The argument that Sadaam didn't have weapons is a stupid one, and a partisan one. He DID have them. He used them in combat. He used them as a device to exert political dominance.

As a condition of his surrender in the first Gulf war, the UN required that he destory his arsenal. He refused to provide any evidence that he did. Now we see chemical weapons in the hands of terrorists, being used against our troops.

It seems to me that the case doesn't need to be further substantianated. Saddaam had weapons designed to kill hundreds of thousands of people. Now he doesn't. A sworn enemy of America and Israel, a man who funded and harbored terrorists, a man who has shown himself willing to use chemical and biological weapons for military and political purposes, is now rotting in a US military prison. Thank you George Bush.

Fuck you France, Germany, Russia and the other cowardly EU nation-states.
