Yes, contained and comfortable, all as his people suffered from a decade of sanctions (and torture) which would have went on forever as he had no plans to comply with any security resolution. Sanctions are supposed to get the government to change their course of action. But here it didn't work. Nice that you'd have just hung back and let the suffering continue, mumbling stuff about containers from your comfy couch. Pretty sad we have to explain going in to a place like that on a WMD basis. There's weren't WMDs in Rwanda either, and I suppose you'd have let the Hutu government continue their slaughter.
Oh the Lack of Humanity.
