Don't get me wrong. Its not that I'm anti-war. I just feel that its a damned if you do and damned if you don't thing. I can understand that its probably going to be a good thing that we get him out of there, but ultimately a lot of good people on both sides will die because of it.

Because, lets face it, its not like the Iraqi army had much of a choice in whether to serve or not. And we've given the Iraqi people good reason to not believe that Saddam is gone until they see it. Ultimately thats why the whole "shock and awe" thing didn't work. Whether they were shocked or awe'd isn't the point. They'd get beaten/killed if they said anything out of line.

But, then again, why aren't we going to help out the people in Congo? Millions have died there too, and conditions are worse there....
