So you (and everyone else) say.....

But, if you look at the scoreboard at the end of the day........

I like how Morty calls him a psycho! All of these 3rd world dictators are corrupt, sh!t eating scum who will do what they have to do to benefit them most.

I think it isn't as hard as you think to think like them.

Maybe within their own country.
He was very good at terrorizing
everyone around him and the entire
population.

But the man had not a clue as to
how other countries would react to
his little ventures outside Iraq.

He surrounded himself with YES men
and then in his own bizarre way got
his country into so many problems
before the annhilation. So many times
he made huge errors in judgement concerning
foreign affairs.

Sorry for the overreaction.

Duh!!!!

Which is why he would mis-calculate about us invading Iraq.

You are doing a better job of supporting my position (which I told Indian Charlie about before the war - and has since proven true) than you are dispelling it.

You posted put yourself in his shoes and use
common sense
. I dont see how one can do that.
We had no idea what he thought.

If you think that is making your point...

It's very simple.

He couldn't have possibly believed the US would invade....so he couldn't tip his hand to all the threats in his region how vulnerable he was.

If you can only learn to think like a corrupt, 3rd world, sh!t eating dictator you'd see how obvious this was.

Why could he not possibly believe?
He got invaded in 1990?
We TOLD him we were going to invade...

I dont get the reasoning at all.

And just dont get how you know
what he believed and did not believe.
For all we know, he knew we would invade
and knew we would get into a quagmire and
never find him.

Playing the hindsight game is too easy
and done far too often.
