3,240

[Sethomas]

I attended a lecture during the Student Walk-Out in which a former military tactician demonstrated point after point how Hussein couldn't possibly be a threat to anyone, even if he did have WsMD stored out the wazoo. So I've always looked at the war from a humanitarian perspective, and have generally been against it. Putting the past behind us, it's highly implausible that Saddam was likely to kill 3,240 individuals before the end of his reign, IMO.

With that in mind, the utilitarian in me thinks that Bush should be indicted for crimes against humanity. It's a shame that global justice is so far-fetched.
