Reply #2: As much as I was against the invasion of Iraq

I don't think that freeing Saddam is the right thing to do. He was responsible for many deaths and attrocities.

He may not have been a threat to Americans, Canadians or Europeans, but he was definitely a threat to many Iraqis. That said, the current chaos in Iraq and the fact that the country is so ethnically divided makes one understand why it took a ruthless authoritarian to keep the country together over the years. Pleas enote that I am in no way condoning his methods.
