We have to attack Iraq and throw him out. He is a brutal leader.
The people gased were armed and fighting to overthrow Saddam’s government.
I guess you could say gas is against the Geneva convention but so is attacking a country without declaring war, or that has not attacked. To be clear one of those two things has to be true.
We were providing air support to the Kurds by enforcing the no fly zone. We were providing them weapons so they were shooting at Saddam.

    The difference is Saddam stuck his tongue out and shoke his fist at the Bushes after they had a falling out. Maliki should keep them real close or he’ll be murdered too.

    Hasn’t the hstory of American foreign policy taught you anything? There is a world of difference between innocent civilians killed by friends of the US and innocent civilians killed by enemies of the US.

    The former are communists and/or terrorists by definition. ;)
