Or Pol Pot was creating the killing fields in Cambodia, a consequence of American carpet bombing the country in the 60s. And you can not do anything but admire the way the US treated the Chinese after their invasion and genecide in Tibet. Giving China "Prefered trading nation status" must have really taught them a lesson.
Their are many more examples, what make Saddam different? Money, power, father, politics.
I saw Tony Blair on BBC world and thought he has a powerful arguement. Then I saw the evidence Colin Powell presented to the world as a justification for a war.
A report that they had found one of the factories producing chemical weapons. The reporters all rushed up there to investigate only to find nothing. Just an ordinary village witha lot of very frightened people. Scared the Americans might bomb them.
The "evidence" had come from a neighboring village. Kurds enemies of the village. Is that the best intelligence they can produce? Did no one have the thought to check it out before Colin Powell announced it to the world? Is this the strength of the "War" arguement? Prove Saddam is a threat and I for one will back the war.
And I have a close relative who WILL fight there at the sharp end.

oh, how silly!
here's all the proof anyone with a brain would need.
He's acounted for 10% of his weapons of mass destruction. He invaded a peaceful nieghboring country, the result of that is that he is to disarm himself of ALL weapons of mass destruction, not 10%
I'm so thankful that this country ignores its peace nic know nothings.
