I was watching an interview with Fred Thompson, and I heard something that was really interesting: If we didn't go over to Iraq, the Middle-East would be more a more dangerous place now. The reason being, Iran is trying to build a nuclear weapon. Iran and Iraq were never friends and even went to war with each other.
With Iran building nuclear weapons, Saddam would be compelled to make nuclear weapons of his own. This would be just like the conflict between India and Pakistan, only both leaders have shown that they are not afraid to take someones life.
Don't get me wrong, the situation in Iraq is really bad right now, but could two insane Islamic country leaders that have nuclear weapons be any better? The president of Iran has said he is going to blow Israel off the face of the map, and Saddam had killed tons of his own people. I think nuclear weapons in the hands of those maniacs would be a whole lot worse...but that is just my opinion.
What do you think?
