LIVES AND MONEY SAVED BY THE WAR

The Left's critique of the Iraq war focuses on the loss of American and Iraqi lives and on the cost of the war. Mark Steyn, writing in the Jerusalem Post, argues that intellectual honesty compels one to also calculate the lives saved from the bloodthirsty Baathist regime of Saddam Hussein, and the probable cost of continuing indefinitely the "containment" of Saddam, which the Left argues was a viable alternative to the invasion of Iraq and the overthrow of Saddam Hussein.
