Also, do you really think a third tier country with 25 million people can threaten the rest of the world?

Look what 19 ragheads did.

We're not going after Iraq; we're going after Saddam. That ONE MAN can threaten the stability of the Middle East, and has.

He won't be missed, especially by those 25 million Iraqis.

We're doing them a favor.

Well, we're going after Saddam and Iraq's WMD. If it were just a matter of taking out Hussein, we could do so fairly easily with some Spec Ops assassination units. But we need to secure and destroy Iraq's massive stores of WMD, some of which might be loaded on Scuds, and that's going to require a much larger military effort.
