Right, Saddam invaded Kuwait - which last time I checked was not sovereign US territory - therefore it was not our business.

If you believe that an armed invasion that would allow Saddam Hussein to eventually control 2/3 of the entire World's know oil reserves is "none of our business", it just proves how utterly out of touch with reality you are.

And what was Saddam going to do with all that oil? If you think we would not have done business with him or he with us then you are utterly out of touch. It would have meant that the who's who of the GOP would have their business connections in Kuwait disrupted.
