    Literal FOX News levels of the extrajudicially-murdered individual wasn't a saint either. Saddam sucked, but what the US brought was a million times worse.

    I really don't think that's the case.

        The USA and the UK were massive supporters of Saddam and his reign until we decided he was no longer useful. Literally giving him billions and billions of weapons. We allowed him to consolidate power and act as a destabilizing force in the region until we decided he was bad, but until then he was a very close ally. https://archive.globalpolicy.org/iraq-conflict-the-historical-background-/us-and-british-support-for-huss-regime.html

          That doesn't surprise me, the US in particular is very good at supporting their future enemies.

            Getting called ignorant by a Saddam apologist is... Something.

              Do you think removing the Ayatollahs would make things better or worse for the Iranian people?

              The Iranians would do better without the IR. You won't bomb them into revolting however.

                """Saddam apologist""" here meaning, anyone who opposed the Iraq War.

                Fucking hawks, I stg. Every time.

                  Worse, unquestionably.

                    I really hope you someday get to experience the receiving end of the politics you support.

                      People thought removing the saddam regime would make things better. Turns out it didn't and it cost the lives of 1 million. This isn't a game you just play.

                      Of course, take a look at Libya too.
