What's great about people like you Sellam, is that
every time you think something like this, you get to
have egg on your face when it turns out wonderful.

I remember all the doom and gloom and naysayers, and
the predictions of thousands of bodybags for the
Afghanistan War on Terrorism a year and half ago.

People thought that those in favor of that were dumb
too...

I am not someone who loves war. But, I am someone who
believes in backing up rules, laws, and civilization
with penalties when the rules are broken or in the
case of Hussein, not only broken but flouted.

It will be over fairly quickly once it starts, and as
before (in 1981) it will be a rout.

But, this time we will take Hussein out of power and
set the people in Iraq free. Iran is probably next on
the President's list, and then North Korea. Unless Kim
Jong Il pushes to be the next in line and won't wait
his turn.

It's so wasteful for people like Hussein, Il and the
leadership in Iran to do the kind of things that cause
this, rather than dedicating themselves to providing
the best possible lives and economy for their people.

Since we still have people here in the U.S. who think
ideaology is more important than doing the right
thing, I'm not surprised there are similar people
elsewhere...

I hope the human race outgrows that someday...

It's ok for you to think people in favor of taking
Hussein out are stupid.... It only means you don't
have a clue what it's all about...

Hopefully getting egg on your face a few more times
will make you tired of being wrong...
