Brother those who were responsible for the misery they had caused in your country will pay for their crimes on judgment Day

How was the car destroyed while you were inside, how did you survive? Did your family survive?

@@no-barknoonan1335 yes we survived, the destruction was mostly in the bannet . Luckily they didn't shoot because there were 3 soldiers surrounding our car with big guns pointing on us , some of them pulled the triggers also .. my mother asked me and sister to hide under the seats in case they shoot.. my mom , dad and the driver put their hands up.. then the last thing i felt was a big shake because i was closing my eyes it was something as if the car jumped .. honestly it is scarier than the way I am telling it

@@zainsaeed6459 I think my story is simple .. I wonder what happened to the people who really lived in Iraq

crime That's war

Heinous crime - not a mistake

Well the United States created that monster and they had to take that monster down and out!!

wat about afghanistan then..?

History doesn't have blank pages. It's all well documented

Hopefully something good will come out of the US global crimes by hastening it's decline

It's so fun to listen to Americans complaining about gas prices. Here in the oil nation of Norway we pay about 15 $US each LITER. Both gasoline and diesel.

They didnt risk their lives for gas but it was for power and control. It's the same exact reason why they are picking a fight with China and Russia. In 2000 they couldn't decide who to pick a fight with between Islam and China, they pick a fight with both but China was too determined to resist and fight back so they settled down with fighting with Islam.

Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a publick example, was minded to put her away privily. But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of The Holy Ghost. And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins. Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us. Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife: And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS.« (Gospel of Matthew - Chapter 1)

He'll, go back to 1945, when Adolph Hitler was smuggled out of Berlin, Germany, onto a U-BOAT, TO South America; ARGENTINA.

​@karimhicks8376 Never happened, Adolph died in Berlin, no one besides fringe conspiracy theorists dispute that

You’re only powerful as long as you have a military force to hold your power. The Iraqi army controlled by Saddam fell quickly and Baghdad was captured around three weeks into the invasion. And he wasn’t really a popular guy, he was a brutal dictator that controlled Iraq with an iron fist. He didn’t have widespread support and friends to protect him like a Bin Laden did where he lived seemingly comfortably for a lot of the time he was in hiding.

Because he was a scumbag, not that complicated

Vragi ne dremlyut ! Amerika edinayvennaya strana kto seet suetu, smutu , ublyudstvo, nu I verhushka politiki pidorazy I ublyudki , v kotoryh nichego horoshego!!!

plenty of embarrassment tho

idk if it’s just me but their smiles. It’s disgusting

Why you are not satisfied.! 😊

With hindsight it is easy to judge I think. But the normal, Iraqi "Average Ali" I think was happy to get rid of Saddam, but not so much Al-Quada and ISIS.

You should not be satisfied but proud, sadam gassed and invaded Kuwait and Qatar trying to control the oil supply of the Middle East

All in the name of Bush.

WMD

@@franciscoburgos787 Yeah, as well as Cheney and the late Rumsfeld and Powell

Saddam was a stand up guy 😂

You’re right, in describing it as a pointless war. But kid your deserved to have that laugh at 8. He was a brutal individual and seeing him die was one of the few things I’ve experienced in life that gave hope there might be justice for the powerful after all.

Always #treyarch

and jews be laughing at americlowns like everyone else

an they try to make Putin a criminal

Bush and Netanyahu put this disaster in motion.

@@federalreservebrown2507 Netanyahu sat in front of Congress and openly lobbied for the invasion. He said “Iraq would be the right ChOiCe” when talking about invasion/war. Bush and Netanyahu should be jailed

It was useless and unnecessary............

Sorry brother, for your loss. I am an African woman and we continue to suffer from useless wars so a few rich people can wear diamonds and other exclusive stones.

I am trying to figure out what was his crime, that they hung him in such hurry.

He used chemical weapons against his own people, he tortured and killed millions, lit over 700 oil wells on fire which caused an environmental disaster, and many other horrific crimes. He also plotted the hit on President George Bush, senior.

WTF!!! do you actually believe what you are saying or are you being sarcastic?

@@sareeyemanusqaame8723 what's wrong?

well actually US was not trying to fix anything, they were just making business

​@@matias.avenali I wouldn't call Killing ,raping,and stealing "business " , its called a warcrime.

America ain't perfect but life is good if you live right. I used to be in a gang and I hate the law. But what America stands for is a good life for everyone. If you choose to break the law you deal with the consequences. It's not America it's the whole worlds thats the problem truthfully. Greed is all the world knows. Profit profit. Only when the people unite worldwide to start fresh will there be peace. And that will probably never happen. To many judgements in each other's eye.

They had 250 thousand American soldier killers there

And they never had democracy.

What did you expect to happen in a war, and that was their country.

A lot more than 1000

I’m an Iraqi citizen,and 80 percent of the Iraqi people are better off today than under Saddam’s regime

he was innocent

Nothing? He brutally attacked & invaded Kuwait and doubled down on the invasion when he was giving a chance to withdraw his troops but other neighboring nations. Not only that but he literally threatened to invade those neighboring nations too.

