The question is a rhetorical fallacy, since it assumes automatically that a hypothetical iraqi considers what we're doing over there to be 'liberation', and that life under saddam hussein was 'terror'...

for all we know, the average person in iraq wasn't affected in the slightest by Saddam, so a rural Iraqi farmer might have known complete freedom under Husein's 'despotism'...

a good comeback would be to ask the right winger what he would say to the Iraqi who asks today if the US is going to compensate him for the livestock they killed or for the wife or son that got shot up at the checkpoint when they were out shopping for goat feed...
