Let's take a Ride in the "WAYBACK" Machine with Amnesty International
[The Fourth Rail] And let's look at AI's own report and I would like to ask our lefty Tin-foil hat wearing Moonbat friends to please comment on why the US should turn a blind eye to these sort of abuses by Saddam and how this is not justification for forcibly removing Saddam from power. If this kind of evil committed against his own people does not justify military intervention to remove a man who gassed his neighbors and invaded Kuwait while raping and slaughtering Kuwaiti men, women and children and a man who was sending millions to Isreal to fund terror against Isreali citizens and a man who the entire world believed had WMD's, then Pol Pot, Stalin, Hitler, and Mao were not that bad of guys either and we should have just ignored them.
Some slightly related from Technorati and Google.
[Villainous Company] Terror Is Not The Enemy: the administration, friends and neighbors who oppose the war, none of these people are afraid. September 11th... embassy in Kuwait, Lockerbie, the first WTC bombing, Oklahoma City, Khobar Towers, the USS Cole to name... graves? Comparisons of Saddam to Hitler are ridiculed by comedians like Jon Stewart as over the top
[INCITE] Crazy, I tells ya!: The people who wanted Saddam to stay in power don't care how many mass graves there were, they don't care how many terrorists he aided, or the countries he invaded. (Granted, I couldn't give a rats ass about anything bad that happened to Iran, but if he didn't learn not to invade his neighbors then, he wasn't going to learn from the Kuwait War).
[No Pundit Intended | Op-ed political blogentary and news by a former US Army Sergeant] From the Axis - Why Iraq?: ...but don't forget that every politician in Washington since 1992 through 2003 has made at least one statement regarding the threat Saddam Hussein's regime posed to the US and to the stability in the ME. Let's also not forget that conventional wisdom since 1992 has been that Saddam Hussein withheld disclosure of his WMD programs, misled inspectors (hence 14 different resolutions demanding compliance in the UN), and threatened other nations with violence.
[Geocities.com] Martin Kramer's Sandstorm: Saddam (Hussein) in Court: Who's on ...: The decision that left Saddam in power in 1991 was a monumental failure, and one that history has already judged severely. But at least credit those who did organize an expedition and an armada in 2003, and who did their duty despite the criticism of feckless "allies" and the absence of "international legitimacy." Some of those who launched this expedition were party to the previous mistake and the earlier failure.
[Editorsoffice.de] Editor's Blog: Faust: I MISS Saddam: He slobbers all over himself in Kuwait, Looting, driving the local inhabitants out, destroys the civil records, makes the Palestinians believe they now can have a new homeland which USED to be called Kuwait and the Palestinians start raping and looting too. There are so many dead Kuwaitis that the morgue has them stacked twelve deep and more coming.
[Hannah.smith-family.com] Hannah's Blog: Iraq Deceived--Why?: On July 25, 1990, a week before Iraq invaded Kuwait, a neighbor so tiny one American diplomat called it a gas station in the desert, Saddam Hussein summoned the American Ambassador, a career civil servant named April Glaspie, to his office. To critics of the Gulf War, what happened at that meeting has been known since as the green light. Saddam essentially explains his economic predicament, complains of the economic warfare being waged against Iraq by Kuwait, and asks for the official U.S. government view.
[Coldforged.org] coldforged.org » Blog Archive » Weighing In: I bet if Iraq was neighbors with them in Europe that they’d be screaming for us to help them. Fuggin bleeding hearts.Ok, before I actually write a thesis I’m going to stop.
[Isntapundit.com] isntapundit : A Blog by a Brilliant, Uneducated Snob: I've got four syllables for anyone who thinks International Law isn't a joke in very poor taste: Saddam Hussein. The guy squirted Iranian POWs with anthrax just to giggle when they died, and he did a gas-warfare experiment with the Kurds that makes Josef Mengele look like Louis Pasteur.
