America is Grateful

Reader comment on item: Pipes calls war a success

Submitted by Populous (Canada), Apr 12, 2006 at 11:51

The americans should be grateful that Saddam is now gone. He was about to sell oil in a currency other then the american dollars to the russians, chinese and france. And sadly, now the iranians are threatening to do the same.

Saddam's regime was a lot less worse then the rest of the arab Brady Bunch. His baath parties was more secular then islamism. He was very heavy handed against religeous fundamentalists in his country and of all the arab countries, christians had the mildest 'second class' status. So Saddam was hit and Sudan, Syria, Saudis, Yemen, etc.. are not hit? And, very sadly, our western leaders still display fascination with those pedophile-princes.
