And many die by simply avoiding the war, you don't win either way. I don't believe avoiding Iraq was an option. Kinda like those wacky Germans in the 40s. The reality is Saddam was a threat and needed to be eliminated.

Saddam was a threat in much the same way virtually every leader in the Middle East is a threat. They don't really get along with us well, but we aren't exactly in the sort of imminent danger that we should start a war over, and starting a war doesn't exactly ensure anything will get better.

Whether or not you agree with the war, Saddam certainly can't be compared to Hitler.
