It is now conventional wisdom that Americans do not care why we went to war in Iraq that it is enough that the world is better off without Saddam Hussein.
I am an opponent of Saddam Hussein but an opponent also of the sanctions that have killed a million Iraqi children and an opponent of the United States' apparent desire to plunge the Middle East into a new and devastating war.
First of all Saddam did not win the war even though he says he did I mean you know that's a joke and everybody in the world knows it.
If the Americans go in and overthrow Saddam Hussein and it's clean he has nothing I will apologize to the nation and I will not trust the Bush administration again.
In time it will become clear to everyone that support for the policies of pre-emptive war and interventionist nation-building will have much greater significance than the removal of Saddam Hussein itself.
Don't let that weapon technology proliferate. Don't let Saddam Hussein get capability for nuclear or chemical weapons because he's already shown a willingness to use any weapon at his disposal.
Saddam Hussein has been engaged in the development of weapons of mass destruction technology which is a threat to countries in the region and he has made a mockery of the weapons inspection process.
There's a certain amount of sympathy here for the Bush administration's problem which is they would like to get rid of Saddam Hussein and they would like to have the Kurds autonomous.
My point was that removing Saddam should not have been our highest priority. Fighting terrorism should have been our number one concern followed by the Palestinian peace process.
Whatever efforts for peace President Gorbachev had in mind they were pretty substantially undercut very swiftly by Saddam Hussein.
It has been after all 11 years more than a decade now of defiance of U.N. resolutions by Saddam Hussein. Every obligation that he signed onto after the Gulf War so that he would not be a threat to peace and security he has ignored and flaunted.
I beg Osama to stop warring. He is a Muslim and Islam means peace. Nobody wins in a war... I wish I were tapped in the problem about Iraq. I knew Saddam enough that I could have talked him into surrendering. But it's too late.
If Saddam rejects peace and we have to use force our purpose is clear. We want to seriously diminish the threat posed by Iraq's weapons of mass destruction program.
I have to say when we talk about the treatment of these prisoners that I would guess that these prisoners wake up every morning thanking Allah that Saddam Hussein is not in charge of these prisons.
Military intelligence interrogators however their goal is to get information to save lives to stop the war to find Saddam - whatever the information is going to be used for at whatever cost.
As far as Saddam Hussein being a great military strategist he is neither a strategist nor is he schooled in the operational arts nor is he a tactician nor is he a general nor is he a soldier. Other than that he's a great military man I want you to know that.
If Bush as I believe has reliable information on the fact that Saddam Hussein is making weapons of mass destruction I cannot not support the policies of his government.
For all who love freedom and peace the world without Saddam Hussein's regime is a better and safer place.
The people in Iraq lived essentially good lives. They had brilliant health and education systems. Saddam actually created an incredible infrastructure in a very difficult country but they were a Mafia family. If you said anything against that regime or that family you would be killed instantly.
The U.S. couldn't even get rid of Saddam Hussein. And we all know that the EU is just a passing fad. They'll be killing each other again in less than a year. I'm sick to death of all these fascist lawsuits.
I can support going in after Saddam Hussein but I want to make sure I don't go alone.
I was offered a choice of a flat salary up front or a percentage of the film's future earnings. I took the up front money. Nobody could have figured what Halloween would ultimately become.
