Santa Claus arrested
Laukev7:
Or maybe it's guilt for invading a country under false pretexts.
Calum:
don't feel sorry for him, his luck ran out. the US are making a huge palaver out of this considering they installed saddam in the firstplace, so they are responsible for all the killing etc he did.
other dictators have been luckier. i am thinking of thatcher and pinochet to start with. and mugabe, that two faced racist. or how about some of the USSR leaders or the chinese ones? why aren't the US marhing into china or zimbabwe and sorting it out? i wonder if it might be because china and zimbabwe don't sell oil to the US?
and i do think that until the US comes up with ANY EVIDENCE AT ALL that iraq had long range weapons, i will have to consider the term "United States Intelligence" a complete oxymoron.

Careful. Everytime you insult the US government an American drops dead. Or at least leaves this forum.

Let's get the facts straight. The USA didn't put Saddam Hussein in power. He did it himself with the help of the Baath Party. Also:

So as you can see a lot of non-Americans are denying their part in the rise of Saddam Hussein and his war crimes. Also, don't forget that Saddam Hussein got his tanks, MiG jets and Kalasnikov rifles from Russia. You might have noticed if you bothered to look that a lot of people in the mid east use Russian made weapons.
The Americans had to clean up your mess as usual.
