I think that answers Quex's question... So I don't have to give an answer.

Well I feel hopeless and powerless. The president won't listen, so I don't know what can be done unless a bomb drops on Fort Benning.

And I would not underestimate Bush. I think he's every bit as bad as Hitler and Hussein, and even if not, bad enough!

The purpose of that question was this: I would like to hear suggestions as to what should have been done about Saddam Hussein that do not involve time travel. I haven't heard any practical suggestions, just the assertion that since the US at one time supported Hussein (which I acknowledge was absolutely wrong, and which many people who have been aware of it have decried all along, this is not a matter of controversy between us) that it should have left him in power.

Should he have been asked nicely to either stop doing awful things or to leave the country? That was tried, and dragged out for years.

Or should he have just been left to do as he liked?

The answer to that question should not have anything at all to do with George Bush, or what American policy toward Saddam was 15 years ago.

I'm all for shutting down the School of the Americas, and I am also very glad to see the court ruling Lawrence posted today.

I don't see these attitudes as contradictory to also being in favor of ousting Hussein, in fact they seem very complementary to me.

Maybe try to get rebel groups to overthrow him.

Was there anything remotely good about him? I see practically nothing! You think he's bad, why do you think I'm silly if I see him as evil? Which he is. But not as bad as all his hardcore following, who probably get their rocks off on all those torture photos.

Well yr right, and I didn't suggest otherwise. I just hate that it was Bush who stopped Saddam. He didn't even do it 'cause he cared about human rights.
