Blah Blah...Same crap all over again. The topic of the thread was not `WWII and how the world would be if the allies did not win the war`.

The question of whether or not the Iraqui are better off without Saddam is beyond the point: of course they are (or they will be). And there are dozens of other countries in Africa that would be better off without their dictators too.

However, those were not the reasons invoked to go to war. The reasons were:
1-To seize WMDs
2-To prevent future terrorist threats
3-To give the Iraqui a democratic regime

So far, MORE terrorism has been generated in Iraq, the place is a total mess, and I do not see how it could become a democracy with all the surrounding countries sending their jihadists. It will simply become the same impasse as Israel and Palestine.

But let us know when you son gets there what he has to say about it, Zoanas. He will certainlly have to opportunity to interview some Iraquis. And unless you fought during world war two, I owe you strictly nothing.
