False Nadine.

Just because the left does not want to say to the victims of fascism (well, one country dealing with fascism) "We will invade your country, to "liberate" you", does not mean the left has nothing to say.

Saying Saddam was not a threat- in terms of a justification for war, is NOT saying he was an innocent sweet lamb. I am surprised you do not understand that. And if you DO understand it, then you are misstating the case on purpose. Your overgeneralizations about the left, based on your misstatements of one poster's posts, show great poverty of thought.

Here is a question for YOU Nadine. If the US by their actions ends up killing more Iraqis than Saddam would have (and when I say killing, I mean both actually killing, and also setting in to motion events which lead to killing), and if the country ends up under an Islamic theocracy like Iran- just what will the Right have said to the victims of fascism? (victims in Iraq of course- it's not like we really care about them in Korea, or Africa, or Iran...at least not at the moment.)

I don't think the victims of fascism want to hear that the US is on the way over with marines. That's kind of like out of the frying pan in to the fire.
