Some ask but is not the world better without Saddam? Have our soldiers died in vain? I return those questions to their senders, and I can answer for myself from what I see. To many here and around the world Saddam had help from us and to many Bush is evil. Would we desire he be removed by the same methods? If he has used his position & power should he not then be removed by lawful means. Some killed JFK because..multiple theories, but because they were ordered or took the law into their own hands, because they hated him. I'm a Democrat, but surely I wd not want to have seen Nixon or Bush killed by his enemies. In vain do those fighting die? I hope not; I hope that their memory will serve to call for their return & peace. Although law forbids they speak against the president, few do not know they are home sick and weary of war (especially the prospect of generations of wars) We need truth, discernment, mercy, privacy so long as we cause no harm and our God-given rights honored. We need to give up the myths, look behind the PR campaigns,get back to the basics. Most now fear & distrust, as well as pay taxes to support, our government & politicians & main stream media. This needs to be changed too. We pretend we are the saviors of the world, & yet we now cannot be sure our land is secure or defend or escape the realities enough to relax to enjoy life, liberty & our pursuit of happiness. Just like everything else (every other gift or privelege) government of itself is not bad; it (like all other/ can be used for good or evil. We MUST demand this country stands for truth and justice for all. The dog haters cannot forbid others to have dogs, etc.
