All you hear about is suicide bombers everyday. When Sadam ran the country prior to our first illegal war in 1991 it was the most progressive secular country in the middle east. Why is it that we support regressive regimes like Saudi Arabia?

Progressive????? Buying Russian arms, slipping money and cheap oil under the table to France, paying off UN inspectors, killing hundreds of thousands of his own people is far from progressive!

We wouldn't sell them any. Who are we to tell anyone who they can sell to? How many of their people did we kill with our so called shock and awe and embargos? Why don't we attack N. Korea? Oh, that's right, they might actually fight back.While we messed around in Iraq, N. Korea actually developed WMD's. We only pick on countries that can't fight back. We sure showed them who was boss in Grenada and Panama. What a joke we have beome.

Many nations and the congress agreed Saddam had to go. See how it works? Go back to your Ripple.
