But regardless of who the man is, the US government cannot do what was alleged to have happened, which is send in the military to simply kidnap the democratically elected leader of a sovereign state.

This is the same as the Hussein argument...bad man...must be taken out. Well fine, but you must have the backing of the UN to do this, otherwise what is to stop some future nation from diong the same to the US over our weapons of mass destruction programs (including chemical, biological and nuclear)? Violating the sovereignty of another nation is an act of war plain and simple, if the Bush administration keeps doing this (this is nation #3 if true), pretty soon there will be a banding together of foreign powers against the US.
