Aren't you overlooking Uday Husseins well documented love of rape?
But
otherwise I'm sure it was a lovely place to live.


But he never committed his rapes on the street.....

So the Sadam appologists give him a pass.


Actually, its a matter of numbers. How many rapes did Uday commit? How
many
are being commited now? Likewise with daily murders, etc.

Apologia...


I'm defending Sadam/Usay by pointing out that things could be worse than
they were?


You guys like to tout the mass graves and so on, but the reality is that
most of that stuff happened years ago. The biggest single killer in Iraq
has
been for several years the result of the UN sanctions. True, Saddam
could
have played better with us and the sanctions wouldn't have been needed,
but
it will be several years before things improve to the point that the
Iraqis
are significantly better off materially than they were before the
invasion.

That is not what the Iraqis themselves believe, according to the recent
poll
results (from an organization that was none to much in favor of the
operation, either).

And on any given day, Bush is guaranteed to win, or Kerry is guaranteed to
win, according to polls taken in this country. Polls don't mean much.


And, in the meantime, we have the potential for even worse things
happening
in Iraq than anything that Saddam and his kids ever managed to do.

Sounds like apologia for Saddam...resulting in a well-deserved *plonk*.


Defense of Saddam and family?

Ok, sure, whatever.

bah Waves hand.
