Why can't the coalition admit to the fact that they know they won't succeed there. It has nothing to do with Saddam being alive or not (that's just another excuse in the long line of excuses the coalition has used for their unsuccesses), it has all to do with people not wanting capitalists to control their resources.
Interesting to see how the story (and reasons) changes continuously.
I think that ridding yourself of Saddam will have the adverse effect. You will see more people pissed off than you could ever imagine.
The UN doesn't have the Midas touch, hey, I'll agree to that....my question is...how much do you have it?
I'm not trying to be anti-whatever, I'm just looking at the facts, and I don't see anything good coming out of this.
I just don't see the Iraqis wanting you to help. Actually, from what I have read, they would hope that the coalition would step aside so they can go on with their lives.
Maybe the coalition should read what the arabs think of the situation.
