Interesting that you can find a way to blame this on the West when Saddam could just have complied with the UN (who imposed the sanctions, not the "West"), had the sactions removed, and given his people a better life.
- acqq 11y agoActually, the US wanted Saddam away just the same like they wanted Assad away. There was nothing Saddam could do except for allowing the US to take over the whole country and prosecute (and kill) him. That's why the info about WMD was faked, both by the US and the UK. The UK was extreme, doing copy paste of the works of students from the internet. It's an interesting read. The UK articles from 2003(!): http://www.theguardian.com/politics/2003/jun/08/media.openup http://www.theguardian.com/politics/2003/jun/08/media.openup http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-159314/No-10-admits-mistake-Iraq-dossier.html http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-159314/No-10-admits-... "The Government was accused of attempting to mislead Parliament and the general public after it emerged a dossier of evidence against Saddam Hussein was largely lifted from a Californian postgraduate student's outdated thesis."
