So why do cons tolerate Mugabe, mullahs in iran, north korea regime, sudan atrocities and so on. Lets be real. Saddam was considered low hanging fruit and we easily won the war. What we didnt count on was post war. The others arent so easy or in a critical area like the mideasat or involved with oil. We should treat these issues as grownups.
Personally i think history will judge removal of saddam as important. Whether it ultimately improves things much is debatable at this point. The collapse of the Soviet Union was a great thing but it has made the world more complicated for both russia and the US. Doesnt mean we should reconstitute USSR or saddam for that matter. mike
