Read about it here: http://www.gwu.edu/~nsarchiv/NSAEBB/NSAEBB82/ Donald Rumsfeld ... was dispatched to the Middle East as a presidential envoy. His December 1983 tour of regional capitals included Baghdad, where he was to establish "direct contact between an envoy of President Reagan and President Saddam Hussein," while emphasizing "his close relationship" with the president ...During the spring of 1984 the U.S. reconsidered policy for the sale of dual-use equipment to Iraq's nuclear program, and its "preliminary results favor[ed] expanding such trade to include Iraqi nuclear entities" ...Iraq received massive external financial support from the Gulf states, and assistance through loan programs from the U.S. The White House and State Department pressured the Export-Import Bank to provide Iraq with financing, You're right.

But what I am saying is, there needs to be a good reason to invade a country or else you can get prosecuted or something like that. Countries just can't invade each other withour due cause, and the US didn't really have a reason to invade Iraq, certainly not to protect itself, because Saddam was not a direct threat.

But there was reason for any liberating or assassinating because Saddam did not pose a direct threat to the US. That's my point - there was no justification for the US invasion of Iraq.

You got a lot of countries to liberate. It'll probably take you a couple centuries, trillions upon trillions of dollars and at least a few million soldiers lives.
But do have fun! |
