At what point did you decide that his removal was necessary? Throughout the west's support for his regime, particularly during the Iran-Iraq wars? Or did you decide the time was right when Bush and Blair said so?

Saddam should have been removed in 1991, but alas that didnt happen and 500,000 Iraqi children died because of sanctions. I wasnt around during the US support for him, and that was absolutely wrong, resulting in the death of hundreds of thousands of people.
That fact doesnt mean that removing him in 2003 is wrong though. If you think he should have stayed in power, you have to explain what would have happened in that situation

EXACTLY. And who do you think the Iranian people consider the greatest threat, their own leaders or the US? I think I know the answer to that one.

If you think its the USA then youve never read anything by an Iranian blogger ever

I thought I had answered the question.

to be honest ive spent most of this evening answering points by you, kknik and Tesla so youve overlapped alot, and i am but a lowly unevolved homosapien. Im glad you bothered to actually engage my points at least.
