Heather: Nickel perceptions on the war.
This is just my opinion, so take it for the brass pennies it's worth. It seems to me that Saddam's biggest defenders never had to live under his rule, like the anti-war activists here in the U.S. and Muslims from other countries (Egypt, Palestinian areas, Jordan, etc.). His biggest detractors, those who most want him eating daisies by the roots, are Iraqis who have had to live under his rule.
Seems that second group might have some insight given their experience with the man, eh?
