I'm not hysterical, I'm simply pointing out how ridiculous your line of argument is. 

So, now you do care about a state sanctioning the flogging of a woman for being raped? Now we should intervene? Yes? No? Which one is it, Aussie? Is Arabia not for Arabs?

To remove a murderous, genocidal dictator or a murderous regime - no problems.  All you pacifists are good for is singing kumbaya. When has that ever worked?

Sadam and his two sons aren't using their hobby torture chamber anymore.  Is that a bad thing?

Damned right it is.

Why?

Because it directly contributed to the power-vacuums and instability which have plagued the joint ever since.

Not to mention handing the extremists a gift-wrapped, gold-plated inscribed invitation to launch terror attacks
upon the West.

Sadass, ruthless and despotic as he was, at least kept that toilet-seat firmly nailed down.

It was the West which removed the nails, not the jihadists.

Because the allied forces were not allowed to finish the job.  Too many regressives became too upset at the removal of a Murderous dictator.

It boils down to a few things:

1. The regressive leftist is a pacifist who refuses to acknowledge that war should even be the last resort.  I think a very big candle is the last resort to them.  That's why apparently sadam Hussein should've remained, because at least he killed jihadists... Along with millions of innocent people.
2. The regressive leftist believes that a majority being critical of a minority can never occur because of past deeds.  Therefore they live with this idea of "Arabia for Arabs" and "it's cultural difference" and "let them sort it out". Meanwhile child girls are having babies with middle aged men, women are being killed for showing a bit of leg or for being raped, hands are being chopped off for stealing a bit of bread dictators have torture chambers, slavery builds massive skyscrapers, slavery cleans the streets and toilets, sex slaver pays off debts and pleases paedophiles, homosexuals fear for their lives, apostates fear for their lives, and antisemitism is so spread that one can't visit the Middle East if one bears a J jewish surname.  But it's okay, "it's a different culture".  "Arabia for Arabs."
3. The regressive left doesn't actually believe in human rights for everyone: only for themselves.  That's why people like Aussie jumped through the roof with the torture stories out of NT, but torture stories out of the Middle East: "Arabia for Arabs".  This is fundamentally a rascist viewpoint.
4. The regressive left a hipocrites.  They want action from the west on Saudia Arabia, but apparently Saudia Arabia is the result of western interference.  They can't make up their mind on what they actually want.  us didn't interfere in Rwanda - BAD. The same genocide occurs in Iraq and US interferes: BAD.  Everything is the fault of the west and everything the west does is Bad.  Of course, this is fundamentally irrational, but then no one ever said regressive left were rational people

Gee, did they leave some little rocks to be made into even littler rocks?  Was not  Saddam hung?

Are we on the same page of history here?

Fact that millions must die under sadam in order to stop terrorism? Where's the logic in this?
