Raoul SpitzerMember‘Please do not tell me you would rather have the children of Iraq grow up under the regime of a murderous, torturing, rapist dictator.’ I wouldnt but the American government, until 1999, did. Before then their position was we had to support Saddam in order to preserve what they called ‘stability.’ It was not until 1999 that our govt (under Clinton) officially took the position of supporting ‘regime change.’ Interestingly enough, the purported ‘crimes’ that US officials are constantly crowing about, such as gassing the Kurds and crushing the Kurdish and Shia rebellions (which we encouraged), were done with OUR support (allied in the former case, tacidly in the latter). Id say our government defintitley chose what you consider to be the ‘far crueler’ alternative.
