>Even if you see it that way, it seems it would have been more appropriate to have given the Iraqi people their own means to do so. Had this been done (instead of sanctions, which do in fact hurt only the people) we might not be facing the necessity of a major military action which we are now facing.

The problem is, which people? The Iraqi National Congress? It'd take years to train them to be strong enough to take out Saddam.

Of course, had we started in '90, Saddam probably would've been gone by now.
