Fair enough Luke, I'm glad that you see whole picture.

Just like Bush, Saddam is not a good man. But the Iraqi people's suffering has a great deal to do with the fact that we destroyed the infrastructure of their country in 1991 and the sanctions we have placed on Iraq in terms of imports and exports. For instance they have great difficulty keeping livestock alive because of certain essential drugs we do not allow them to import in case they try to use them against us. More to the point, surely the people of Iraq should be the ones who decide if they are to be "put out of their misery" and I assure you, they do not.

However, you are the boss in this situation and assuming there are no more comments relating to this I will refrain from posting again on this topic in this thread.
