From: "Antti Kurenniemi" 

Alrighty. I did not march. What I would have liked to see is US helping the
UN. UN was quite toothless, but IMO largely because the US did not back
it's actions (for example by not paying their fees (or whatever they are
called)). Had the US and UN joined forces, I honestly believe there could
have been a peaceful resolution to this. Saddam gone and less lives lost
than now. That's my opinion.

I do not nor have I ever been in favor of Saddam Hussein, just like I have
never been in favor of any tyrant or dictator. I am also not in favor of
*any* country starting a war no matter what the reasoning is, as long as
there is some possibility to avoid it. This time there was a lot of
possibilities. This war is wrong.
