	Monkeyfist.com: Invading Iraq or Courting Calamity?
		Many people who support the anticipated US war on Iraq say that Saddam Hussein's government is a menace to many of the 22.5 million Iraqis over whom he rules and a threat to the security of the United States and the stability of the Middle East.
		Due to the collapse of Iraq's economy from sanctions and regular US bombings for the last ten years, "the bulk of the population is now totally dependent on the government of Iraq for a majority, if not all, of their basic needs", according to a UN report quoted in the Washington Post.
		If the US wants a real democracy in Iraq, which is itself very doubtful, it's largely to blame for strengthening Hussein's grip on Iraqi society, leaving a violent and immanently disastrous regime change as the only option.

	Iraq
		The consequences of the Iraq war will linger for a long time to come as the use of controversial weapons by the United States is expected not only to leave the Bush Administration with a hefty bill, but also to cause a number of environmental and health implications.
		The US-led war on Iraq is more than a failure of American strategy, diplomacy and thinking; in its heedless rejection of international institutions and their norms of co-operation, it represents a dangerous retreat to the law of the jungle.
		It is not Saddam Hussein and his henchmen, but Iraq's 12 million children who will be most vulnerable to the massive use of force that the US plans to unleash against their country in the coming months.

		Their predictions were almost entirely wrong, from the existence of weapons of mass destruction to the millions of oppressed Iraqis who were supposed to join the liberation.
		Iraq has no opposition government on the ground (the one in exile is totally unknown to the Iraqi people and has not even been inside Iraq for years) and no opposition army.

		And these remarks, in effect denying that Iraq was played for a sucker, must be considered in light of the Iraqi government's stubborn refusal for some time to admit the harm done to the country by US bombing, and to downplay the number of their casualties.
		Indeed, there is evidence that Washington encouraged Iraq to attack Iran and ignite the war in the first place.{74} And during this period of American support of Hussein, he was certainly the same odious, repressive, beastly thug as when he later came under American moralistic rhetorical fire.
		Iraq, on the other hand, according to American, British and Israeli experts, was five to ten years away from being able to build and use nuclear weapons.{80} It's unlikely that the president himself believed there was any such danger.

		But recent violence in Iraq demonstrates that the war continues to remain a central issue in the minds of most Americans, one that has demanded A1 coverage and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future.

		However, since crime and acts of terror cannot be predicted, being able to track individuals will not increase security.
