"Miss Me Yet?" (Not who you think)

[n2doc]

1. The families

of the victims of him and his sons don't miss him. I don't understand why anyone would have any fond thoughts of Saddam? Care to explain why you do?

[randome]

2. I think the point is that it's arguable that Iraq is better off than it was.

Despite Saddam's cruelties, America caused an additional million Iraqis to lose their lives.

It's at least an arguable point.

[Oilwellian]

4. Close

My interpretation is, Iraqis are as fond of Saddam's deadly reign, as we are of Bush's.

7. There are Sunnis who still worship his memory in God-like fashion. Not everyone hated Saddam.

If you were Shi'ia, though, you probably aren't having fond recollections.

3. They probably think as fondly of him

as the families of the million casualties after him think fondly of the U.S.

6. The poster didn't draw the cartoon. The cartoonist is remarking upon the violence in Baghdad and

other major cities in Iraq of late, and asking a question.

It's the whole "liberty for security" argument, in essence.

[MADem]

5. I don't think ANY of the Shi'ia miss him one whit. The Sunnis never stopped missing him.

Where you stand depends on where you sit.
