Double-Standard Dupes
Edited on Mon Jul-18-05 02:42 PM by Dangerman
How come there's all this "talk" about removing Saddam Hussein as a "good thing" and a "noble thing", while some of America's allies maybe worse than Saddam (Saudi Arabia, Uzbekistan and Pakistan for example.) I am sick of this crap about "removing Saddam is good for humanity" while double-standards ensue!

1. Allies aside, has removing Saddam been good for anybody?
Is it good for Iraq, with 100K dead and locked in an 'endless war' (http://www.nature.com/news/2005/050711/full/050711-5.html)? Is it good for America, with over 1700 dead and $300 billion poorer?

2. Saddam was a DUPE, pure and simple...
He was set up for GWI, then goaded time and again for 10 years, then finally set up again for GWII...

Control of Iraqi OIL and Afghan pipelines are good for USA...
