So I'm watching the sadaam shit the other night and msnbc had the ultimate retrospective about him and his rise to power and all the rest of the shit he's done. After he invaded Iran and kept that war going for 8 years and basically making them ask for a cease fire when it became apparent he wasn't going to do it, he was treated like a fucking hero by that country and thought he could get away with whatever he wanted, hence invading kuwait a couple of years later.
Also something I found fascinating was they did an interview with Bush sr. about the original war and he said they didn't want to stay too long because they didn't want to get bogged down in a lengthy conflict that they had no exit strategy for so they did what they did and then got out quick. Also as for going after sadaam he said they thought about it but at no time, did they actually have a fucking clue where he was.
