Iraq War - Why Saddam Needed to be Eliminated


            
             Why Saddam had to be removed from Power.
             It must be understood that United States is now engaged in a Great War, a world war, the third world war since the defeat of the Germans in World War I. The Germans came back for a second round in 1939, and the Allied victory in 1945 seemed to seal a great peace upon the world. But with the rise of the oil monarchies in the Middle East, the balance of power shifted, and vast amounts of money has been put into the hands of nations that less than a hundred years ago were still locked in tribal societies. On September 11, 2001 the culmination of a series of attacks upon the United States took place when the twin towers of the World Trade Center were destroyed. This was preceded by attacks on the marines in Lebanon, upon the US embassy in Kenya, upon the USS Cole, and upon the World Trade Center in 1993 when terrorists attempted to topple the twin towers. In each instance the US response to the massive bloodshed from these suicide bombings was to back away after a fruitless attempt to find and punish these faceless enemies. George W. Bush's response was appropriate in the wake of 9/11. He decided to take out the governments that were sponsoring terrorism and terrorist organizations. The Taliban, known sponsors of Al-Quada, were rooted out of Afghanistan. Saddam Hussein, a long known supporter of terrorists also became a target. The American message was: if you support attacks on America, no matter how tangential the connection, we are going to take your governments out wherever they are. .
             A closer look at the notorious regime that has occupied Iraq for the last string of decades reveals one of extreme totalitarian nature. Saddam Hussein's Baath party have ruled and controlled Iraq's vast resources by subjugating its citizens, as well as fellow government officials, to extreme, and often fatal forms of intimidation, terror, and fear. .
             His rule has also consisted of various military engagements that have demonstrated relentless aggression towards other nations in the Middle East.
