I'm all for toppling Saddam. By whom? Personally, I'm not in favor of the US toppling Saddam. OTOH, I would love to see a homegrown or regional force take care of him. But frankly I don't see him as a US responsibility. We can't turn every tyrant out of business, even though we seemed to try some time back. And I don' t really favor the globalization of the Monroe Doctrine.

I'm not sure that I support the idea of an American attack to topple Saddam. I'd love to see him removed for power but there is no solid evidence of any link to 9/11 and it might seem to much like we are just using 9/11 as an excuse to get rid of anyone who pissed us off. But then I don't think Iraq is going to allow inspectors in or other wise curb its development of ballistic missiles and weapons of mass destruction and I'd hate to see Saddam with nuclear missiles.
