You think that doing nothing to Saddam will cut down on those who want to join the terrorists? If anything, it would make things worse. For eight years, this country has been attacked and those who were responsible were never brought to justice....don't you think that makes this country weaker if we do nothing? They see us as weak and unable or not interested in keeping ourselves safe and that creates the illusion that it is ok to attack the United States cause they are not going to do anything about it anyway.

Do you for one minute believe that the countries these terrorists are from sit around and debate the attacks done to the United States. I don't think their are those who march and protest the attacks on our country....if given a chance to completely wipe us out I know they would do it!

There are terrorists who would push the button to kill all of us if they had a button. No doubt Saddam would also like to have such a button although I doubt he would push it if it meant instant death for him. The question is whether toppling Saddam makes any difference to a terrorist and I say it will not. If anything they will be heartened at seeing us waste our energy lashing out at a regime that they hate anyway.
