Saddam Hussein

This lens is a reminder about who Saddam Husssein is and what he has done. The world seems to have a short memory when it comes to the Iraq war and it is so easy to demonize one side or another but let's not forget what happened. The world is a better place without this tyrant. Regardless of how people view the current war in Iraq, and the on going internal struggles, let the blame be placed on the doorstep of Saddam.

    You are right, people do forget about these atrocities as time passes. And we also forget that it is the Western Powers who backed and supported this regime for too many years.
    Here are some Angel Blessings from me to you. Also I am now featuring this lens on my lens "Poem: What Do You Wear to Get Arrested?"

    I don't see any mention of the al-Anfal campaign and the Kurdish genocide here. Let's not forget the men who were rounded up and summarily shot.

    The US was correct to go to Iraq, this man was pure evil and needed to be removed. As for Weapons of Mass destruction there were weapons found and many other locations where it was obvious that weapons had been but were removed. Read the link above about Kamel and you will see why and when many of them were moved. Saddam was evil not stupid. He knew it was only a matter of time before forces moved against him. I mean the U.N and the US both told him repeatedly 'cooperate by such and such a date or we are moving in'.
    Excellent lens, well put together, excellent links, 5 star, favorite and lensrolled

    It is important that we don't forget these horrific crimes. It is so disappointing that the US has let itself be tarnished by the activities at Abu Ghraib and Gunatanamo.
