I also think it would have been relevant to figure out if Saddam's dictatorship was equal to other dictatorships we manage to work with (in terms of vileness), and find peaceful solutions with- like China, for example. Talk about brutal; talk about killing lots of people- yet I don't want to invade them either.

Sometimes invasions just aren't the right option- often even.

"acting as badly, or worse, than Saddam is not the way Americans really should behave, because we have lost the moral high ground."

Oh, have we acted "as badly, or worse, than [sic] Saddam"? Please explain.
