The REALITY of the situation is it was the exercise of power politics. What I am about to type out might shock and upset a lot of the liberals, and those who live in la la land.

The US needed to pull out the troops out of Saudi Arabia, the reason we had them in Saudi is due to the threat of Saddam. So with one swoop, we toppled a unfriendly regime, who was destablizing the region, while at same time get out troops out of Saudi Arabia.

Make no mistakes about it - Iraq was a threat, Saddam was causing problems ( not only to the people in his own country, but the entire region). It also gives the US a new base of operations CENTRALLY LOCATED in the Middle East, and will allow us to stabilize the region ( hopefully)...

It also is a country that has a HUGE OIL reserve.... again this might pucker some peoples asses.... but the free flow of oil at market prices is NEEDED for this country to thrive.

Saddam and his regime were evil, terrible people who abused his people.... 20 years from now if Iraq is stabilized, has a semi-democratic regime, a Constitution, market economy.... the people of Iraq get a higher standard of living, more rights,.... it will be the right thing.

BUt MORE importantly, if Iraq provides the US with a base of operations, allows us to spread democracy, free markets, stability to a region that has not had any in decades, while keeping oil at market prices....

Bush will go down as one of the greatest Presidents - World Leaders of all time....

And yes this could backfire on us.... but I think it was a bold move....

One question keeps running through my mind - if Iraq had NO weapons of mass detruction, or facilities to build them, or were not working on attaining them - WHY NOT JUST LET THE UN IN? LET THE INSPECTORS DO THEIR JOBS? They did not do this, they tried to cause problems, and interfere at ever turn.... WHY DO THIS? Especially when we had 250k troops on the borders..... Did they think Bush was bluffing?
