Who was the president of the US during the first Iraq war?

Saddam Hussein was president of Iraq from July 16, 1979 until April 9, 2003. He was president during the Iraq War until his capture on December 13, 2003. The next two Iraqi Presidents, who both served during the US-led Occupation period, were Ghazi Mashal Ajil al-Yawer and Jalal Talabani. However, it is worth noting that these two presidents have significantly less power than Saddam Hussein did since (1) Saddam had dictatorial powers as opposed to the current government which is democratic and (2) Iraq now has a more powerful Prime Minister, which it did not have before.

They pass all federal laws in Iraq, and elect the President of Iraq, who then selects a Prime Minister from the majority coalition of the Council. The Council of Union has not yet been elected, and will be elected by regional elections. Its exact responsibilities are not laid out in the Iraqi Constitution, and will be determined by the Council of Representatives.


What was the primary cause for an increase in the public's support for a military invasion of Iraq during the six-month period leading to the start of the war?

There was little support in the UK for the war in Iraq. Thousands protested nationwide and marched into London to illustrate their strength of feelings against the planned invasion of Iraq. Some statistics show that public support is reported to have increased after Prime Minister Tony Blair stated that Iraq has to be invaded as Saddam Hussein was in possession of weapons of mass destruction (WMD) which could be released within forty five minutes and was refusing to surrender them. However these weapons were never discovered and in 2005 a government report was issued to confirm that no WMD had been found.
