I'm certainly not an apologist for the current administration, and having been a vocal critic of this war since even before its launch I am not going to defend those who plunged iraq into the violent existence it is today.
however, to make the claim that "Iraq was better off under Hussein then it is today" is ludicrous.
and yes repressive fascist societies are much "more stable". they don't tolerate any dissent, don't allow for any free expression, and the elite have all the wealth while the masses suffer...does that make them desireable?
not at all. it makes them a scourge.
