Hussein, who was Sunni, wanted to murder Shiite Muslims because he feared their growing power in the south, and that they would revolt against him.

The Rulers hardly have any religion or Faith. Their Faith is Power. No Muslim (Sunni or Shia etc) is permitted by Allah Almighty to kill any Human being without a just cause. Killing an innocent human being (irrespective of his caste, creed, color, religion) is like killing the whole humanity. This is what Allah Almighty says in the Qur'an. Thus the Rulers kill for their Power, not religion.

How george bush can be christian by killing people all around the world?

There is a fine line between killing to protect one's country and murdering innocent lives. he never killed people ALL AROUND the world. He ordered the army to fight for that country's (Kuwait, refering to the Gulf War) freedom because those people (Saddam Hussein's army from Iraque) were going to take over that country and kill most of the people if they didn't follow him. Bush was saveing that country from evil.

Was Saddam Hussein ever on the CIA payroll?

He was sponsored by the CIA since 1959 and was given the task of killing the leader of Iraq at that time. he botched the killing but went on to kill thousands of his countrymen under the supervision of the CIA, It was OK then since he was killing communists and the US overlooked his actions. He became President in 1979 and the US gave him weapon's, ammunition and training but we wanted him to kill Iranians. In the Iraq and Iran War, there were 1.7 million people killed with the support of the US. Saddam only became a liability when he stared killing our other allies and then we deemed him an enemy.

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 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.

by Viet Vo I think Saddam Hussein killed people because he like to see people dying and did it for fun.

He was hanged around 2006 because he was found GUILTY and after his death, they made a statue of him as mormorial.

Well, honey, Saddam Hussein was responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people during his reign of terror in Iraq. The exact number is hard to pinpoint, but let's just say he had quite the impressive kill count. Let's just say he won't be winning any humanitarian awards anytime soon.
