> Bush easily got the congress to back the mindless slaughter of hundreds of thousands of Iraqi's and dozens of Iraqi's continue to die every day because of the chaos wrought by that slaughter.

>Uhm, Bill, remind me again - how many individuals in Northern Iraq were killed at the hands of Hussein's government/military?

Hmmm, not so much different that of other dictators we did not care about. The reason of invading Iraq did not have anything to do with Saddams reputation of killing his own people or even WMD. After all, we did let African tribes kill by the millions without any intervention. Hmmm, do I smell the sweet odour of oil and dollars?

I agree war is ugly and innocent people will die, but I cannot suppress the feeling the US has failed in doing damage control on humanity.

>I won't debate our actual involvement, but what I will debate is the case for action against Hussein. The arguments for action were (and still are) compelling.

Indeed, but I do not think it has anything to do with humanity.
