What a whacked view they have. Saddam committing 1.5 million plus murders over 35 years, nerve-gassing 40,000 Kurds in his own country, and torture-murdering citizens in torture chambers all over the country for the sheer pleasure of it is the kind of "stability" that they want? Our whacked out view for a couple hundred years was that, beyond diplomatic pressure, SUCH was none of our damned business!
How long do you think it will take us to get around to Zimbabwe?

It became our business when Saddam started attacking American interests and funding attacks on US citizens. And you should be ashamed for condoning the behavior of a guy who is filling mass-graves with his own people for fun. Saddam doesn't bother you a bit but U.S. intervention in the evil that he visits on his own people and the rest of the world is terrible. What a wonderful view of the world.
