Well, the kurds were his country's citizens.

No, when you basically equate the Bushes with hitler, it's clear that there's no point in further point/counterpoint. The fact that you apparently also don't know or recall that the best available information before the war was that SH was a credible threat. The leftists here are pretending to have short memories about that too, pretending it was Bush's little misadventure, seemingly forgetting statements as outlined here: http://www.snopes.com/politics/war/wmdquotes.asp If you're not real up on who is in what party, most or all of the quotes there are from Democrats, who almost as a whole are now pretending that the decision was strictly along partison lines. Such lies turn my stomach, and when I see basically the same thing here, I react strongly. > I > thought you were more resolute than that. Look up "Godwin's Law".
