Iraq's had 12 years to disarm and to prove it, not to hide evidence on the hope it will not be found. Still, if you'd rather Saddam remained in power....and before anyone says that not wanting a war with Iraq is not the same as wanting Saddam to remain I'd like to point out two things.
1. No one wants war, but to forget it altogether undermines everything that the UN says. If your words are meaningless, whose going to listen ?
2. Saddam will not be removed by any other way, You want him out ? Then we're going to have to kick him out.

I just listened to Blair's speech and there was nothing in there that added anything to the BS that we have already been fed.
All he is doing is being strung along by dubya and either scared or unable to say anything against. We don't want to be USA's puppet.
Hussein currently presents no threat to the western world, and there is no reason to believe he may do so at any time in the future. He has complied with UN demands, and whilst he may well be a menace to his people and a threat to nearby countries, that in no way justifies his being singled out in particular. Nor is it America's job to act as an international oppressive police force hell bent on fitting others into their own world view, right or wrong as it may be.
Inoccent peaple will die both Iraqi and our army. There is no evidence that Iraq have weopons of mass destruction. George W Bush is only doing it for the oil for $.
Because George W Bush is an unelected, illiterate liar installed in the most shocking of coups ever seen and it was right under the world's media.
And punishing a country for what "they might do" reeks of Minority Report or a similar sci-fi summer blockbuster full of special effects, weak plot, bad script and terrible acting.
This is not because of Hussein's "terrible abuse of human rights", because if that were the case then America would be pursuing China, El Salvador, Sudan, North Korea etc etc etc.
This is a puppet-show designed to increase fear amongst the population and make it easier to pass obscene violations of human rights on America's home-turf under the Homeland Security Bill and Patriotism Act.
