Tikrit: 20 years since the US invasion, what has become of Saddam Hussein’s birthplace? • FRANCE 24 

And the USA helped them

@@joeanthony8087 No

@@gamedayswede yes Obama bombed Libya in 2011 what rock were you under

​@@joeanthony8087 it's true, and multiples Franch soldiers took places in the first invassion in 2011

Iraq’s democracy is very unstable. Their version of the parliamentary system does not answer to the people, particularly the protection of the minority Sunni. There are still a lot of scars from the Iran/Iraq war, the Iraqi Civil War from 20 years ago, then of course IS takeover of the region. Both sides have shed much blood over the past 40 years. i’m not even talking about the historical context of Ali and that the Shia believe he was martyred by the Sunnis. Democracies are all very unstable in the beginning, I believe in Iraq’s case that is even more true. I would not call it crimes, Iraq is particularly complex with the strange bureaucracy of the popular mobilization forces and the fact that nobody really wants to help them, crime is a little bit extreme.

It's called hypocrisy.

do as i say not as i do

They kill those people for demokracy,you dont understand

@@specter7-1977 That's not what he is talking about!

Tony bears quite the responsibility but I think Dobbaya, Chaney and Karl Rowe are the OG bad guys in this story. Haliburton execs also. A group of people from here took out a full-page ad in the NY times to make it known to the world that this was not done with the acceptance of the Icelandic nation.

The town was a hotspot for isis.

Why dont try saying that to the thousands of innocent people in iraq who had to see their family blown up. Their family members raped/tortured. Their businesses destroyed. Their houses bombed. It's very easy to say that from the comfort of your home.

You are wrong about one thing every one is not equal. Some have more brain power than others. Modern science has proven this as well look at it yourself some people just cannot be a Doctor or a Lawyer, some will never make it past just a tunnel vision only job for their minds are different for numerous reasons. I hate it when i hear someone say all people are equal. We are not. If I was equal to Presidents of America I would be rich but my pea bit of a brain bogs down when memory and comprehension comes into play. So a poor man I have been and a poor man I am.

I’m sure if you asked the people you would be surprised, these people are highly intelligent people far more than us in my western opinion

What’s even more dangerous is it goes on unchecked or questioned..Surely if your going to police the world you have to lead by example and clean up ur own backyard first..

@@Roscoe.P.Coldchain Agree

Which is why France didn't participate in 2003 invasion of Iraq.

@@azmicaseer8584 Did France invaded Libya directly?

Lies is because of dollars and hagemoneny

@Aqeel mahmood No one told him to invade Kuwait. He made that decision himself and provided historical reasons.

Exactly, they overproduced oil and petroleum to hurt and cripple our economy. Saddam talked to the gulf diplomatically and asked them many times to stop and why they're doing this, they still proceeded. What else can he do??

@@esbenm6544 ?

@Larry Bimak that is bs us invasion was bad but that dosent makes saddam innocent he was a bloodthirsty tyrant

It is even to most Americans. Most of us recognize that as a fact. It isn't a crime to the richest 1% who rule the USA along with the military industrial complex. It's a shame and it' was senseless.

@@daddy1571 what does it have to do with richest 1%?

@@edwin_thomas_c_r LMAO! Educate yourself. I'm not going to.

Its not a crime because "the crime occurred to Sunni Muslims" that's why its not a crime in the eyes of a shia!

​@Daddy it's so lazy to make an irrelevant claim and then refuse to give context. You said it so back it up

Alot more eu countries,

​@@kaulumapaulus9234Main invading forces USA ,UK ,KSA Egypt , ah yea KSA and Egypt somehow forgoten to be mentioned

They all followed US leadership , none country would dare intervene without Daddy US

I mentioned those who have sent soldiers on ground

EU is the slave of the US. The EU cannot think for itself. It follow sheepishly wherever the US goes.

No. Just like there wasn't when Saddam invaded Iran or when he invaded Kuwait.

