All this Putin bashing, cancel this cancel that are going to hit ordinary citizens and not Putin. It is exactly what happened in IRAQ. Sanctioned crippled the citizens and war and aftermath created such an insecurity, they are nostalgic about Saddam now. What Russia really needs is a democratic process to remove Putin. Even if he is good, he served too long.

Jabouri had spent 11 years in prison under Saddam. His relatives were executed because they were Communists or members of the Shiite Dawa party. Now, though, he insists that life was better back then.
No one can know what would have happened to Iraq had Saddam stayed in power. With that question unanswerable, many Iraqis look back at the death and destruction of the past 15 years, and in a haze of nostalgia for the stability of dictatorship, believe they would have been better off with Saddam.

"Those who came after haven't improved the infrastructure, they haven't built anything, they haven't done anything for the people," says Jabouri. "Saddam's was a brutal regime. But now, I really regret hitting the statue."
