REPLACE HITLER'S NAME WITH SADDAM'S IN QUOTE.(PERSPECTIVE)

Byline: MICHAEL L. NARDACCI Albany

Imagine this statement being made before the United States entry in World War II: ``Even though Adolf Hitler has done vile acts, even against his own people, the United States has no ethical leg to stand on with its new policy of `pre-emptive defense.' ''

Substitute the name Saddam Hussein for Hitler and the arrogant mindlessness of Brian O'Shaughnessy's Sept. 7 letter becomes obvious.

While there is undoubtedly a part of the anti-war movement that is sincere in its beliefs, there is an unsettling percentage that is well aware of the brutality of the Hussein regime but wants no part of helping to end it.
