Nothing but lip service on a public bulletin board?
Much of the killing of his own people can be attributed to revolts and civil wars by the Kurds and Shi'ites. To use statistics like that then it could be just as easily said that Abraham Lincoln killed over 600,000 of his own people.

yeah but what seperates him from abraham lincoln is saddam has no problem even killing his own family. this is a fact, him and his son-inlaw got in an argument and sadddam took him out and shot him in the head. this happened a few years ago so i doubt this is propoganda. sure theres propoganda w/ this war, but c'mon, propoganda can only do so much to make a guy look bad, and saddam is obviously NOT a good guy.
and what am i willing to pay to see evil saddam destroyed... well honestly since i'm here in my lil own world in warren ohio i feel disconnected with the issue... but i'm sure if my hand had to be cut off to rid iraq of saddam i'd do it, hell i'd become famous and probably rich. either way, its not about the US's intentions, who cares, whether it be because we want oil or not... a good will come out of it, and hopefully an iraq w/o saddam
