This may seem a bit simplisitic and problaby pretty flawed..But..What does it matter if Saddam commited a horrible act a month ago, 10 years ago or 20 years ago?

Its still the same guy, and he still did it. Its not neccarily the same thing with the US and other counties, heres why.

Every 4 (or somtimes less then that) or 8 years leadership in the US changes. Diffrent cabinet, and in some cases a diffrent senate. It was 2 diffrent people that are in the White House now and when we used Agent Orange.

But Saddam Hussien is still Saddam Hussien. The same guy that no matter how long ago, has commited horrendus crimes against Humannity.

Alot of people go off on Kissenger, but you know, Kissenger doesnt hold hardly any power anymore.

I am not saying the US is perfect, we have most certaintly have had our screw ups, and no one is proud of them. But I think not going after Saddam is a huge screw up on the entire worlds part.

I cant see why anyone would want someone like him to remain in office. Why? Why do you want a mad man to retain power? Why does Chirac and Schroder want him to stay in office?

Its comes down too there oil contracts right? At least thats what I get out of it. So why arent those two ever harrassed about being money hungry oil mongers like the US is.

Just some thoughts.

Just incase anyone has any ideas, this isnt a 'retalation' or 'the other side' of Mojos thread, they just happen to have similar titles.
