What part do you see as 'hype'? The fact that he gasses whole villages in his own country? Or fact that he has had his own relatives killed who he didn't trust? Or facts that he has lied for 12 years about the treaties and 17 UN resolutions he has thumbed his nose at?
What makes a war 'popular'? Who in their right mind is 'pro-war'? The people of the US overwhelmingly support the troops and the decision to go into Iraq (the polls were up to >70% for it as of Tuesday).
We aren't
for war, tho it is a necessary evil at times. I noticed you left out the Italians and Mussolini in the 30's and 40's - he wasn't much if any better than Hitler.

The only thing neccessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing.
While you are answering my questions, please tell us how the US 'gave Saddam the green light for invading Kuwait in the early 90's'... the UN upheld something being done in Bosnia during that time as well.
