"Why do you persist hurling a litany of personal attacks?"

Christ almighty! You call the following a litany of personal attacks:

This is a legitimate controversy. You can discuss issues. You don't need to toss your mouth off like that.

Can I get you a nurse or something? Sheesh!

"The sentence that you quoted was precisely the reason why
Saddam was a threat & his removal necessary
"

Don't you GET IT????? Nobody disputes that Saddam was a threat. DUH?? The dispute is over the legal basis for invasion. Does the excuse of self defense meet rational criteria to support invasion? And how can the rational basis of the self defense claim be fleshed out in legalese so that this dispute is not so polarized in the future. How much of a "threat" justifies invasion? To what extent should response to a "threat" be legally sanctioned?

These are the legitimate questions that intelligent people must address. In the meantime YOU can cut and paste your links like a little boy--screeching that Saddam was a bad guy and violated sanctions. And you can pretend that people dispute that and that you are waving the banner for some sort of point. So go ahead. Post another 50 links that SH was a bad guy and therefore the invasion is justified. Simplify the discussion down to a crawling level and then take a break for some pablum and then cut and paste some more irrelevancies that address something in your own private nightmare world. I'll check in with you later. You can misrepresent me and tell me I'm being mean to you. And you can tell me what a bad guy SH is and pretend that it is a revelation. And cut and paste a million links to emphasize your inability to think your way through a loaf of bread.
