"This is telling: There was not a PEEP from these people when the rape rooms and shredders were having their way with Saddam's victims."
Actually the were some peeps from Amnesty International and others that the UN Sanctions(not Saddam) against Iraq caused 100,000 children to starve to death annually.
The moral bankruptcy of the Left can be seen by their own claims.
If it was true that, prior to the Iraq War, 100,000 children were dying annually due to UN sanctions, then why are they not now pointing out that the Iraq War put an end to that horrific number of deaths?
Why does the Left completely ignore the fact that an immediate U.S. pullout will bring about the slaughter of hundreds of thousands of Iraqi Shiites and Kurds when the Sunni Baathists reestablish their despotism over the Shiite and Kurdish majorities?
The sick fact of the matter is that the Left pretends to care about the deaths, real or fabricated, of only those Iraqis whose deaths they can blame on America.
An even sicker fact is that the Left will gleefully accept the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Iraqi Shiites and Kurds as long as that is the price that must be paid for an American military humiliation.
I was quoting someone else. My comment was that the American and Brits in this group are guilty of treason.
Interesting point you raise. So, by deposing Saddam and thus enabling the sanctions to be lifted, the US has saved, what, 250,000 children from starvation?
