Sadam sacrificied his nation’s sovereignty when he invaded Kuwait and got his ass kicked. He failed to abide by the sanctions and committed hostile acts on a nearly daily basis against our flyers in the No fly zones.

I can’t tell you how the weigh out the moral costs of these things, but I can’t say that I view those hostile acts in the no fly zone, that never lost an airmen to anything other than friendly fire, to be worth the deaths of thousands of service men and women and thousands of Iraqis. I realize these things are of a highly personal nature tho, and I can understand if you do disagree.
