If Saddam Hussein was such a threat to the world, why was he left unharmed in 1990? He was undoubtedly more powerful then than he is at the present time.
Those who think that the Iraqis will be thankful to the Americans once this war is over, ought to think again. There is nothing that the Iraqis can be thankful about. Twelve years of sanctions have left 1.5 million people dead, and destroyed the infrastructure of one of the most developed Muslim countries on this planet. They bombed a retreating army and violated the sovereignty of another country by imposing no-fly zones.
The bulk of responsibility lies on the shoulder of the American people. The term Land of the Free certainly holds up. It means America, and no one else has the right to exist freely and make decisions for everyone else in the world.
All Americans must understand that September 11 was in response to American foreign policy. What the Americans are doing in Iraq will only lead to more attacks on the US. Who is terrorising whome?For Iraquis;for Libyans;for Afghanis America itself is'TERROR'.