@@esbenm6544 You’re comparing Kuwait and Iran invasion to Iraq 😂

Satan's kid's strong

FRANCE sold a lot of WEAPONS to SADDAM, a point they CONVENIENTLY MISSED.

What NATO? LOL you don't read history. Not all NATO countries participated in the invasion of Iraq 2003. France & Turkey being notable example.

Which world, dictators and their slaves?

It's not America's fault that Iraqi people couldn't come together after the death of Saddam and build something great. They had the chance but they blew it due tribalism.

Aaah yes it were Americans that toppled his statues, it were Americans that paraded in the streets after the death of the Dictator. It were Americans that formed ISIS and made slave markets in Raqqa. A dumb backwashed religious people blaming all their problems on America because thats easy, actually evolving is hard.

​@@Etendard1708 France was busy looting from West Africa. Over 500 billion dollars a year. That's excluding all the money made from.selling weapons and exploiting the natural resources of West Africa.

Saddam GASSING KURDS and using WMD against IRAN & his INVASION of KUWAIT were FACTS , Brainwashed Troll.

The WMD is real, its just hidden in the desert and all that know where they are was killed by Iraqi regime.

💛💙❤

@Iddo Balcha no is thanks to your ignorant mentality.

Iraq has potential like other rich Oil neighbors but fails to be.seems like only dictators can help Arabs to be something...

He was a criminal, as are you.

@user-ov6px2ky5l he was criminal? So Where is Iraq now?

there were oil, no weapons' the Americans are like flies to a honey. colonizers and invaders professional thief's too

There were never. Any ....One day US will reap what they sow

​@@mthokozisicele7067 They will continue to inflict damage and dominate the world with their futuristic weapons more likely. You can wish all you want but so did all the other people from places the US annihilated. What about Japan? Two atomic bombs and what? Nothing!

they will be judged well not a atom worth will be left even for the atom worth they will be punished. today America and the whole nato can join hands and destroy but on that day they will beg for mercy. but there wont be, there wealth kids there status wont make any difference. that day is the day when the king of kings will be the judge. the one who created you, ALLAH. the perfect judgement and the perfect punishment is on to america and nato also the rest who did what they did to us.

"liberated" in this context is purely a matter of perspective

What scripture have you been reading? It's mostly about killing and despite what believers claim, it is highly ambivalent about it.

The villages got burned because they joined isis.

@@fogshadow9112 LOL Every Sunni in Iraq is eliminated by simply saying " they joined ISIS" NOP just a pretext and a False Narrative. You cannot simply burn villages by saying they joined ISIS.

@@ebnhahn1993 Are you Iraqi? Have you been in Iraq? Why are you trying to bs about my own country? Go search up camp speicher massacre. Some of the tirbes of tikrit massacred fleeing Iraqi trainees in cold blood after promising them free passage. How do you figure the army free these towns from isis. I guess by throwing roses and blowing kisses. These towns and cities were only going get liberated by battles. The airstirkes on these towns and cities was done by the US led coalition. Innocent people who isis used as human shield were killed. Isis is not sunni. Isis is salafi wahabi ideology. Never mix up the two. It is very dangerous.

​@Fight authority Remember Your Father Saddam Hussein

@Fight authority yes I also have nothing to do with that tyrant bush 🤣

@Fight authority ofc bush tyrant but I'm saying remember your father Saddam Hussein

He was a pan Arabist. As for Kuwait, the invasion was result of Kuwaiti stealing of Iraqi oil for years and the Kuwaiti authority didn't agree to compensate in multiple meetings. Then Saddam decided invaded.He did pushed arabism over Kurds for sure.But your remark regarding Kuwait isn't correct

Iraq was always and will always be hopeless. The people are born doomed just like in Afghanistan.

No, they should be praised.

Tikrit

No our future is in its own iran hand Iran is take over iraq All iraqis whatever Sunni Shia or Christian are now suffering from Iranian militias

No they won't. And if they do, it's their fault.

Because no one executed clint eastwood.
