No, he was a brutal dictator who ignored warnings from two successive American administrations that if he continued his course of action, we'd bomb the snot out of him.
Which is exactly what we wound up doing in 1999.

So why don't the Dems apply the same criteria to this war as they do to the Iraq war. Their criticism of the motives for the Iraq war sounds hollow because of this. Saddam was a brutal dictator who ignored warnings from successive US administrations and the UNSC (17 resolutions)and we bombed the snot out of him. How is it different?
