What were the Differences between Hitler and Saddam?
There are many, many of these differences. The two people were from very different time periods. Also, Saddam Hussein was an Iraqi Arab, Hitler was a naturalized German whose family came from Austria. Saddam Hussein did not give orders to kill as many people as Hitler gave orders to kill. As a traditional Arab person, Saddam Hussein cared a lot about making sure that the people with the most power were mostly close relatives of his, from the same clan as him. Hitler did not care very much about what FAMILY people were from, but instead, he used other ways to judge how much power people should have. Many times, Saddam Hussein gave orders that people in his own family should be killed. Hitler never did this. Also, Saddam sometimes punished people by killing them himself, Hitler did not. Saddam had children, and liked to have sex. Hitler did not have children, and almost never wanted to have anything to do with women. Both of them ordered the use of poison gas in battle, but only Hitler was himself *hurt* by poison gas in battle, in World War I. Hitler was convicted of a crime and spent time in prison -- he came to power only after he was released from prison. By contrast, Saddam was convicted of crimes, spent time in prison, and was put to death, but this was only after he lost power. Saddam was put to death by hanging because he was convicted in a court. Hitler was not put to death by anybody, but committed suicide by shooting himself. There was a time when Hitler wanted to be a writer and an artist. By contrast, there was a time when Saddam Hussein wanted to be a writer, but Saddam Hussein never thought about becoming an artist.
What is President Barack Obama's midddle name?
Hussein. It should be noted that the president inherited his father's name (Barack Hussein Obama); this particular name is very common in Muslim cultures, such as Kenya, where his father was born and raised. "Hussein" has no negative meanings associated with it in those countries, while in the United States, many Americans associated it with the Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein.
What real reason did George Bush have for invading Iraq?
President Bush gave Saddam Hussein an ultimatum: Either provide definitive proof of disposal of weapons of mass destruction, or else resign as leader (dictator) of the country. He did neither. Accordingly, Congress authorized the use of force should Hussein not comply. Virtually every congressman and other high ranking official in America and indeed throughout the world thought that Hussein still had WMDs. Hussein's downfall stopped the official tyranny in Iraq. Unfortunately terrorists still are causing widespread mayhem, not only in Iraq, but throughout the world.
What is Barack Obama's middle name?
President Barack H. Obama, II's middle name is Hussein, a traditional family name. He was named after his father, Barack Hussein Obama, Sr.Barack Obama's middle name is Hussein. He is named after his father, Barack Hussein Obama Sr. It should be noted that "Hussein" is a very common name among people who are Muslim, and it does not have any relation whatsoever to the dictator Saddam Hussein. Further, Barack's father was no longer a Muslim by the time he married Ann Dunham, but the name was in the family, so Barack inherited it.barak obamas middle name is hussien
Did Barack Obama have another name?
Yes. It is Hussein, the same as Barack Hussein Obama, Sr., his father, for whom he is named: President Barack Hussein Obama, II. It should be noted that while in America, the name "Hussein" reminds some people of the former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein, in many other countries, it is a very common name (like John or Joseph) and has no bad meanings at all in those countries. President Obama inherited the name from his biological father and had no say in it.
What type of lifestyle did Saddam Hussein live?
Saddam Hussien lived a life of deciete and hate. He wanted only to gain, and never to give. He invaded Kuwait in because he needed to pay his debt in Europe, he plotted to kill thousands of people in the Trade Center and Pentegon massacres(cause I'm one of those Idiots who think Saddam and Iraqi people hit the world trade centres and should be shiped over there for my arrogence), and he hid from his deserved fate for years... He didn't care about the path of destruction he left behind him, he cared only for his next conquest. Saddam Hussein is nobody's hero; Iraq is still suffering from his rein of terror. Now Saddam is dead, and no one cherishes his memory. Sorry to tell you this but Saddam was backed by the America Government for years as was Osama Bin Ladin and Saddam was not responsible for the trade centre and Pentagon attacks. It was all a lie by the American Government to justify going to war. Their aim is to control the natural resources in the region. I do agree he was a tyrant.
