Such an uninformed opinion. Saddam, like Assad had no use for Islamic terror, and actually were quite helpful in suppressing it.bbking said:Iraq was an essential part to stopping the network of support for Islamic extermist terror. bbk
While the West condems Saddam for his brutality - much of it was actually repressing Islmaic terror - which is what you uninformed fail to realize.
Assad in Syria is similar. He put down a rebellion in Hama, killed 18-22,000 people who were rebelling called the Muslem Brotherhood - or Islamic Jihad in Egypt (killed Sadat) - these people are the true threat to our societies and freedom - not OBL - who in some dimensions, seeks mostly to free Saudi among other issues like Palestine. The MB are the true threat to the WEst and our Christian societies -
Secular leaders in the ME are rare, which is why removing them will hurt us infuture - and actually take us backwards in the march towards democracy in the region - look at Iran.
