It is well past time for the people of Iraq to hold themselves and their leadership responsible for their situation... As long as people accept the argument, in any form, that our sanctions are starving Iraqi children, they are missing the point...
99% agreement here. My only concern with obliterating Saddam is the thought that, in this case, we know what we're dealing with. Who's going to be in there to replace him? Even if it's someone who loves us, the pro/anti-American sentiment changes with the direction of the wind in that part of the world, and always will, particularly with our ties to Israel. I just don't want to see us get in a spot where we end up down the line with someone even worse than Hussein there. Not that I think it's enough of a concern to prevent us from acting.
