saddam

Saddam was Sunni, a minority in Iraq, but saddam kept the Sunni in power.

Even countries that were against military action, such as France, believed Saddam had WMDs.

And Saddam Hussain's army threw preemie babies from incubators out in the street.

Qadafi, Saddam and Khomenei had absolutely nothing to do with Israel.

My point is that we fucked things up by getting rid of saddam and not putting a powerful repressive regime in place.

Others contend that the longer we wait, the more dangerous Saddam will grow.

US support of Saddam during the Iran-Iraq war.

Yet whether or not Iraq becomes the second front in the war against terrorism, one thing is certain: there can be no victory in this war if it ends with Saddam Hussein still in power.

We didn't have enough of the old school, human intelligence of the early cold war, that could have helped in making a better determination of whether or not Saddam actually had WMD's (or was building them, whatever).

See, for example: Saddam Hussein, Gaddafi, North Korea, Cuba, etc.

The decision had been made, yes, but because we thought there were hidden caches and moving caches that the weapons inspectors were ill-equipped to find, and Saddam was comfortable with everyone (Iran especially) believing that.

It wasn't an insane thing to believe.) Saddam just made a bad bet when he thought we would go back to inspections the last time, he had played his little good guy/bad guy game too long.

> "Waiting it out is not an option." Oh, you mean like Saddam putting his soccer coach in a plastics shredder?

Lots of people think its searching the contents of each image so when you search for "Saddam Hussein" it comes back with pictures of him.

After "doing something" about Saddam Hussain.

Next look up all that funding Bush Sr and CIA gave Saddam and bin Laden while docs warned that it could have "blowback." Can't blame them for later wars or terrorist attacks involving same names, though, can we?

Since the government was no longer printing the older currency, it was then immune to inflation by Saddam's government.

They assign disproportionate power to the top of the thugocracy (Saddam Hussein being an extreme example).

Saddam's morality is vastly closer to the historical norm than that of educated elite Westerners.
