If the US had dealt in a merciless and brutal fashion with the Fallujah
insurgency, the remainder of anyone leaning towards insurgency wouldn't
be
quite so ready to leap out into the street to create problems.


Which is pretty much how Saddam controlled things. Maybe he wasn't
so bad after all?


Yes, he was.

Maybe the people he killed deserved to die?


You can't really think that.


The U.S. has probably killed more Iraqis than Saddam ever did.


Very doubtful.

The
streets of Najaf were running with Shiite blood. Something never seen
after the Kuwait war.


Uhhmm...not to rain on your rant, but again, what is the SOURCE for these
alleged comments by the CMC? A Google of news reports for "Hagee Fallujah"
does not turn up any reference to the comments you quoted and claimed were
his. So...where's the beef?
