Hmmm, let's see here. Your saying the US (because it has WMD) is no different than Saddam!?
Yeah, I suppose we shouldn't be critical. . .except for one insignificant
difference. . .Saddam
USES his chemcal weapons, on his own people, with less regard than Seattle cops have using pepper-spray on a WTO mob.
The sin isn't so much in having . . . it is that Saddam uses these WMD recklessly.
Saddam was reckless in rolling over Kuwait, and threatening his neighbors. He agreed to give up his WMD and be a good boy if the US agreed not to topple Bahgdad.
more analogy:
Hardflex, by your "logic" if the police catch a bank robber, take away his gun, start a search. . .and the bank robber breaks in to a River-dance, singing "I have no gun in my boot". . . the police should just say "okay, since we're cops and have guns, we really can't take this guy in. . .right. . .it's about sin, and casting the first stone? "
