Oh, that's right. I forgot that the US waged war against Iraq in 1991. I keep telling all the major news services, but for some reason they keep reporting that the UN waged that war. Silly me for forgetting.

Do you suggest that the situation in Iraq is better now that one country "refused to tolerate any more stalling"?

Yes. I think, eventually, the US will be gone and the Iraqis will be able to determine their own destiny. With Saddam in power, and two equally ruthless (if not more so) heirs to the throne in waiting, the Iraqis would never be free.
Perhaps you think being murdered, raped, tortured, or being forced to watch your loved ones go through that is better than being in the middle of a war. I don't. At least you can escape the war, or work to end it.

Huh? Why would it not?
