Another thread started to drift too much, so I decided to make a new thread here.
I'd hate to tell you this, but there was one perfectly valid reason to invade Iraq.
Make that two:
1) Pincer movement on Iran. Yes, you're ignorant of military strategy, so run along and look it up.
2) By what RIGHT does the tyrannical dictators have to claim the throne they stole is theirs forever and no one else has the right to contest it and take it if they can?
Saddam took that throne by force, did he not?
Yes, he did.
So, then what moral code prevents ANYONE else from taking that throne from him, by force, anytime they desire?
Right.
He existed in his position SOLELY on our sufferance and the sufferance of everyone else. We got tired of him, finally, and removed him, as we had a right to do because he was not a leader duly elected by honest and free elections of the people he ruled over.
He had no right to stay, we had every right to remove him.
You aren't very good at the morality of history, are you?
I'll come back in a bit, gotta take a leak...
Instead of going over this point-by-point, I'll just refer you to the statements of one, Donald Trump:

PLENTY more where that came from.
