>>As Americans grow justifiably frustrated with watching fellow Americans die in Iraq, it is easy for them to forget what motivated the United States to intervene in the first place: a brutal man who terrorized his people. <<

If that was just one of the reasons why we are in Iraq, it certainly isn't anywhere close to the top of the list. If it was, we would be in North Korea, Zimbabwe, Rwanda and the others where the meltdown of democratic accountability and respect for human rights and the rule of law has and is occurring.

I had a...disscusion with some people a while ago on this. My reply, "Just because we're not doing A..B...or C does that mean we shouldn't do D?"
