i agree, this war was planned a long time ago but your interpretation of those who oppose this war indicates you are not bothering to listen...i have never heard anyone in opposition who has ever implied saddam is anything but horrible & needs to go...however, the manner in which the usa is going about this is what so many object to & indeed in this past week the actions by the usa have created many new enemies in the muslim world- this is what so many predicted would happen...
i heard a very good point made recently but i can't recall by whom (this is directly related to list i posted of places the usa bombed & not one of them resulted in a gov't of democracy)- the point that was made was that democracy HAS often resulted when the people of a country rise up to overthrow a leader (usually with the support of the usa but not in the sense of an invasion or bombing etc)... however, as many have noted, establishing a democracy in iraq does not seem to be the goal of this invasion...its about doing business >War with Iraq was inevitable, but to listen to all of the people who oppose this war you would think that Saddam is being persecuted when in reality he is the persecutor. Is the left so willing to oppose the war that they turn a blind eye toward the human atrocities that are committed by Saddam? <
