And we are spending billions for it, Iran is doing what it likes with nuclear power and the whole area is less stable. Good one Bush and Blair.

damn that some wild numbers by the Washington Post... I hope that's not true... I lack some more sources for this story I kinda a doubt the way they got to that number...
Anyhow all I am saying... what Saddam did to keep this from happening was not okay and it was not right... it may have saved some lives but it never justifies killing 5000 children and women and 250.000 others for that matter...
The means to the goal was not okay....
Anyhow it's a tough issue... because I do not support the Iraq war per say. I am just casting light on some of the aspects that may count towards a war since the contrary seemed to be the essence of this thread.
