You're correct, Win never said that he believed Iraq was peaceful under Saddam. I posted that I thought that we were going to attack Iraq as a way of achieving peace in the region. Sometimes you have to fight in order to have peace. As Thomas Jefferson said, "The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants. It is its natural manure." I infer from the fact that Win repeatedly mocks my position that he disagrees with it. After all, if he agreed with it, he would not mock it. Since it is clear to me that he disagrees with me, the question is, what does he disagree with? Does he disagree with the fact that sometimes one must fertilize the tree of liberty with the blood of patriots and tyrants? Or does he disagree that Saddam is a tyrant?
