    Because Saddam has the largest military in the region, except for Iran, and is willing to use weapons that even Iran wouldn't contemplate.

    Because every time we disengage, the situation worsens and the entire world demands that we get involved again.

    They did bomb Saddam's nuclear reactor in 1981, and a damn good thing they did, too; otherwise, the coalition might have faced nukes in the Gulf War. A nuclear Saddam cannot be risked.

    Wrongo, boyo; the US gets out when the job is done (and sometimes TOO early), and its most actions have been to feed or free Muslims - in Somalia, Bosnia, Kosovo, Kuwait and Afghanistan. You come off like a mindless anti-US memebot.

    The definition of democracy is self-rule, therefore truly democratic countries are not ruled by other countries. Your stand is self- contradictory, ignorant and confused.
