Why is this a problem? At worst, the U.S. is a barbaric despot. If so, we've traded one barbaric despot for another, but with a reduced rate of killing. Of course, the U.S. may not be as bad as Hussein because its motives are less bad. So, Iraq is better off for that reason as well.
If you have a solution that involves the removal of hussein and a complete cessation of all killing, I'm sure the democrats would like to hear from you.
