[quote=TheManWithAUsername][quote=Anonymous]so the question is, could the US have gotten Saddam without the war (Libya style)? and what would have been the result.[/quote] No, I wouldn't call that THE question. THE question might be, "Was it all worth it?" There are good ethical arguments that even that question misses the point. On your question, though, I'd like to believe that if we had devoted 10 years, $1 trillion, and 5,000 American lives to assassinating him instead, then yes, we would have. I'm inclined to think it would have taken far less money and incomparably fewer lives. Alternatively, maybe we could have just paid him $500 billion to leave and saved the time, the lives, and half the money.[/quote]
