We can't just go in and kill Saddam. It's "illegal" to kill a head of state. Also, all this money that people say we're spending, well that's not really true. This 100's of billions of dollars? Well, we're paying that much money when our troops aren't deployed as well. The ships always sail, the troops always march and eat. The fact is, that our cost to maintain troops in this war time scenario in another country is only about 20% higher than when they're not deployed. What some fail to see is that we're are going in to "free" Iraq. Kinda like how people want to "free" tibet. The French won't help us, because they get 40% of their oil from Iraq, where as we only get like 3-8%. [addsig]
