During the last thirty years, many of the people of Iraq had been tortured, forced to relocate their families many times, arrested and murdered. Those who stood against Saddam Hussein were punished, in most cases by death, such as the 1988 gassing of Halabja, in which 5000 Kurds (his own people) per...

Asking the question, "Should we sustain from war with Iraq," in my opinion, is kind of like asking, "Is it safe to give a monkey a hand-gun." Obviously, the answer is no. Obviously, I believe in comic relief. Being serious though, which this topic definateley is, Saddam Hussein i...

I believe a war with Iraq would be a mistake. In my opinion Saddam Hussein has done nothing as of yet, to warrant such an attack. However I do believe that Saddam is in the process of hiding or developing weapons of mass destruction, and that steps necessary steps should be taken that he abid...

There was no post-war planning in Iraq, and the little planning that took place was ignored by the State Department, who didn't want to hear daunting words about liberating Iraq from Saddam Hussein.
