The world is a better place with Saddam Hussein gone.

For all who love freedom and peace, the world without Saddam Hussein's regime is a better and safer place.

Kim Jong-un's style is more suggestive of Saddam Hussein or his murderous son, Uday Hussein.

Nuclear deterrence doesn't work outside of the Russian - U.S. context; Saddam Hussein showed that.

The fact is, our men and women in uniform, the bravest in the world, did everything they could to protect this country from a terror threat and to protect others from the terror threat that was Saddam Hussein. And nobody can deny that we are in a better place because Saddam Hussein is dead.

It is now conventional wisdom that Americans do not care why we went to war in Iraq, that it is enough that the world is better off without Saddam Hussein.
