Or do they just want to 'do a Hitler' or something?
What's kind of fucked is that if the GLORIOUS LEADER didn't go down this path of trying to acquire a credible nuclear deterrent him and the whole ruling elite would be Saddammed in the next decade. There's no incentive not to be a bit of a prick about it when you look at someone like Pakistan who gets treated with a lot more respect and deference than they ever would if they were non-nuclear.

So yeah, if he wants to carry on running an autocratic and heavy handed dictatorship the only way to stay alive long term is to try and get a nuclear chip to play at the table and make it obvious they would use it.

Well that can't be right. We knew Saddam had weapons of mass desstruction before we went in. It was a totally credible threat. Wasn't it.

I agree. Absolutely call someone on something if you find their post offensive, or distasteful, or just to give your opinion on what they've just done, but you absolutely cross a line when you edit their posts / post title.

So you are presumably happy to have any forum content edited by moderators as long as the editing meets with your approval. What if it doesn't? Are they abusing their moderator privileges then?

I saw the thread title and my first thought was "Okay, so what's the twist / joke / play on words going to be?". Nothing to get my underwear in a bunch about.

Are you happy if #x# occurs that you approve of? But what if you don't - Aren't you outraged?
Yes, and no. Happy?
