As far as I'm concerned Forsyth is another preeminent moron.
Saddam supported terrorists. Period. He gave money to Palestinians whose family members committed terrorism. He gave medical care and asylum to terrorists. We have more than enough documents outlining Saddam's assistance to terrorists.
As far as the situation in Iraq, and I've held this opinion since 2003, if in 2010 we have not obtained our goals of a stable peaceful Iraq then I'll question our policies but here and now not even 4 years since the operation began I say to big winded pundits of no consequence, go jump in a lake.
It is an amazing time we live in. Hussein was routinely firing missiles at our pilots in the no-fly zone in the leadup to the Iraq War and yet that is not considered legitimate grounds for going to war him. In times past though, simple words from the other side were enough to justify going to war against the aggressor (a la Hitler's declaration of war on the United States). Now apparently one has to have thousands of one's countrymen killed on their home soil, before it is considered legitimate to go to war against the attacker. Such lunacy does not bode well for the health of countries that such a high hurdle for responding to attacks on their citizens.
