The UN is the place to discuss and solute problems in the world.The UN have limited power and influence as could be seen recently. They were never going to find Saddam's weapons no matter how long they looked and if they had been left to inspect the likely result is that by the time they did find something, Saddam would have already taken a chunk out of Israel or Kuwait, or indeed Iraq.
Within a few days of war we have already seen evidence of Saddam's lies regarding SCUD missiles. That's more evidence in three days than a team of inspectors found in several months.

WMD... the States have the biggest WMD.I don't think you are quite clear on the issues involved. It is quite acceptable for any country to own these weapons. The issue is *how* they are used. The US don't go around bombing their own people or the Europeans and can be trusted to own such weapons.

But nothing has changed in Iraq since 1991!You are correct...Saddam is killing his own people and others and has been for decades.

The whole region will collapse.I very much doubt it. The Iraqi's will be liberated and will be able to enjoy life.

I'm sorry. Since there was no war for some generations things like pain and hurt have been forgotten. I think I knew more about your history than you about mine :)
Shame you don't know more about the topic you are discussing =)

Of course everyone wants to remove the regime but killing the regime's people can't be the solution.It's not the solution, it's an unfortunate side-effect as "fuzzy thoughts" mentioned.
