So your saying we should of waited, let Saddam attack us.. or pay
someone to attack us... before we acted?

There's no evidence he planned to do that. He 'd been fighting Islamic
fundies in Iran and his own country and was too broke to do that even if he
wanted to. His survival depended on US help. Since we were fighting the
same enemies it was only logical for us to leave him in power.
