I've long said that the US has claimed what I see as the one legitimate reason for invading Iraq: ousting a brutal dictator. We've done it for Germany and Serbia (and in Serbia, we were defending the lives of Muslims), so we should free the people of Iraq, right? However, my opposition to the war was and still is because of the irony -- liberate Iraq? Who's going to liberate us? If the Bush administration can't do it here, then why should we trust them to do it overseas?

Well, yet again, Tom Tomorrow hits the nail on the head far more eloquently than I can. If you don't read his blog, start, dammit.
