Yet I am constantly informed here that if Saddam were still running Iraq, the Middle East would be stable and non-threatening forever.

This despite a history of two wars of aggression, building and using WMD, and two consecutive nuclear weapons programs.

And I'm throwing fantasy arguments around?

Do you have ANYTHING to say on all of the "Saddam's Kite-Flying Paradise" statements I've had to deal with here?

        I think the problem is defining "stability." - TB - 2/28/2007 6:30:52 PM
        
        Brass tacks: Do you actually intend to argue that the middle east is more stable now than before the Iraq Invasion? Yes or no? (n/t) - Yeti - 2/28/2007 6:46:35 PM
