I expected such nonsense in a response. I simply put forth a point of view to ponder what the heck is going on over there. Don't waste our time with your brainwashed drivel. If you don't have a legitimate response, why respond ?
IMO I support the State of Israel. But Bush's foreign policy based on lies is over the edge for me.

Just two leaders doing what they thought was best for their countries.
Each felt they did what was right. http://www.guardian.co.uk/Iraq/Story/0,,1980988,00.html

saddamm did things for many reasons, but i seriously doubt he considered what was best for his country. only what was best for HIMSELF. not quite sure the point about saddam feeding some birds. showed more compassion to animals than to his fellow man. hell, hitler was good to his dog too. well, til he poisoned one to make sure that stuff worked before he and wifey committed suicide.

I did not intend to offend you or anyone else with my statement that both leaders did what they felt was in the best interests of their countries. It is difficult for many to see beyond personal bias and the propaganda that is fed to all of us. They lead to opinions, strongly held, however, not factual history. Facts are proven by time. I will not present facts concerning dictatorships: Manarchos-Phillipines, Mobutu-Zaire, Pinochet-Chile, Suharto-Indonesia. If you need information on them, "google" will educate as to the administration that supported them. Here is some historical information regarding Saddam Hussein. Note item #5. http://www.netscape.com/viewstory/20...804&frame=true Again, let's debate facts. Please refrain from attacks based on whatever "political party" your speculation construes. This doesn't address the topic. Yes, I agree that Saddam Hussein and Hitler were very bad dictators.

I find that Yogi Berra's words might make a bit of sense, "The future ain't what it used to be." Then again, maybe your mention of Hitler sparked a historical fact, a despotic leader seeking to unleash a fantasy on those whose minds he's gained control over by telling them that they were the best, entitled, and needed to follow his imperialistic agenda. Doing less would question the wisdom of his actions and be seen as "unpatriotic". Britain stood alone against the insanity of his actions, despite their failed attempt to negotiate a reasonable outcome with a madman. http://www.johndclare.net/RoadtoWWII5.htm Is it any wonder that many people see similar cause for alarm by the actions of another despot on March 20, 2003? Are the motives seen differently? One was to find land for Arian farmers, one to find oil for an addicted populace, and sources for well connected energy brokers. Yes, my guess like yogi's is that the future ain't what it used to be, but then again, maybe it is.
