Hi Babyblue....Suddam was an "evil" man. I can't call him a human because a "human" wouldn't have done all of those things that he had done to his people,family and country. Saddam was "greedy" and he wanted more and more "power" and he needed to be stopped dead in his tracks. If our Government (military troops) hadn't caught Saddam when they did, I'm afraid that Saddam's issues would have esculated for the worst. More of his people would have been murdered and slaughtered and children and more revenge to the US would have taken place. I believe that our President had the right ideal in going to capture Saddam but now that he has been caught and his exsistence is no longer then we need to make new priorities and changes so our country can get back on track!

I would say that it wasn't a dumb question if you weren't 8 yet, but I'm pretty sure that you're older than that.
Saddam Hussein killed or ordered the killing of over 100,000 of his own people. Look at our own news. Bush fires 8 U.S. attorneys and the democrats are going ballistic (even though Bill Clinton fired 93 of them for the same reason). Imagine the furor if Bush just ordered someone to be killed. Now multiply that by 100,000. Add terrorist friends to this mix and what do you get?
Yes, it was worth it to take him out. If extremists are allowed to take hold of the government, it destabilizes the region. When Hussein was in power, was there peace in the Middle East? No.
These people in the Middle East have been killing each other for thousands of years and will continue for thousands of years to come. There won't be peace because there isn't any money in it.

its a loaded question for the Iraqi people they are definatly better off....at least half of them think so..then there is the other half who revered him..but is it worth the massive loss of life of American troops i am not sure..i am can you really teach democracy to people who force their women to wear those bourka things they are stuck in medieval times and sometimes i get the impression they like it that way but again i am not sure but Saddam was a bad guy

Yes, because he was a man with an itchy finger, just like all of the middle east. blow it up and start over.

No. It was much peaceful over there, when he was in power. All we have done is create more terrorists.

No, because there are other interest involved that we know nothing about and there are many "bad" dictators that are worse than him.
