I think you glossed over reading the report of what happened. The issue is Weapons of Mass Destruction. Iraq nuked a village with gas and then took dispersal data on corpses and the immobile. They are not only planning to use such weapons of mass destruction, they have the capability to use them and have actually done so. This is not some theoretical exercize. It's reality.
Citing massacres by tribes in Africa is off the point. The poor Ibos are no threat to my family here in the US. The issue is Weapons of Mass Destruction. Unless there have been technical advances in machetes, such examples are irrelevant and confuse the issue.
And your point...
"Because he's a bad guy and might be capable of building weapons of mass destruction? Well, South Africa can do that, and they haven't been kind to civil rights advocates."
Uh, I think you're outa date as to who runs South Africa these days, not that they really believe in civil rights either.
