I did that recently here in another thread. The per month average of deaths under Saddam (since 1971 or 1970 till capture) is higher than the death rate after Saddam.
You may be foregetting the Iran/Iraq war and genocide of Kurds- lots of casualties.
Don’t have it on this computer (favorite).

Thank god, because otherwise I’d think that 3,000 dead Iraqis a month was, like, some kind of insane horrorshow. Now that Dugger has put it in the context of “historical trend data” I feel that I, and the Iraqi people, can live with it.

Dugs, you are by far the king of idiot trolls. By far. Congratulations.

I can’t believe that Saddam Hussein was killing 3000+ of his citizens/month in the year or two previous to our invasion.

It would have been so much nicer if we had gone to Darfur, where, per historical trend data, more have died than have been “saved” by our action in deposing Hussein.

That’s what happens when he reads Camus.

We know it’s a failure, he knows its a failure, Rove knows it’s a failure. They know that we know. Rove probably instructed him to make no negative reference to something everybody already knows.

As for Saddam’s crimes: the most grotesque aspect of war supporters like you, Dugger, is your false humanitarianism, never used as a principle for it’s own sake. It’s only value, the only joy, or vitality you display with regard to humanitarianism is as a partisan club to beat Iraq War opponents. One recalls the Pharisee praying loudly so that others could hear him.

Simply vile.

Blah, blah, blah.

Let’s rebuild Spandau so he can take some responsibility.
