What Bad Thing Has Saddam Done Lately?

I'll make this short and sweet. I have not seen evidence for a reason to invade Iraq or demand a regime change there.

Okay, Saddam gassed his own people twelve years ago or so. There have been multiple accusations of his development of weapons of mass destruction, including biological and chemical weapons development.

All the TV footage I see of Saddam Hussein is about 10 years old. Show me the evidence.

Let's say that we do nothing about Iraq. What is your assessment of the consequences of that action?

[Mo1]

Gee Fred .. name calling???

[BrooklynGOP]

If President Bush seeks to topple Saddam Hussein, it will be to punish far more serious sins than mere breaches of the 1991 cease-fire agreement.

Mere?

Your game......my rules.

You said: I have not seen evidence for a reason to invade Iraq or demand a regime change there.

You then TOLD people to show you the evidence.

Any fool could see that this was nothing but a circle jerk for your own amusement.

And I chose NOT to play.

[Fred Mertz]

It's just one of many reasons to go in

Great. You're volunteering, no? Or will you send your daughters and sons in?

If oil/proms/curling irons are brought up...you'll know the soaps are on again!

Some of these posts sound downright liberal.

Good. Get lost. And go fight the imaginary war while you're at it.

Oh phooey, you beat me to it.

Take your pick.

I know you didn't ask me but could it be that Putin gets his deal and Iraq sells its oil to us? Saddam goes the way of Khadafi, irrelevant.

[justshe]

Pssssst.........

Gotcha! Now aren't you ashamed?

[DaughterOfAnIwoJimaVet]

Which side of Iwo Jima? hehehe

You know, Fred, a couple of people have told me you're a nice guy. I just don't understand why you insist on making it so damned hard to believe it.

The reason why we haven't already gone in and whooped some ass already is because it takes time to build a firm case.

It takes time to sort through 10 years of intel. Lots has happend in the past 10 yrs.

You can bet your dollar that the powers that be were blowing dust off of the files that have been in the basement a while within 2 hours of the 1st airplane.

Just imagine having to sort through all the bank records of every bank in the world for the last 10 yrs...and thats just to name one.

One year later Sherlock Holmes has more than likely made a strong case that my post #220 is right on.

[Fred Mertz]

That line is so stale.

Sweet heart .. members of my family has served in almost ever American war .. I know full damn well what is involved here ..

My Father was an infantry man in WWII against the germans
