Where's Saddam Hussein When the U.S. Needs Him?

[CrusaderFrank]

YES!

Progressives love their dictators. They all share disdain, hatred and loathing for people

As the OP states, Saddam "was a secular military strongman who very effectively controlled religiously motivated parties".

By killing and terror,your an ass hole

lakhota, you're a joke piece of work...... now wishing to bring back a vicious dictator who gassed 5000 of what you and that stupid writer Sheer called, "religious fanatics" which included men, women and CHILDREN

And the writer of that article Sheer.... is just looking for anyone to blame for Iraq falling today and shift it away from , Kerry, Obama .....the real persons TO BLAME

Kerry might not want to get off his plane...he might get 1000's of shoes thrown at him

In Saddam's view the Kurdish Rebel had joined with Iran and were traitors. Using chemical weapons on them was SOP and was routinely ignored by Saddam's main supporter, President RayGun. So it was for those poor folks in that Kurdish town......Thanks Ronnie.

The reason Iraq is falling apart is that is was never really a country anyway. It's borders were draw in a far way place by people who didn't give a damn about ethnic line or this tribe or that.......

When the occupation government disbanded the Iraqi Army and set loose hundreds of thousands of unemployed Iraqis it was only a matter of time before the Civil War started.

"RayGun"?

That got stale around 1965.
