From: Randall Parker 

I was arguing with Gene about his own contention that Saddam didn't
obstruct the UNSCOM inspectors.

Gullible about what exactly? I'm very pleased that a guy who used to escort
his sons when they were still children to visit torture chambers to watch
real live torturings is overthrown. I think that is great. I think it is
great that people are no longer being fed into meat grinders too.

As for deliverably weapons of mass destruction: So if he had abandoned
working on them would you prefer that the meat grinders had continued
operating?

Also, would you have preferred instead of invading the place that in order
to hobble his attempts to do WMD development that the US had continued to
enforce a sanctions regime that wasn't hurting Saddam personally because
Saddam chose to beggar the masses and deny them drugs nnd clean water
instead? You preferred the high infant mortality rate and the meat grinders
and the oppressive regime to a US invasion?
