Re stories of rape & murder - consider the possibility that most are just that. "Roam Baghdad night clubs and choose women to rape and kill", indeed.... You really BELIEVE that??? :-) If you are so concerned about the suffering of foreign nations, I suggest you take a hard look at the life Pakistanis lead under that dictator with the bad wig (a US ally) or the life in Saudi Arabia (another US ally) as a woman. The fact is that your administration and your media is pointing you in the direction of Iraq, not because it is singularly egregious in human rights issues but because they want to attack it anyway. Besides, since when is it OK for one country to invade another because they feel the citizens are not happy there? we ARE justified in going to war to force him to keep his deal which he has avoided for so long It is UN's "deal", not that of the US, and only UN can decide what to do if its resolutions are not respected. Not you. Not your country. And not your trigger happy president.

"Besides, since when is it OK for one country to invade another because they feel the citizens are not happy there?" Muslim Albanians thank their lucky stars for the unilateral action the U.S. took to stop Milosevic's genocide. Zonder puts respect for soveriengty ahead of all other considerations. If her view held for Milosevic, there'd be no Albanians living in Kosovo today.
