We are so far apart in terms of our POVs I see no point in trying to discuss it. Your POV is noted, and I've certainly seen it before.

"Worse for whom? Ask the Kurds or the Marsh Arabs, see what response you get. I do realize it's tidier for outside powers when order is maintained by a dictator quietly shovelling the bodies into mass graves "legally".

excellent response, nadine...

i have seen over and over this 'hindsight' apoligia for saddam which literally boils down to nothing more than he made the 'trains run on time'....while his killing was methodical, purposeful, and unabated....

i wonder what it is about 'slam dunk' case for wmd's that they don't understand...

post 9/11, to ignore the 'slam dunk' evidence would have been incomprehensible

<edit>

i see your respondent has no meaningful rebuttal, again i reiterate....

EXCELLENT RESPONSE

I never retreated from a ball that was coming right at me. I hit it......or at least tried.

And I never played a game or joined a team or took a stand unless I was willing to give 100%.

Those who did start and didn't do the same were eventually kicked to the curb by everyone involved.
