Saddam Hussein

THE PERSIAN GULF WAR OF 1990-1991 began after Saddam Hussein led an Iraqi invasion of Kuwait.

There were two completely unrelated reasons for these events. It just so happened that both effective power changes occurred in 1979.

The Shah of Iran declined in power because his dictatorial methods of directing the country along with his strong secularist bent alienated many different groups in the country from the Communists, to the Feminists, to the Democracy Advocates, to the Islamists, to the General Clergy, to the Poorer Classes, etc. These groups eventually protested to the point where the Shah of Iran fell. The Islamists took the lead in post-Shah Iran.

Saddam Hussein rose because he was well-connected in the Ba'ath Party. In a military coup in 1968, later called the 17 July Revolution, General Ahmed Hassan Al-Bakr and the Ba'ath Party regained power. In the coup's aftermath, al-Bakr was elected Chairman of the Revolutionary Command Council and President; he was later appointed Prime Minister. Saddam Hussein, who was the Ba'ath Party's deputy at the time, became Deputy Chairman of the Revolutionary Command Council and Vice President, and was responsible for Iraq's security services. As Al-Bakr got older and more senile, Saddam Hussein became the de facto leader of Iraq, especially in the late 1970s. By 1979, Al-Bakr died and Saddam Hussein naturally became his successor.

I don't own one. Doubtful one is worth anything. Unless it is an original and painted by an artist of note, it won't have much value.

Saddam Hussein killed many people for no reason . He also created genocide between the Kurds !

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.

Saddam Hussein may at one time have had ambitions to have nuclear weapons, but he never had them. By the time he was ousted he had no significant chemical weapons. He did have a supergun designed by Gerald Bull.

Both are dead. Saddam Hussein was executed December 30, 2006, and Osama bin Laden was shot May 1, 2011.

A Muslim woman wears hijab for the simple reason that God has commanded it in the Quran and Sunna. As Muslims we make the testimony "Muhammad is the messenger of God". The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) would not be a messenger if he did not come with a message, and his message is the Quran. Therefore, we are really saying "The Quran is the message of God". Our faith in God motivates us to obey God's message and that is why we follow what God has commanded in the Quran.

That is the explanation.

Saddam probably killed a small number of people with his own hands, i.e. around a dozen or so. However, he was responsible for numerous genocides around Iraq which resulted in around 200,000 deaths, he was responsible for the Iran-Iraq War, which claimed the lives of over a 1,000,000 people, he was responsible for the invasion of Kuwait all lives lost in that conflict, etc.

Yes its true American Express do business with a Billionaire Yemeni man Called Shaher Abdulhak who provide his bank The International Bank of Yemen with their credit card services.

This man played a key role in illicit weapons sales to the Iraqi dictatorship, according to a CIA report "The Procurement of Conventional Military Goods in Breach of UN Sanctions".

The report states that "Yemen has assisted the Iraqi armed forces through a Yemeni businessman called Shaher Abid Al Haqq (Shaher Abdulhak, the spelling of the name varies.)."

Reference is given to a meeting held 19 February 2001, were the Yemeni side was ready to export military materials from Yemen and Ethiopia to Iraq. These parts were specifically drawn from the stocks of the Yemeni armed forces, air force, army aviation and included armor, trucks, and weapons.

Shaher Abdulhak is also known for being the father of Farouk Abdulhak who is the only suspect of the murder of a Norwegian student Martine Vik Magnussen in London March 2008.

Farouk Abdulhak fled the UK hours after Martines death,and is believed to be living in Yemen where it is strongly suspected that he is being sheltered by his wealthy father.

No. When operation Desert Storm concluded in 1991, Hussein was still in power. He remained Iraq's leader until shortly after the U.S. invasion of Iraq in 2003.

It is almost unanimously agreed that Saddam Hussein Is bad person. a paranoid tyrant who was insensitive to human life and international convention. It would be a great challenge to think of something good to say about him.

Paul Bremer did restore the decree of disarming Iraqi.

The decree was issued in May, I don't remember the number.

Last year it was so easy to find lots of websites with details such as the date in which the Iraqi Parliament passed the law and the date on which Paul Bremer issued his own.

Nowadays everybody talks about What happened but nobody speaks neither "When" nor "How".

launched an invasion of Kuwait

This is not really a question.

Yes

No, that is a myth spread by Led Zeppelin haters. Saddam Hussein never listened to Led Zeppelin.
