Simon: Of course it matters that Saddam killed so many, but that fact doesn't make the US the country of choice to reap revenge does it.
Exactly! The Europeans should have taken care of Saddam. It's your back yard after all. You should have dealt with it. You should have dealt with the Balkans too.

And in classic Nietzschean resentment, you make this weakness seem like a virtue.
