Whilst I agree that Iraq is better without him and he deserves everything he gets for the murderous way he ruled Iraq. And as much as I would love to say the world is a safer place now without him (coz it aint). And as much as I would love to see him linked to terrorism and 9/11 - he wont be because he isn't. And as much as we would all like to sit in our little ivory towers and preach good and evil to the world lets not forget who sold him these weapons he used on his own people as well as his neighbouring countries (he was our closest ally in the middle east in the eighties even whilst still murdering his own people then). Lets not forget what we were told was the reason for this war. We were not told it was to rid Iraq of an evil dictator. If this were the case we could end up fighting half the globe - Zimbabwe, Nrth Korea, Libya, Burma, Cuba, Belarus - what about Saudi Arabi? No - we were told that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction? We were all in danger!!!!! So where are the the WMD's we were told they had?
Saddam Hussain was a welcome capture - but lets not forget WHY we went to war in the first place!
