What is sad is that Iraq doesn't have to invade anyone. All he has to do is continue paying people to kill children.

What is the current amount he pays to the families of palestinian terrorists who blow themselves and Israeli civilians to kingdom come?

C'mon, are you so naive to think that if we were to leave Iraq unchecked that this guy would sit still and not try to expand his empire? Do you know how much the US pays each year in manpower and equipment to keep him from dropping the bomb on Jerusalem, Tehran, Paris, or wherever the fsck he wants?

Newsflash: WE KNOW HE STILL HAS CHEMICAL AND BIOLOGICAL WEAPONS.

Don't believe me? THE US SOLD THEM TO HIM. THE FRENCH SOLD THEM TO HIM. THE GERMANS SOLD THEM TO HIM. Fsck, everybody sold him components he needed to make all sorts of chemical and biological weapons. Since the disarmament agreement was made, hundreds and thousands of tons of these weapons still are unaccounted for. Unfortunately for illogical arguments, weapons like this don't disappear into the desert sands unless they are being hid.

We just kicked some of his people out of our country because they were caught gathering surveillience on tunnels, bridges, and other civilian targets in the US. He's paying terrorists in Israel. He's tried to bomb US targets internationally (in the Phillipines in 1991).

What the heck should we do with this guy, leave him alone to go about his scheming? Forget about the previous UN orders that he has wiped his ass with? The guy can't be reasoned with, regardless of what nutcases worldwide like to fantasize about, and we WILL be taking him out.

The reason that N. Korea is a different problem is that the tinpot dictator running that particular hellhole is a different type of crazy than Saddam. He also currently has nukes. If he knew that his nation/playground was going to be pulled out from under him, would it be too much of a stretch to imagine him using nukes? Even if he only uses them on the Peninsula, look on a map and check out how close Seoul is to the DMZ ... we're talking millions of deaths.

AND BY THE WAY, DON'T DEMONSTRATE YOUR IGNORANCE TO ME. THE US DOES NOT CARPET BOMB CIVILIANS. The reason that there is speculation that casualties in this conflict will be higher for the US if there is urban warfare is because the US would be hamstrung trying NOT to kill civilians. The US isn't the monster that your propaganda machine likes to make it out as ... that's the reason you're not speaking German and punctuating your sentences with swastikas.

Of course, those bastards that want to volunteer as human shields are a different story: since the practice of using and being a human shield is illegal under the Geneva convention, we would be perfectly justified in bombing them to hell.
