On Saddam's reign of terror, the Iraqis weren't exactly saints were they?

Answer 1

Maybe Bill Clinton can answer that question for you:

"...There is no more clear example of this threat than Saddam Hussein's Iraq. His regime threatens the safety of his people, the stability of his region and the security of all the rest of us."

Answer 2

what do you mean? the Iraqis are people and like all people they deserve their security and freedom.

and actually, the Iraqi people are worse off now than they were during Saddam Hussein's 'reign of terror'. under Saddam, groups like al quaeda were not in control of certain areas. they had no power and could not kidnap innocent people and kill them like they are now. and actually, the current 'democratic' government is not at all better than the former one. many of the police forces are infiltrated by shiite militias.

Answer 3

No, but two wrongs don't make a right either.

At least in Saddam's Iraq you stood a good chance of staying out of trouble if you supported his regime. There was some logic in his brutality. Nowadays it is completely random and anyone can fall victim to the violence. So sorry, I can see where your argument is going but it isn't logically sustainable.

Answer 4

I agree with you . they do not have saddam to follow now, or be afraid of but they are still fighting the ones that got rid of him. go figure!! We have our noses in some others country's fight when we can't even fight here for the health and welfare for the poor , or veterans that have served their country here
