More Iraq

I can't but feel that this is an extremely demagogic discourse, a rehearsed argument in favor of industry, phrased as if it were for the people.
I have never found "the people".
Give Us a Chance to Build a Democratic Iraq

Those are excellent reasons for overthrowing Saddam Hussein. As we all know, there are other powerful reasons, too — most notably the desire of my people to be free from repression and to plant the seeds of democracy in soil that has for too long been given over to tyranny.

And the fact that it plays too well in Bush hands, justifying the need for "democratic intervention". Wasn't it the excuse for Granada, Panama, Vietnam?
