You wouldn't be implying that Saddam Hussein has anything in common with Hitler, would you? Please, please say 'No.'

Actually, my government teacher did that the other day. He put up a picture of the British Prime Minister before Winston Church Hill, and then one of Kofi Anon (sp?), and kept on flashing them back and forth. He then drew a parallel between Kofi Anon and the Brithish Prime Minister. He said that Adolf Hitler stock-piled weapons which was against the treaty that ended WWI, but told the world that he would not attack with them. They believed him, much like Kofi Anon is believing Saddam Hussein now.
Now, I personally don't agree with pre-emptively attacking Iraq, but what you said reminded me of what my government teacher said, so I thought I'd pass it on.

PS. Just to insert a little humour into the thread, if you haven't read
this from theonion.com, then I recomend that you do. The headline is: "Bush seeks UN support for 'US Does Whatever it Wants' Plan"
