Oh, I get the current 'policy' now. Apparently since 'we' can't do anything about North Korea, 'we' decide that bombing a third world nation that did not present a direct and present threat to the borders of this nation is a viable solution. Sure, that makes sense..

It works for me! But seriously do you actually believe that Saddam did NOTHING to deserve being overthrown?He didn't attempt to assasinate Bush41 and the Emire of Kuwait?He didn't pay off the familys of Palistinian suicide bombers?He didn't support terrorist traing camps?He didn't torture,rape and kill his own people? oh yea, none of our buisiness so long as he didn't directly attack the continental US right?

If he did, it was quite a bit less than Arafat and the Saudis. Seen an invasion of Saudi Arabia? How about a dismissal of Arafat as any sort of leader? Nope. One's our 'ally' and the other is accepted as a leader of a bunch of squatters

He didn't support terrorist traing camps?

Again we could sit here and name half the Arab world that does that and still continues. Any plans to eradicate them? Thought not. The pressing 'reason' was WMDs

He didn't torture,rape and kill his own people?

Wow, you know I went over and over the Constitution and for the life of me could not find 'to prevent torture, rape, and killing of another nation's people' by their leader. Considering especially that some of this 'killing' occurred under the eye of the US in the 1980s with nothing done then. Ah, but Iraq was the lesser of two evils then wasn't it? Funny how policy changes on the whim of public opinion and polls. One reason why I do not support either party working outside the bounds of the Constitution and will call every politician on it no matter what party

oh yea, none of our buisiness so long as he didn't directly attack the continental US right?

Can you find something contrary to that point as outlined in the Constitution?
