In regard to the impending war upon Saddam Hussein's regime in Iraq, I submit this article. Setting aside the matters of foreign policy, prudence, national sovereignty and risk, I'd like to at least attempt to lay the moral issue to rest. The claim is not in the least that America is morally unstained. Simply that the removal of Saddam Hussein will be the payment of a debt we have owed the Iraqi people for 12 years, since the day we failed to remove their unholy dictator as we should have.
