Don't let any of your thoughts be confused by the facts. I feel the same about you. Look, in situations like this the truth is often in the middle. Hussein is not hitler but he is no saint. He clearly is evil. Bush is not really being honest but perhaps he is doing what he thinks is correct. Hussein did not mass gas the Kurds (the Iranians did), but he certainly was very brutal with them. Given out horrible record when we meddle around, and given the huge anti-US sentimenat across the board now, I believe within days of us attacking Iraq, there will be huge attacts against US interests (such as blowing up the Sears tower or Mall of america etc), and it will not be done by or with the help of Iraq (but with the help of Saudi Arabia militants, Pakistan, North Korea, and/or Al Quada). I hope Hussein gets taken out, ideally by his people not ours. In time, with a UN inspection team there for years, Hussein will be kept at bay with far less cost than a war). He will eventually fade away, like Castro. Remember him? What about Momar? Almost gone from memory. If we keep troops for years in Iraq and put up a US puppet leader there, I am convinced there will be serious negative consequences down the road. Does this viewpoint strike you as being more rational? M
