War with Iraq.
War with Iraq has caused more good than bad. Preventive war with Iraq has removed a hostile regime bent on relentless expansion and pursuing weapons of mass destruction and a threat to global security. This hostile regime could of put weapons of mass destruction into the hands of terrorists, which was a direct threat to lives of American. Any regime that fits either of those descriptions, United States has no choice but to use military action against them should they not corporate (Lindsey 40+). The disarmament of Saddam was vital to the world's security, because it would have been impossible, for any country, to completely disarm Saddam, whose power depended on the acquisition of nuclear weapons. He had been working on building weapons of mass destruction since the 1970's, spending hundreds of billions of dollars to obtain them and forgoing billions more in oil revenues during the 1990's, because of sanctions opposed by the United Nations just to achieve his secret programs. He knew that having the weapons he would be untouchable, knowing by giving up these weapons up he would not be able to exist. The entire Saddam regime depended upon his weapons to afflict fear in neighboring countries that opposed his regime.
