"I fear we are fighting the right war, for the wrong reasons ... but the net result will still be the removal of an evil dictator who needs removing."
What are the "right" reasons, for you? (I'm simply asking-not making a smart comeback)
To: truth_seeker
The right reasons? Because Saddam is a dictator who oppresses his people .. who thoroughly deserves his moniker, "the butcher of baghdad".
The wrong reasons? Some sort of wooly-headed warm-and-fuzzy revenger for September 11 - when there appears to be no logical nexus between the two events.
NB: I'm not saying we shouldn't hunt down and kill all those responsible for September 11 - or Bali.
We should. Coldly, methodically, and until the vermin are all exterminated.
But THIS war ... the one against Saddam Hussein ... is muddying those waters, and making the job harder.
