This sounds a lot like the wetlands nonsense in our own country. Saddam was evil, but now that the swamps are drained, what's wrong with making it into something productive instead of letting it go back to a worthless bog. I guess envirowhackism has come to Iraq.

It don't give a damn about the environment, but the Arabs who live in the Marshes need those bogs to survive.

If Bush had drained the Everglades, or (somehow) filled in the Grand Canyon, or poured cement down Old Faithful, or clear-cut Yosemite, wonder how many leftists would have called for him to be overthrown?

But Saddam, naw, he was such a good America hater that it was OK when he deliberately damaged the environment, whether lighting up Kuwaiti oil fields or draining marshes.

The marsh areas covered a vast expanse and sustained a population of some 200.000. Saddam's action might be described as ecological terrorism.
