People like myself would have at least heard what Hussein had to say
when he asked for a meeting with Bush or the Secty of State just

hours
before the invasion began.


When would it have been ok with you to finally go in and get Saddam
out?We had been screwing wit this guy for twelve years. I guess the
twelve years of double talk, lies and stalling from Saddam to the rest
of the world are just fine with you but for the people of Iraq it met
many more death from his hands than needed to be. We should have taken
care of him during the first Iraq war and even less would have died.
But instead we waited and more people died.


Heck, for all we know he might have offered to go
into exile if we'd let him take a couple of billion of his bucks with
him.


We did offer him exile or don't you remember.

When we faced the Russians in the Cuban
Missle Crisis we used the military to make the other side "blink".

That
was statesmanship. We prevailed. Using the other side's "blink" as a
prime opportunity to hit the opponent with eyes closed may be
effective, but it's not statesmanship and it will come back to bite

us
on the butt.


Are you trying to say that we just went in blindly with no warning?
Wow! Your sense of recent history is really confused. Since you don't
seem to remember ... We haggle with the UN for months on end to comply
with their own resolutions to no avail. Bush gave a deadline to Saddam
and the UN and nothing was done. Should he just ignore that deadline
and just give another then another and another? It was time to **** or
get off the pot.

Oh yea! you're the one that wanted to give him the 1000th chance in
hopes that it wouldn't have gone to 1001st and meanwhile the people
of Iraq where still being throw off buildings by Saddam and his thugs,
and their wife's were being rape by professional government sponsored
rapist.
