Who killed more Iraqis Sadam Hussein or The US Congress?
Sadam Hussein. Saddam Hussein was executed for the murder of approximately 150 Kurds, although he was responsible for the murders of many others. The US invasion of Iraq resulted in the deaths of at least 150,000 Iraqis. The Americans did not kill many Iraqis. In terms of combat and civilians accidents involving American troops, the number is a few hundred thousand. If all Iraqi conflict-based deaths are counted in that period, the civilian casualties reach to around one million. As concerns the troops, they killed more Iraqis per year than did Saddam Hussein (unless the Iran-Iraq War is considered an act of killing Iraqis because he launched it), but Saddam was in power for 24 years as opposed to the American Invasion which was for a third of that time.

Why did Saddam Hussein attack the Kurds?
Saddam Hussein, strapped for cash due to his eight-year war in Iran on behalf of the U.S., decided to regain Kuwait as a means of increasing his income. Kuwait had been carved out of southern Iraq by British troops. When asked her thoughts on this move, U.S. Ambassador April Glaspie replied that the U.S. government had "no opinion" and that the matter of Kuwait was not associated with North America. But when he moved his troops into Kuwait, President George H.W. Bush mobilized a United Nations force against him, backed by a U.S. $4 billion secret fund provided by his business associates in Saudi Arabia.Answer1. misreading position of US Before the invasion of Kuwait, Saddam Hussein had met with the American ambassador to discuss the problems Iraq had with Kuwait. From the meeting, Saddam Hussein believed that the Americans were sympathetic to Iraq's situation and were not likely to go to Kuwait's aid. this might have encouraged the Iraqi leader to think that he would not face severe consequences.2. Saddam Hussein's leadershipSaddam Hussein, a Sunni Muslim, had always seen himself as a great leader of the Arab world. In his eyes, Kuwait's repeated refusals to give in to Iraqi demands were seen as defiance and a personal attack on him.Saddam Hussein was also worried that there would be an uprising in Iraq against him, especially by the Shi'a Muslims, who formed the majority in Iraq. the Iran-Iraq war had left the Iraqi economy and country devastated. Although Saddam Hussein claimed that the war with Iran had been a success, it did not appear to his people. prices of basic necessities were extremely high and the people were unhappy with him. moreover, the Iraqi government had built up a large army numbering a million personnel during the war. Saddam Hussein feared that the Iraqi army would turn against him if the situation in Iraq did not improve.He is person who is filled with ambitions and would not like others to defy against him. he wants everyone to do at his bidding. to prevent defiance, Hussein had to be very firm.3. Iraq's official reason4. worsening relationshipAfter Saddam ended his war with Iran, Iraq was in debt. Many accusations were thrown at Kuwait, 1st it was Kuwait was stealing oil from Iraq (Kuwait is an oil rich country) after that, Saddam claimed that Kuwait is a part of Iraq.
