Don't know if I qualify as a "Leftist", but; Of course he was a dirty rotten
scoundrel and got precisely what he deserved. And that helps America out,
how?

Not true, of course, but it’s easier to present false-hoods than read some
of my notes. People used to just complain about how long they were but your
approach is rather unique: making up what you think I probably said and
commenting as though I did. And don’t say you’ve read all my notes Irene.
How
many times have I reproached you for asking a question that I answered in an
earlier but longish note? I have covered all of these matters that you say I
haven’t covered. As to Leftists presenting the same arguments and
identifying
with Radical Islam, that is well-documented. As to the Leftists here on
Lit-Ideas jumping to Saddam’s defense each time I attack him, that has been
well
document also.
“Okay, tell me about Qutb and Militant Islam and how the Leftists mourn
Saddam ... “ They say pretty much what you say Irene, Of course he was a
dirty
rotten scoundrel, but he didn’t do any harm to the US. He wasn’t doing
anything wrong by shooting at American and British planes who flew over his
land.
He should have been left in charge of his own country. The US had no right
to depose him, etc.
I’m waiting for a Leftist to say “of course he was a dirty rotten
scoundrel”
and following it with, “and got precisely what he deserved.” Have you
heard any Leftists on Lit-Ideas use that last clause?
And Irene, you and some others continue to confuse “Militant Islam” with
“
Islamism.” It is absurd to say there was no “Militant Islam” in Iraq
before
we got there. Iraq was the most Militant Islamic nation in the Middle East
before we got there.

Or they quit arguing with you because you'll say anything and everything, no
matter how contrary to reality, such as "Leftists" being sympathetic to
Saddam. That's total nonsense but you insist on it. Every time you're
pressured
with facts about the mess in Iraq, you go back to Qutb or other such
things, as if that explains everything. So, I stopped talking to you. Even
as you
go on and on about Militant Islam, you don't say what to do about it. It's
rather pointless, since even Bush says we're not winning in Iraq. There was
no Militant Islam in Iraq before we got there... Okay, tell me about Qutb
and Militant Islam and how the Leftists mourn Saddam ...

People usually do that just before they quit arguing with me.
