Granted that the person who does an act is the one to shoulder the most blame for how it turns out, we are only pointing out that the US did mislead Saddam into thinking that it was a war he could win. That is nudging him in the direction of the invasion.

Did Saddam really think that the US would just let him move in, take the country, rape the women, slaughter the civilians and haul all of the national treasures in trucks back to Baghdad?

I guess he learned his lesson of not trusting the words of US officials now. He didn't know it then.

By the way, you forgot to add "steal the incubators and kill the babies".

And "haul national treasures in trucks" was funny. Do you really mean that? I mean, you MUST know that the only national treasure of Kuwait that is important enough to justify a war would leak from trucks and it is not exactly a commodity that Iraq lacks. I hope.
