"But the United States still hasn't proved that Saddam poses a threat to anyone other than his own people."
Anyone except Israel, Iran, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia... Have I left anyone out? I guess a knowledge of history or a regard for the truth is too much to expect from a band of ignorant psychopaths. These people wear bedsheets for heaven's sake. They smoke camel dung. Despair, my butt. When we return them to the Neolithic era, then we'll talk despair :)
On a news program I saw an interview with an Arab pulled off the street in Saudi Arabia. He was naming what terrible things America had done to Muslims, and included Kosovo. When reminded that Americans were fighting for Muslims in Kosovo, he smirked and said "Well, that's not how it was told to me."
This is BS.
