Nov. 26 Interview in Alexandria Gazette-Packet Included Moran Statement in Praise of Saddam
His Dangerously Militant Allies, Including Abdurahman Alamoudi Posted by Jonathan Mark on Sunday, December 28, 2003
Jim Moran claims "Saddam was brutal, but he kept extremists out of the country for the most part."
The Alexandria Gazette-Packet's Nov. 26, 2003 edition included an interview with James Moran, who complained that there would probably be a civil war in Iraq if the U.S. left. His later joy at the capture of Saddam was nowhere to be found.

Moran even states that "Saddam was brutal, but he kept extremists out of the country for the most part." Thus Moran absolved Saddam of the charge that Saddam had been an extremist himself.

Most people other than Moran would say that Saddam's gassing of the Kurds, firing ballistic missiles at Israeli civilians and American troops, invasion of Kuwait and development of WMD made Saddam an extremist.
