Even the people who deny the holocaust admit Saddam was trying to eradicate an entire ethnic group(Kurds), yet you still claim we shouldn't have gone into Iraq. Why?

Wait there's more.
He drained the Marshes where the Marsh Arabs lived, driving them out and destroying the ecosystem.
He also set all the Kuwaiti oil wells on fire, causing tons of pollution to drift into the air.
He dropped chemical bombs on the town of Hallabjah in 1988 killing 5,00 Men, Women, and Children and severely disfiguring thousands of others.
1 million Iranians died in the Iran / Iraq war he started.
$20,000 paid to every family of Palestinian Suicide Bombers.
Abu Nidal was a guest of Saddam in Baghdad. Saddam gave him safe haven. If you do not know who Abu Nidal was, he was the mastermind and leader of the Achiolle Lauro ship hijacking where and elderly American Jewish man in a wheel chair was shot in the head and dumped overboard. His name was Leon Klinghoffer. Abu escaped and was living in Baghdad under Saddam's protection.
The world gave Saddam 12 years and 17 chances to change.

What part of the "Us does not run the world" do you republicans not get. Remember 9/11 Saddam had nothing to do with that. So lets get the bastards that do.

open a history book... his genocidal purges were pretty much over... in fact... they were over about 10 years ago...
it's like going to a party at a bar, a year after the bar goes out of business...
what part of "we're not in the 1980s anymore" don't you understand?
I guess you're going to go to Darfur in about 20 years to stop the genocide too?
I'm sure all the MILLIONS that have died with Republicans being 20 years behind current events don't mind...
hey... I think Gengis Kahn is doing some genocide... want to go invade mongolia?

he was doing this is ni the 80s. that's why we had a gulf war.
this war was started on 'bad intellegence' aka lies.
I still don't understand why we aren't stopping the GENOCIDE in Darfur or the GENOCIDE in Bosnia, you know those countries that havn't made us look like asses and don't have oil

Saddam was nothing compared to what's going on in many African countries. You want to talk about genocide? How about Darfur? Why aren't we over there????

Oh, now genocide is the reason we invaded Iraq? I thought it was WMD or democracy or something?

Sadly, with all of the intelligence that they claim to have they just don't understand the meaning of the word. And the implications of the word are far above their IQ levels!

Oh! Was that the reason we went? Don;'t kid yourself, Bush doesn't care about genocide.. he cared about atoning for daddy and for oil for his big business pals.
