Et voila le problem. "taken out Saddam". 1 man. No problem but
that's not (A) What you did nor (B) what you really mean.

Might look good in a Steven Segal or Bruce Willis flick but it ain't shoot

You wanted to change the entire gov. Taking out Saddam as a man per se
wouldn't have been all that hard. Hard yes but not trillions of dollars
& thousands of dead Americans hard.

But you wanted more than that. You wanted to get rid of the Baathist gov
& thus change the entire way a reasonably sized country was run.

No reason to think that.

Indeed just as some refused to submit to the judeo-communist-slavic threat
& thus posed an even greater threat.
