I figure that smart folks use the globalist idiots' methods and words against them. Kinda like aikido.

The point is, Saddam had shown time and time again that he was a threat to regional peace and showed a long-term tendency to support terrorism. Prior to 9/11, we didn't care much. Afterwards, it became important. Saddam gave us the lever by not adhering to U.N. requirements. We used it. End of story.

It's as simple as that.
