The Iraqis are actually terrorized and oppressed as a people - that
much is true. In Iraq we have a regime that is a danger both to its own
people and to the peoples of surrounding nations - as the 15-0 UN
Security Council resolution (including Syria) recently affirmed. Bosnia
has no oil, nor does Kosovo, and we rescued them when Europe
shirked the job and the UN condemned us - for saving Muslims from
another fascist - Milosevic (currently undergoing war crimes prosecution
in the hague - Saddam's destination, should he live to make it there).
Iraq is chief among the offenders as far as WMD's go, for Saddam
Hussein is unique among sitting rulers in having employed WMD's, both
against neighboring nations and against ethnic undergroups in his own
country. Remember that the US war would not be with the people of
Iraq; they are chief among those who need rescuing from Saddam's
regime, and like the Afghans under the Taliban, they would be most
grateful for such a deliverance, and most will not resist their own
liberation (they didn't resist much before, and the US didn't follow
through in helping them, instead leaving them to Saddam's tender
mercies - a shameful mark upon my country which I, and the Iraqis,
would love to see rectified).
