<< Saddam is the central player in the instability of the region>>

That's not true.

Syria and Iran are much bigger supporters of terrorism than Iraq. Al Quaeda's money comes mostly from Saudi Arabia.

Militarily, Iraq is one of the weakest nations in the region.

For all his brutality and savagery, Saddam is the reason why Iraq is in one piece. You will know that after he is removed and the US army is stuck dealing with the factional fights.

This has begun to happen in Afghanistan already, but the media is too preoccupied with Iraq.