Imagine you lived in Iraq during his regime, and you are saying that! You are saying that because you didn't live there for one day. Watching TV Reports/News and comments, something is different when you have lived there almost your whole life, and you are saying something.

how is the country now since 2003 any different? just asking @@zorro1906

Bad as them? How did Iraqis threatened your so called national security? The US is a terrorist state

What was bad about “them”? What did they do to you?

He killed thousands of people and did it for no reason so how is hanging him making them bad people. Not defending them or saying they aren’t bad but this is not what makes them bad because he deserved it

It was wack seeing it early childhood

Was he doing the fentanyl crawl? If so it might be him.

dude 9-11 was a set up

No sir youdid not ramble your statement was very well put

funny. when I grew up, I grew out of conspiracies and saw that War normally has a cause. Its easy to blame the US for being the bigger power, but that hides the reality of how much evil there is in the world, terrorism, regimes, beheadings, people killing civilians. why do we just focus on the civilian count when the US enters?

saddam is the bad guy ? think again .. he didn't start the war

Significant changes indeed took place, particularly in northern Iraq, now recognized as the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG). The Kurdish population achieved linguistic and cultural freedom, liberating themselves from the clutches of a dictator who sought to perpetrate genocide. Since then, the region has transformed into the most secure area in the Middle East, serving as a refuge for individuals of diverse religions and ethnicities. Moreover, it has emerged as a steadfast ally of the United States, playing a crucial role in rescuing Iraq from the threat of ISIS.

Typical western hypocrisy to justify the theft of the lands, oil etc..

Oil right dude

Rip suddam went up against a racist country something blk people should have been done

It is America Its leaders want to be supreme and be judge in the whole world !!!

@@natsalta CORRECT! As we have always done!

So sleeping with the enemy,traitor

lot of soldiers can say this because theyre just that, foot soldiers. its easy to undermine the situation when all you know more about is the face situation and not the picture as a whole. To ask every soldier for their political insight is kind of silly. The battle scars are one thing, but the understanding why soldiers are moved are under another supervision. To a soldier 1 death doesnt justify 100. But in war, 1 death is just a cost in the battle plan. So, its always sad to hear so many soldiers dislike war and their experience, but lets not forget the cause and enemy, plus all the aid that resulted because of soldiers.

“Mistake” it was a terrorist OP perpetrated under false pretext of WMD. Killed a million! A MILLION! every OP is a lie in its history. EVERYONE! Every retaliation is in defence of their terrorism & war crimes and the avg sleeping American buys it because Arab blood is cheap, as long as they get to sleep better even if they know it’s fabricated. If there is an afterlife for any Americans complicit in it they can expect their reward there. Their silence today when they know by now what their government is capable of cost too many lives and their countries foreign policies is costing lives continuing till today. It is a duty on American people to stand up because it cost the taxpayer at the end of the day and even their soldiers and their families innocently thinking they are fighting the boogey man.

Traitor

You are a traitor. Shame on you.

Rubbish! Why should I ever support America as Police of the world?

@Aliyu Saidu medugu you are rubbish . Eat sand and bomb.. the people like you keep thinking bad never be up on the life

@@aliyusaidumedugu520 We know that the old great empires also failed!

Not really

The vast majority of Iraqis were rejoicing at this time to. It's disgusting how much history is being distorted. Saddam was basically universally understood as the Kim Jung Un of his time, and the people only learned to like him after things got really bad in Iraq, which was in 2006 - 2007.

​@@Dennis-nc3vw, the US supported Saddam against Iran. Please learn about that...and leave North Korea alone. The US have destroyed many countries in the name of democracy, which by the way the US is failing to implement back home

​@@MusehanaHthey dont care. Not caring is kind of their whole thing.

​@@sparkycarvery really

The said some Yellow Cake uranium from the coast of Africa. And all of Sadams Weapons os Mass Destruction. Biological and chemical weapons. But non of that existed. U.S. GOVERNMENT ALL LIES! Later in custody he told the truth he faked having W.M.D.s because he wanted Iran to think he had them. To prevent Iran from trying to start war. So many troops killed and money wasted fo LIES? Vice President Cheyneys X company ansd lots of companies made UNIMAGINABLE MONEY. Same in Afghanistan.

Saddam should have nuclear it's evident know he should have, now Iran should have nuclear to deter US aggression

he invaded Kuwait, killed millions of kuwaiti & burned their oil well.usa served him right.

No, instead it is described as 'a fall' at the end of the report.

Wrong. Instead back when America changed for the worst. China rose for the better.

By this point, it was well under way.

That change started approximately two thousand years ago.

Previously he was in Iraq. Education is free, treatment is free, every Iraqi family gets 12 foodstuffs for free. Iraq was drug-free. The Iraqi army was classified as one of the best armies in the Middle East. Every citizen had a salary of at least $4,000, in addition to developing the educational system and supporting farmers. America killed more than 1,000,000 Iraqis, tortured more than 60,000 Iraqis, and used chemical weapons against the city of Fallujah in 2004. The American company stole Iraqi antiquities, in addition to the crimes of the government that America made in Iraq. During eight years, America committed more crimes than all the crimes it committed. Saddam Hussein for 35 years

You had no right in that country and I condemn killing of another human aslong as its self defence.
