Doesn't mean everyone should spout off about it ad nausem though eithier. It is what it is, and this whole "It's not fair" shit is retarded. Saddam was a fuck who treated his own people like shit and got what he deserved. Yeah, we did go into Iraq for the wrong reasons, but that doesn't mean I'm going to sympathize with a tyrant eithier.
So... should we have gone to North Korea instead? And after that, why don't we make a stop or two in Africa? Are we the international police?
If we are, then what the fuck are we doing NOT going into Darfur?

And yes Iraq DID have WMD's, Reagan sold them to Saddam, and Saddam sold them off before we came knocking.
In this case, the definition of WMD's is varied. He had gas missiles and whatnot, but no A-bombs, H-bombs, or anything conventionally defined as WMDs.
You're assuming that I agree with the war. I don't. Iraq has lots of gold and oil, that's why we are there. The idiot threatened to embargo and sanction us on oil. He played a game of chess and lost, such is life. No, we shouldn't be there, but we are. And what you fail to realize is the Iraqi people WILL be better off without him in power once we finally sort everything out. The women of Iraq have rights now, is that so wrong?
Yes we are the International Police, we have been ever since the rest of the world tore us a new asshole for not getting involved in World War 2. Nothing new is going on, it's been this way for 60 years now. I said in the other thread, damned if we do, damned if we don't. If we do something, people say America is just being a bully. If we don't do something, the same people then say how America should do something because they have the power. It's a catch-22.
I don't think the US should be the only country with the bomb, but countries like North Korea and Iran are prime examples of two countries that SHOULD NOT have an atomic bomb. Kim-Jong-El is a crazy son of a bitch, who would use it on anybody he pleased at the drop of a hat. There is a real threat in this world, bad people do have power in certain places.
