Re: Invading Iran and Kuwait and Saudi Arabia and sponsoring terrorist groups for decades How do they make someone as stupid as you? Just when did Saddam Hussein invade Saudi Arabia? Don't tell me that the border skirmish during Operation Desert Storm amounted to an invasion. It was a tactical raid, not an invasion. As to the Bush 41 claim that Iraq was prepared to invade Saudi Arabia, we have this: Remember how back amidst the build-up to the last Iraqi war, the Pentagon invoked satellite photos of 265,000 Iraqi troops massed to invade Saudi Arabia. Jean Heller, a journalist from the St. Petersburg Times in Florida persuaded her newspaper to buy two photos at $1,600 each from the Russian commercial satellite, the Soyuz Karta. No troops showed up on the photos. "You could see the planes sitting wing tip to wing tip in Riyadh Airport," Ms. Heller says, "but there wasn't any sign of a quarter of a million Iraqi troops sitting in the middle of the desert." Source: workingforchange.com *** As to the Bush 43 claim that Hussein was training terrorists, the principle evidence presented by the lying Colin Powell on Feb. 5, 2004 turned out to be completely fraudulent. The purported "terrorists" were located in the Kurdish territories which were under U.S. protection, and inaccessible to Saddam Hussein.
