I know it was an objective discussed long before we declared 'the war on terror". I feel they tied it in with 9-11 to gain the support they needed. There may have been a legitimate reason it should have been done, his ties to terrorism are not established to my knowledge. He had biological weapons at one point, and was gaining nuclear power until Isreal knocked out the plant, I think in the late 80's . It doesn't seem he was an immediate threat to our country,I would have felt better if they had spent the billions on border security, disaster preporations, and intelligence gathering. I don't think our governments past or present administrations are idiots, I do think they keep a lot from the common people- who they feel don't have enough interest, knowledge,, education, and intelligence to just be told the facts and make good decisions. So is there an uncommon person on yahoo answers who has the time and knowledge to explain to me why was it important that we get rid of Saddam?
