Disagree, We dont get suckered into wars. We did the right thing we removed a dictator and his forces from a land he attempted to lay claim to. The people who lived there would certainly differ from his view and more or less would have suffered the same fate as those that crossed his way of thinking in his own country (They are still finding them even today). We are/were guilty of giving him a second chance and at our expense he scoffed at the condidtions the U.N. set forth and continued his ways. We/All could not afford to allow this man and his minions to somewhat control the flow of oil not just to our nation but to others as well and send the market skyrocketing due to events happening in that region that he was orchestrating. He was an evil man pure and simple and the world is a better place without him.
And given the place where he probably is now, I bet that second chance looks all that more attractive and I bet he thinks now that he should have taken it and remained in power but abided by the rules.
