21. While I agree that the invasion was unjust, I don't know if I agree
About the fact that it is good to keep harmful dictators in power.
Dictators do often stabilize areas of unrest. On the otherhand, a lot of negative feeling build during his reign amongst those who do not benefit, creating a higher potential of violence when he eventually is ousted or dies a naturual death. There is bound to be fighting one way or another.
I think that it would be good to get the UN involved to try to build a more stable government based on Iraquis best interests, not American best interests.
