Of course Blu never highlighted the plight of Iraqi children when Saddam was murdering them. But then, she probably thinks that those kids were all killing themselves in an elaborate scheme to trick people into thinking they were victims.
Iraqis have stated that they would rather have him there than the US nightmare, with its torture, fake news, and worse.
You also forget to mention that many (numbers vary from one half to one million) of the deaths that when Hussein was in power, especially of children were from our sanctions chlorine, so dysentary took the lives of many children. I fault Clinton for that.
Try asking a Kurd if they’d like Saddam back, or even a Shiite. The answer might surprise Jennie, our resident ‘truther’.
You do know, don’t you, that it was the US who told the Kurds to rise up against Sadaam Hussein, don’t you? Then, he retaliated against them. Not that what he did was okay, but don’t overlook the US’s part in it. Also, we sold him the chemicals, and let him use our helicoptors. So, look at the situation with a wider scope, objectively. And, before you accuse me of supporting Hussein, don’t, but I don’t accept the war profiteering of our country either. Most everyone has seen the famous picture of the deal made with Rumsfield shaking Hussein’s hand. We liked Hussein just fine after he gassed the Kurds. It was when he threatened to start using the Euro that turned him into our enemy.
Also, why is it that all the other nations with dictators as charming as Sadaam Hussein with torture the methodology of controlling the masses, not necessarily worthy of invading? Why just Sadaam? It’s common knowledge now, since there have been so many government officials that have spoken out, saying that our government knew damn good and well, that Sadaam Hussein was no threat. In fact, there were protests worldwide against our invasion. Not that our lame war profiteering networks would touch that story though. There were in some cases after the war started, a million people that were in the streets of some cities around the globe. The rest of the world knew that Iraq was an impoverished country. With an impotent military. If you want me to find the documentary, I probably could, of the protests worldwide, and you could watch it online, that video documentary. You probably wouldn’t watch it though. Although, you’ll probably say it’s a lie, but refuse to see the evidence, as is the case with Conservatives, I’ve noticed.
You argue with a blog full of historians Jennie, tell us about some historical occurances we don’t know about.
Look up “Operation Northwoods”. I know historians too, and they agree more with me. Find the official document. A challenge for you, from me….Part I
Also, “False Flag Operation” and look into a neutral source like one of the online encyclopedic sites. Part II of my challenge.
Also, why is it that if you acknowledge the above post of mine #5 as being correct, since you state you know these things, you claim such moral high ground for what our country has done in attacking a country that posed not harm to us, as has been acknowledged by weapons inspectors prior to the invasion, intelligence officers, and so many more stating-no WMDs in Iraq, and the lie that has led to the many many thousands of innocent people being slaughtered, losing limbs, and properly functioning minds and bodies. How can you so blandly disregard it, the injustice upon those people, who had no terrorists there prior to the invasion, without any anger, or sadness that it is our own country’s policies bringing about this horror? Because you don’t look at it directly, or are affected by it personally?
