Prove that he was not a threat then.

“Prove that he was not a threat then.”

Actually that is our job to prove that he was a threat. But churchillbuff flat out ignores facts. I honestly don’t believe he is a freeper or is playing devils advocate to see what people say.

Prove that he was not a threat then."""

Prove that he was. He didn't have a military -- army, navy or air force - worth squat. He was hemmed in by sanctions and overflight patrols. His country was poorer than dirt. He didn't have WMDs -- as Bush has publicly said. (Bush says we had bad intelligence and that it turns out Saddam didn't have WMDs). He was less a threat to us than Cuba, and I don't hear anybody on FR arguing for invading Cuba.
