Wrong again. The Regan administration saw Sadam as a bulkhead against Islamic fundamentalism and supported him in his war against Iran. U.S. Presidents long before GW Bush held the office, yearned for an Iraq without Saddam Hussein. You sound like Dick Cheney after the 9/11 commission found no link between Saddam and 9/11. "They don't know what I know." Well, give us some facts. Too clever to leave fingerprints? Please. It may be hard to know in advance what terrorists may do, but once they've done it, it's pretty easy to backtrack. Saddam was under the microscope. He couldn't sneeze without the CIA knowing. Saddam was a brutal thug, an egotistical fool who, despite the largest standing army in the middle east and enormous oil wealth, lost every war he got involved in. Besides persecuting his own people, he fanned the flames of terrorism throughout the middle east. He was far too clever to leave fingerprints along the way.
