Saddam's past behaviours have served to prove that Iraq can't be trusted with such a weapon of mass destruction. They are irresponsible. Any country that has caused that much grief and strife in the world doesn't deserve the kind of trust needed to possess nukes.
Just like your hometown needs to be policed, so to does the world need a cop. The USA is big enough and strong enough to be that cop, and I at least thank God that they are the type of nation that holds personal freedom in high regard, as does Canada. Yes, there are many civil rights issues, my own included, but by-and-large the basic precepts of a free society are upheld here. And Iraq has in the past committed egregious criminal acts against it's neighbors, so having the USA come a-calling on them isn't really all the much of a surprise, is it?
