So if your house got destroyed it would all be okay as long as they'd pay to rebuild it?  Not to mention that human suffering cannot be measured in dollars. These people are already so hurt that war would totally destroy them. Many people will be traumatised...  But I know I know... precise weapons and stuff. Yet people still die, don't they? They still miss. And little kids end up without their parents and their legs.
For your information I have spoken to A LOT of Iraqi people, and yes, they do want to get rid of Saddam, but they don't want their country under war. I have also spoken to our Serbian family friends before the bombings and they also wanted to get rid of Milosevic, but not by bombing. And that was one of the worst things that happened to them. They were crying on the phone to us every day because they were so scared. So I don't think you should judge what a nation thinks by talking to one of them. I don't think anyone would like it when their country would get attacked, and everyone would like to try other alternatives first.

First off, you didn't read my post very well. I talked to "one" Turkish immigrant, there were dozens of other middle eastern business men there as well, from turkey, from iraq, from iran, from Jordan. This is a small business persons organization for people from the middle east, to help each other succeed.
Secondly you have not answered the question put to you time and time again.
"What would you do?" You are very good at saying what not to do, but you give no solution that would actually work to solve the problem. So answer the question...worry about reletively few collateral casualties or worry about the hundereds of people who will die every day under the current regime?
