"The people of Iraq were better off with Saddam than they will be under this "new democracy""
How were they better off?
Saddam's defense team on board!!!!
They did not have Fundamentalist terrorists running through their streets killing innocent men , women and children.They had electricity,fuel and jobs .
When this new "democracy" comes into being the women will be chattel property with few if any rights.
They had security--if they didn't cross the regime, the same kind of security that Stalinist Russia enjoyed, the security that prisoners in a minimum security prison enjoy.
