I would have to agree with Mr. Blair's statement. The country was under a very strict military dictatorship. Anyone and everyone who showed the slightest disagreement with the dictator was murdered. The country, under orders of the dictator, had ruthlessly attacked not only nearby countries, but had also murdered thousands, even hundreds of thousands of its own people.

How can the people of such a country exercise their sovereignty if they are murdered before they can?

Just as we seek out and confine sociopath murderers in our communities, so it is, at times, important to do the same with sociopath dictators.

There was clear evidence that Saddam Hussein was supporting the terrorist groups with money and material. He was enabling, if not actually involved in, international terrorism.

So, even if he did not have weapons of mass destruction (which I still believe the evidence shows he did), he needed to be removed. Just as Mr. Blair said.

I remember this guy's first appearance on the camera when the US troops where entering Baghdad. There was speculation that he would look for refuge in the US because he was helpful (at the last moment) with information.
