Vespa,
that is the first intelligent response I have seen offered as an alternate to the US going to war with Iraq. Of course it is still war in your solution. I think it would just take too long to wait for the Iraqi people to overthrow Saddam. I have no doubt that they could but I think after being let down by us in the past decade it would be very hard to gain the trust back. The US was indirectly responsible for the death of many of Saddam's enemies in his own organization when we failed to back their coupe attempt.
I thinks its ridiculous to assume that the world will sit by and let the US "steal" Iraq's oil. I mean yea will buy it from them and the newly instituted government might even sell us rights to it. But that goes on everyday with free countries around the world.
We can argue about this all day but it really boils down to do you support Saddam or oppose him.
Oh and if I lived under the same conditions the people of Iraq do I would be begging someone to come in and get rid of that monster. If I had to give my life for it then so be it.
By the way have any of you ever actually spoken to an Iraqi? Have you ever heard first hand the horror that goes on there everyday?
You are welcome to hate America if you want but think about Iraq first and put your hatred aside.
