Well, I typed that post too fast and was not clear in what I want to say :
Invading Iraq did not resurect all those killed before. The Last documented atrocity by Sadamm was 12 years ago. These was no need either to invade to stop Sadamm attacking others - no country, not even Kuwait ask US to invade, they all were against it ! So yes, sadamm killed many more twenty years before but that does not justify killing thousands now just to get him to jail. Sadamm was contained, had no WMD whtsoever and no contacts with AQ or other terrorists. The war was completely unneccesary and,IMHO, against US interests. It divertred attention from the real problem - AQ and made things much worse.
