Re: Bush is attempting to enforce the resolutionS the UN passed over the past 10 or so years and he is considered to be like Hitler and Saddam, despite all of his documented atrocities, is considered the victim. That amazes me

Shouldn't how an UN resolution would be enforced be in the hand of UN ? The majority of UN now say the Bush way is not the right way, for the moment.

The reason why the rest of the world(outside US) consider Bush more scary than Saddam is the way he talks and acts, brushing aside UN, NATO etc. and everything else that is in disagreement with him, withdraw from treaties signed which he considers not good for him and US is the most powerful nation on this planet. It amazes me why the American people can't understand why people are scared. It is like your local police tell you that the court doesn't matter, they are going to interpret the law and protect the community in their way, and only their way.

You honestly think that Saddam is not a threat to the Iraqi people, to the Middle Eastern region and ultimately the world?

He is a dictator and bad, there is no question about it and having him removed won't be a bad thing. However, I don't see him as a threat to the area or the world. Even Pentagon said he is now much weaker than he was during the last Gulf war.
