Saddam hated America, there was no way he would ever have been bent to aid the US. We had taken his sons, his kingdom, everything he wanted and desired, and even with all the money in the world, he would have plotted and schemed to get back at the US.

No, it was best to let him swing.

As we would have done with Hitler had he not done himself.

Interesting thought about grooming Saddam into an asset. It could have worked.

Also, we could have done in Iraq what we did in German and Japan after WWII and that was use their ex-government leaders in positions of leadership, under strict supervision of course. We used former Nazi’s in Germany because they had the “corporate” knowledge to run things; same with Japan. Not only did it get things done, it made them allies instead of insurgents. It took a while but it worked.

Wow…potent stuff, Fred. Lot to think about …
Personally, as a still recovering Democrat, I could care less what Al does to that party. Finding a democrat that tells the truth is like trying to walk on water…ain’t gonna happen.
