Reply #74: more are dying every day as it is. [View All]

once we set up our puppet regime, more will continue to die and it will get worse until the whole thing melts down and we leave (like Viet Nam) and then the real killing starts. It's inevitable.

I agree we can't pretend the whole thing never happened. There are no reparations for the kind of suffering we have caused.

the UN should take over, you're right. As long as Saddam (or his ghost) is out there, overthrown by the USA's illegal invasion, though, he will be a secular martyr for the Arab world and a rallying point for enemies we have who aren't even born yet.
