Redpill me on Saddam Hussein.
Was he a big guy?
he was a genocide mad man who invaded nations, killed hundreds of thousands, possibly more in the Iran war, had WMDs too. Gassed Kurds, gassed swamp Muslims too, gassed Shia.
Im glad to got rid of him and got all their oil.

Dunno much about him. All I know is that, when he was killed, the whole middle east plunged into anarchy, and muslim containment was breached.
Pretty sure we made a really, really, really bad call knocking him out of power at this point.
He was a necessary evil. A stabilizer in the middle east...keeping the sand niggers at bay.
Until Jew run Murica overthrows him and thus sand niggers run wild.

former friend of CIA
once he got the "former" label he died.
So, never sell out to Anglo-American Scumsters.
Never, never ever.

he did nothing wrong
we overthrew him for the oil we didn't even get
we're trying to do the same in syria but are failing miserably

#1 threat to isreali ambitions at the time so they told america to go get him and they did. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UoB80Yk9NYg
Saddam himself was not a nice guy but then again you need a guy like saddam in that part of the world. He was pretty secular and saw himself as the bringer in of neo Mesopotamia. He was interested in the ancient history of iraq (summer, ancient cities of Ur etc)

when not a 'former' US sell out, happily killed thousands with no move by western democracies.
>>81326855
He was not worse than Erdogan but in Iraq it was more easy to simply kill people. Turkey is still on a good way to become like Iraq.

Republican Guard?

He was getting out of control. He was brought to heal a bit over Kuwait but then ultimately thumbed his nose at his American masters.
He was a good pupper to America. He kept the region stably producing oil and in addition to that only had to sell the oil in USD. He could do it any way he wanted and he did.
He loved his work, he loved his life.
Perhaps he thought he successfully defended his borders after running from Kuwait.
Still though, how is that selling out.?

Are you me?

Like starting a 10 year long war with Iran?

This is a misdirection and disinformation to keep the discussion away from a certain country (((a)))

Countries remained countries. No civil wars. Destabilisation direct part of war and (attempts) to repair when finished, as opposed to side effect of a "country" just being anarchy.
