Kermit_The_Frog said:And to remark about Saddam he was PUT in place by the West .. Maybe the west should just leave that area all together unless we are asked to help, I mean if we spend all this time effort and money trying to fix the problems of the world, you would think that we lived in a perfect world. But look at how bad things are here never mind everyone else.
But then of course there is the simple fact that someone needs to be the BAD GUYS and do the DIRTY WORK.
Always a tough call no real way to do this and keep everyone happy.
sry if all this is off topic.
Bin laddy man's days are numbered no matter
We didn't put Saddam into power, but we did assist in his rise to the point where he was before the Kuwait invasion. It's a long, complicated story, but if you wish to get a look at it, try here:

A little long, but pretty good explanation of his rise and fall, and how it all ties together with Bin Laden and the rest of the Midlle East.
