I have to say this thread has laid bare the Left-wingnuts in this forum.\
Yes, the "lets bring back the dictators" group.
The shear arrogance is sickening. "They can't handle democracy. They NEED the iron boot of a dictator on their necks to keep them in line. A dictator keeps order"
Of course everyone has hedged this in very PC talk....not Saddam, because he was baaaad, just someone "LIKE HIM"
Hey why not stop there? Lets bring back Hitler. Under his reign Germany was the pinacle of efficiency! Unemployment was unheard of, the country was rich and powerful, no secretarian violence that split the nation before his rule.
Hey why not bring back Stalin or his contempararies? Russia was a super power. law and order ruled the day. Only one other nation could project it's influence like the Russians. All feared andrespected them. Their scientists where admired around the world. Their technology

was the best around.
Got to love that law and order. As long as you ignore the fact that MILLIONS...yes 10's of MILLIONS were murdered and 10's of millions of others were intimidated to make this happen.
The difference between Saddam and those two upsatdning persons is the numbers......He was great, law and order......

For those of you....ehem...historians.....try looking up Brittain's history. They certainly didn't have a history of democracy either....and I'd say they were far more divided than the Iraqis are today. Invaded over and over and over again by foreign super powers, religions divisions, backwardness...the whole shabang!
UNFRIKK'N BELIEVABLE.
You people are an embarrassment to your social studies teachers. Or I at least hope you are. Didn't learn a thing.
