Ultimately found like a trapped rat in a hole in the ground, the late brutal dictator Saddam Hussein had been the fifth President of Iraq, "serving" from July 16, 1979 to April 9, 2003.

Saddam Hussein was executed (hanged) December 30, 2006....so no.
The Iraqi government

Saddam was pushed out of power by military force, but never officially resigned his presidency.
