Personally I believe that we should not have gotten involved in the Gulf War. It was none of our business. That being said, I can respect someone believed in liberating Kuwait or overthrowing Hussein.
This embargo, however, is a crime against humanity. As was the turkey shoot in 1991.
I don't see any answer yet. Could it be that you just like to sit back and say "you shouldn't have done this," without ever going out on a limb and saying "we should try this." If so... you might be a liberal.
