He has to be executed for some of the Iraqi people to face reality - Sunni totalitarian rule is gone, and it ain't comin' back.

The reality is that Hussein was a warlord in addition to being a tyrant. Had he been content with simply being the tyrannical President of Iraq, he would still be in power and enjoy similar recognition and grudging respect as does Hosni Mubarak, King Abdullah, possibly even Hafez al-Assad and most recently, the born again, Col. Quackdaffy Kadaffy.

But Hussein was a warlord tyrant. Big difference. Warlord tyrants are not acceptable. They upset the staus quo and behave unpredictably like Napoleon, Mussolini and that infamous Austrian Corporal.

No the world likes its tyrants to be internationally neutral like Franco, Tito, Pinochet and Mobuto Sese Seko.

So the Sunni autocracy or totalitarian rule may have to come back if the world wants a unified Iraq- it's just that next time the tyranny will undoubtedly have to have a kinder & gentler personality cult at the helm- something more like a Milosevic.

The UK assisted the US.  Maybe the UK has a plan.

The American people are upset because of the instability. 

That is what we would like to see changing, and don't.

THe UK plan is to screw it all up so badly that America has to send all it's troops over. Then we take Manhattan.

Um, I take it back.

:lol:

I was about to thank you, but now I take it back.

Execute the guy, and have done with it. I always thought it was a real shame that Hitler escaped the hangman's noose. The Nazis didn't grow in time, in fact I would say that their executions diminished them.

I'll take my take it back back if you can get the UK to take Manhattan, San Marin County and Minnesota.

Did the UK run over your dog, or something? Actually, I quite like Minnesota. It's a dry cold*.

*- 'It's a dry cold' was the phrase used by the people who persuaded us to move to Ontario. For their sins they will be going somewhere very dry and very, very hot.

Nonsense John. Ontario is a *wet cold*.

Alberta is dry cold. Easy to dress for- quite often you don't even notice that it's -30.

Is that because you've already gone completely numb? :dead: :lol2:

We certainly used to notice. Giving up smoking was almost a relief.

(I'm actually being dishonest - I loved the really cold days, the smell of clean air at -30C and 7am is fantastic, providing the air doesn't move fast.)
