The guy knew he didn't have any weapons of mass destruction

He refused inspections, he didn't want his enemies thinking he was weak or didn't have the weapons.

So he just held out, like a boss. He goes to Bush I don't give a fuck who you are, yo ain't inspecting shit!

Then America called his bluff, they removed him, but that destabilized the region to this day.
He was a good form of power in the region, that would beat, kill and pushed back the savages / people that would of unleashed hell on earth in their region if it were not for him and his heavy stick.

The region is still fked to this day......

Hopefully the Abraham peace accords will be the slow unification of tribes / nations, that was sorted due to Donald Trump

He was already weak after the 1991 War he was just too full of himself and his party, he's no strategist or diplomatic genius after the fall of the USSR he should have realized that to stay in power he needed to compromise and start rebuilding an economic power which Iraq can easily accomplish.

He was the big bully that never learns until another bigger bully teaches him a lesson.

One of the strangest plans in history for sure. He had WMDs, but either destroyed them per the treaty or gave/hid them in Iran. Why he didn't allow UN inspectors into Iraq when he was clean may indicate he was devoid of reality or just a megalomaniac. And while I'm not a fan of Bush, it wasn't just Bush that was wrong. When Bush gave the ultimatum to Saddam to allow inspectors or be attacked, the Europeans all said while he had WMD, they believed sanctions would be more appropriate. Pretty much the entire world believed he still had WMD.

Makes you wonder why Bill Clinton and the UN allowed him to kick out the nuclear power inspectors.

Or what happened to all the WMDs the US sold him.

Or why for 5 years he refused to let UN inspectors back in.

Well he’s dead now. Mission accomplished.

Yeah good questions, Sadam's royal family could of been a CIA front

I've heard they have done that to North Korea, as in the North Korean regime is backed by the CIA.
CIA takes a cut off the top, and they (CIA) provide cover via the CIA's briefings to the whatever president at the time

Trump getting elected broke that, and Kim couldn't of been happier meeting Trump, cause the Jong's family have been kept hostage / forced to play a charade to their people and the world for who knows how long. Its a way out for them
