Can we really afford to take the chance of having a terroist organization obtain weapons of mass destruction from a unstable country?
The oil in Iraq may play a issue in the cost to rebuild Iraq. Nothing more.

Ok, your concerns are notable. But do you really have any reason to believe that whatever govt we INSTALL there will be any more stable? After all, it doesnt appear that saddam has done anything aggressive in the last dozen years, maybe because he knows he would be crushed if he did. And do you really think that doing this will result in less terrorism and not more? Nobody is saying saddam is a cool guy, but think about what you are saying here. This will result in more trouble, not less.
