"Did you ever tell everyone what the “real reason to dispose Saddam” was?"

I believe that I did mention it a few times over the past several years.

For the information of everybody who did not read my posts, or have "forgotten", please scan this:

The real reason was for the money. Not just a few hundred billion, either, ALL of the money.

FYI: Saddam Hussein was planning to sell his oil in rubles, not dollars. Effectively taking the U.S. dollar out of position as the currency of last resort.

Now we couldn't allow that to happen, could we? So he had to "go".

So you believe he was fighting an economic war against us?

How is that different than, say, firing on our aircraft. Economic sabotage is warfare none the less.

So not only did Saddam break a treaty with us, he fired on our aircraft, attempted to assassinate a former President, fund terrorist operations all over the world, and also he was trying to collapse our economy.

Thanks for adding one more nail in Saddam’s coffin and further justification for the need to take him out.
