Subject: RE: BS: They got saddam
Janice has it ALMOST right. But she's straight out of dreamland with her final paragraph. Anybody who believes that the current US administration intends to pull the American military out of Iraq is in dreamland for sure. One glance at the degrading images on t.v. reveals the real value of the capture of Saddam---a poor pathetic remnant of a once powerful , and cruel, dictator. His demise will be approved by all civilised people. But the monstrous series of lies which were put forward in justifying the illegal attack on Iraq are still, and will ever be, remembered. And anyone who imagines that this eventuality will see the end --or even the reduction-- of "terrorism" in Iraq is sanguine indeed. The day that all military installations and personnel leave Diego Garcia and similarly the Iraqi nation, that will be the day I will regain faith in the intentions of the US government. Saddam will be tried for crimes against his own people , hopefully by his own people. That's as it should be. Any involvement by any other power which has innocent blood on its own hands would be nothing short of farcical---and would be a guarantee of continued death and destruction.
