Let those who try to assess the losses of the region due to the method and madness of Iraqi President Saddam Hussein listen carefully. There is no doubt that his ambition is the main reason for most of the problems in the northeastern part of the Middle East.
Evil is simple.
I believe that this is a problem that cannot be underestimated, and I believe it is possible, even mandatory, to root out this problem once and for all. Let opinion-formers who try to exonerate Saddam and project the United States as a loving superpower just take a good look at the man and his machinery. It reminds me of the talks several Saudi journalists had with four Western ambassadors in Yemen. One of the ambassadors asked whether Saudi Arabia had exerted any effort to end the conflict between Yemen and Eritrea over the Hanish Islands. The envoy left the question unanswered.
