Re: Sadaam Captured Alive
Let's try not to turn this into a religious debate. We've had too much of those in the past few months. Besides, its off topic anyway.
Anyway...
About in a war you have to use nukes and A-bombs, etc. to show the other country that they shouldn't "F" with us is just plain wrong. All that is is bullying only to an extent where millions of people would be killed.
War is not always just countries at each other's throats wanting to wipe each other out. This war in particular was not a war with Iraq as a whole but with Saddam's regime. Nuking the place not only would have made the war much larger than it would have to be (it would almost certainly draw other countries into the mix) but it would have also killed countless numbers of the people we were trying to save.
Thinking that war is just a school yard fight where the sole goal is to hurt the other guy as much as possible in any way possible is naive. Its people thinking things like that that will lead to nuclear war and holocaust.
