as for you p-lo, and the Saddam deal, you don't really believe that Saddam was the answer to the middle easts problems? i sure hope not! he was inciting violence between all muslims as well as their countries. Iran now thinks they have some clout in the region, when in fact they are the next to meet their doom. as long as there are leaders that think they can irradicate their problems with force, the longer it will take for peace to ever have a chance and the more conflicts that we will be involed in.
yes we are the world police, that's part of being the greatest military power in the world. it is an incredible title to carry but those who oppose the U.S. are nothing more than children striking out at the man.

if Saddam were still in power we would be in the middle of WW3. as it is there is a window of opportunity to help the region into the 21rst century and leave the barbarrian mentality in the dust.
