So basically, you're saying that we shouldn't take out Hussein because we failed to do it once.

You're a cop. Does the same go for murderers who get away with one due to poor policing? Do they then have a license to kill anyone they please, because we let them get away with it once?

Truth be told, I was against the first Gulf War. And after we did go to war, we had the "murderer" in our hands and let him go.

And not only did he go, he went and murdered people we told we would protect and support. Meaning the Kurds.

Is that right about the Kurds? I have yet to read anything on my own or have anyone show me that we did not abandon them.

And if it's true that we abandon the Kurds, after we told them we'd protect them, then shame on us.

Also, while we're having a discussion, what about all the veterans of the Gulf War who are trying to draw attention to the government on the medical problems they are having since the war? There have been a few posts on FR about this and I didn't hear anybody calling them 'sorry peaceniks' etc.
