Life in Iraq under Saddam

thecavemaster Wrote:So, are you suggesting that Iraq, 25 million people, miniscule defense spending compared to USA, no capacity to defend a WMD attack from USA, would initiate a "fight to the death" with America? Sadaam wanted to be King of the Middle East, which is hard to do in the radioactive heat of a nuclear retaliatory strike. In the end, Sadaam died anyway... but his ego was the biggest WMD in his arsenal.

Who's to say that he wouldn't have attacked the rest of the Middle East, gotten power then, and found someone who knew how to make WMD in one of the countries he took over (I believe Iran had a very good chance, if they haven't already)?
