    two wrongs do not make a right.

    you would have preferred to keep a dictator in power who murdered nearly 1 million of his own citizens?

    Yes. I wouldn't care if he slaughtered every single non American citizen on the planet.

    There is much evil I never speak of. Does this imply support?

    nice try rune. we are talking about iraqi deaths. yet, you never mention the deaths by saddam's hand. only the deaths caused by the US invasion. so it does imply you have a problem with one and not the other.

    No.
    Of course I have a problem with needless deaths. We caused a lot of them.

    yet, you keep harping on the deaths caused by the invasion (NOTE: that does not mean we directly caused the deaths) and ignore the, at least, 8X more deaths that saddam was directly responsible for.

    can you see why people think you only care about iraqis because a republican took us to war? you didn't say shit or give a shit about iraqi deaths before bush took us there.
