Things were so much better for us and the Iraqis when Saddam was in power. Saddam didn't have any WMDs so he was no threat to the U.S., but he did have plenty of power in his own country which he could use to keep all these little terrorist groups in line.

Kinda makes you think about the wisdom (some called it obsession, really) with Saddam Hussein.

And it kinda makes you think whose strategic interests and security were actually advanced and strengthened by Saddam's removal. Cause sure as hell it wasn't America's...
