So, you must think its fine if we leave Saddam alone and let him be a major problem 10-20 years from now...right?
this is my biggest gripe about this entire invasion... the whole concept of a preemptive strike against someone who *might* be a threat in the future is ridiculous if they haven't even done anything aggressive to us so far... i mean, what kind of precedent does that set? does that give us the right to unilaterally attack and kill *anyone* we have a feeling may one day be a threat (or nuisance), at any time? that seems very open to abuse, and isn't really logically sound regardless..

oh, and to stay within the original scope of this thread, yes. its all about bush and his evil cohorts making more money off oil in some way or another... most likely in a way that will not benefit us american consumers at all, but fatten is coffers even more that they already are..
