Default Re: Thread for Opponents of Iraq War: \"Why\"?

[ QUOTE ]
If good people were in charge, I would support the Iraq war. However, there is no 20th century president or major political figure who falls into this category. Basically, the war would need to be run on every level by self-sacrificing idealists of the highest qualifications and standards.

[/ QUOTE ]

Just to be clear:

So if you thought the people in charge were saints, but fulfilled the mission of the US coalition in terms of ousting Saddam and instituting a democracy among other nation building efforts, the war would become supportable in a positive sense?

What specific factors would need to change to decisively effect your transition from opposition to support?

What on the ground do you expect to change should more selfless, genuine people be leading the war?
