Saddam Hussein was the fifth President of Iraq, serving from July 16, 1979, until his ousting in 2003. He was known for his authoritarian regime, marked by widespread human rights abuses and the use of chemical weapons against civilians, particularly during the Iran-Iraq War and the Gulf War. Hussein's rule ended following the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq in 2003, leading to his capture, trial, and execution in 2006 for crimes against humanity. His legacy remains controversial, influencing regional politics and the discourse around Dictatorship and governance in the Middle East.
