We fully and cheerfully support the brutal regimes of right-wing dictators all over the world as long as it is strategically in our interests to do so. The American government has no moral qualms about doing so. Saddam Hussein had to go because our strategic interests no longer supported him being in power, and that is the only reason, except of course that he tried to kill our president's daddy. And now we have killed at least thousands of Iraqi civilians with our bombing campaign, etc., and destroyed the Iraqi infrastructure to the point that many Iraqis feel they were better off under Saddam, even with the torture and culture of fear he imposed. We are not in the right morally in Iraq in any way, and are now hated and despised in many parts of the world where we were reasonably well respected. We cared nothing about the Kurds Saddam gassed--Bush 41 abandoned them after they had served their limited purpose. All we have done is left a country that is destroyed and ungovernable, and created many thousands of new terrorists in the region.
