Default Re: Bombings in Amman Show US Involvement in Iraq Is Correct

"Oppressive dictatorships and terrorism spring from the same well of violence and hatred"

Lord save us... So they must be the same thing right?

"And any dictator who has used chems on his own people wouldn't think twice about using them on other countries or providing them to terrorists with whom he shared common enemies."

Is that so? What about the fact that other countries such as the US at the time didn't care about him using such weapons on his own people enough to even criticise him for it, but might have cared just slightly more if he'd used them on theirs or helped others do so? Ignoring the minor point that in 2003 he didn't actually have any. SHould we assume that because Uzbekistan is happy to torture its own people it may start kidnapping and torturing US citizens any day now? The logic is ridiculous.
