We knew back in desert storm (and earlier) what kind of man saddam was, yet we sat back and let it happen and supplied materials (for what ever purpose they were meant for, with a mentality like that in power, they should have known that these materials would be used for no good).
So the UN didn't want us to take saddam out then, they didn;t want us to take him out now either... so, if this was done earlier and daddy bush had the ball little bush has, they our troops would not be over there AGAIN putting their lives on the line.
Hey, if he supports terrorism and funds it, fine take him out... but DO NOT loose focus of the matter at hand. What just because we take out saddam, that will stop the funding of terrorism? Hell no, there will be someone else that will provide that if he doesn't.
The only point I am trying to make is that we should have put and sould continue to put all our efforts into finding the man (bin ladden) who has attacked and killed innocent americans on AMERICAN SOIL! period!.... Then take care of the rest of it.
That is my biggest beef with all this. Sure we need to get rid of terror.. but that WILL NEVER HAPPEN!. As long as ther is hatred there will be people who kill in a terrorist fashion. Hell, most of these terrorist attacks are based on religious beliefs. So to get rid of terror, do we kill anyone who follows that religion? And if so why? This country was founded based on the FREEDOM of religion.
This war on terror is just like the war on drugs... it is a war that will NEVER be won. 
How was that?

You did alright.
But you seem to dismiss the fact that if 'daddy bush' had sent coalition forces to Baghdad in DS1 that an equal number of lives lost.
So it's bad because different troops are dying?
Please.
Of course, taking out Saddam doesn't end terrorism. News flash... neither does capturing 'bin ladden'.
