People like Hail the Leaf bring up things like allying with Saddam because we were against Iran (a realist policy, just to point that out to them), in a kind of moral equivilancy-based argument.

That's right, I love how Saddam was the U.S.'s right hand man in the 80's, but suddenly he's the scapegoat for 9/11 which he had nothing to do with. Our government helped him into power, gave him weapons, even chemical weapons, and sat idly by and watched happily as he gassed thousands of his own people to death with deadly chemicals that U.S. citizens paid for. Oh, silly bad man, we'll teach you a lesson, we'll put sanctions against your country, which won't hurt or bother you in the slightest, just cause more deaths, pain and needless suffering of the people of Iraq. Now suddenly he's this bad guy, well you know what? now that it's 20 years later and Saddam is finally on trial for all of these terrible things that we're suddenly horrified with, where are the people who helped him into power and funded him while he was doing all of these things? Why the fuck aren't THEY also on trial?
