Have you considered...

What most people haven't thought about or refuse to think about is this:

At some point, there was going to be an accounting between Iraq and the rest of the world.

The chances that a stable, responsible government would have emerged after the passing of Saddam were between slim and none.

As bad as Saddam was, his criminally insane offspring would have been far worse.

Any military leader strong enough to emerge as the next head-of-state would have to have many of the same "qualities" possessed by the soon to be convicted Mr. Hussein.

In short, things were not likely to get any better in the near-to-mid term in Iraq. Would it have been a good idea to leave a country like that alone to whip up God knows what kinds of weapons?

The people who oppose this war are quite simply, Stupid.
