um yeah sure

invading a neighboring state over disputed historical territory claims and totally blowing off any shred of credibilty still retained by the UN was certainly not destabilizing to regional security

and the Saudis and other Gulf States (upon whom most of the free world, NOT just the US, depends for energy, and whose oilfields and coastal ports could have also been claimed by Saddam) were quite OK with it - surely Saddam’s invasion wouldn’t have set any precedent for other rogue states if it had not been challenged

major sarc

The SCUD statement (blame the Jooooos) is one of the dumbest accusations I’ve heard since 1992

In the islamosphere, stability is a relative concept. We had some then. Now we have a shiitestorm that didn’t have to happen. I bet Mr. Netanyahu wishes he could put the clock back twelve years, even if he can’t say so in public. So do I.
