Politics of the Business

I am in no way a pacifist. Firstly, I supported the war in Iraq even though it was clearly a push for oil. But in these times of haste, maybe we've forgotten some of the atrocities commited by everyone's favorite dictator. What the U.S. did was in no way fair, but then again since when is modern warfare a fight between equalities? Even in the aftermath of the war, maybe good 'ol George had a vision too grand of billions of dollars in aid pouring into the rotten country. Alongside, perhaps, hundreds of countries subject to an economic boom investing in the shattered remains known as Iraq. Unfortunately, nothing along these lines really happened and just like after the first Gulf War, aid is widespread and the money going nowhere.

Surely I believe that it was necessary in all ways to remove Hussein even if he didn't have weapons grade Uranium or Plutonium or any WMDs for that matter. In the end, it should be clear to number of people, those we call thinkers, that Saddam did pose a threat, had no control over his country (airspace, international trade, foreign ministries, diplomatic relations, to name a few) and was mentally unstable. Would you let someone like that run your country? I know the coalition lied to get into Iraq and are probably still lying about the state the country is in, but I also know that it is all for the best. A safer world? You're going to argue with a stability in the Middle East? Please.

Now, since I do like to prove that I'm not entirely a huge ass, I do read the National Post.
