Reply to comment by sds0918 in Iraq: The Lost Generation (2008) - In the past five years (2003-2008) more than four million Iraqis – 20 per cent of the entire population – have been driven from their homes as a result of the war and sectarian bloodshed. Two million have become exiles living desperate lives. [00:50:11] by Missing_Trillions

Iraq would have been better off without saddam in general.

But I’m 100% happy he is gone, considering he killed several of my family members as well as torture my father to the point of needing neurosurgery years after.

Considering the million of people dead or tortured over the years, he should never have been put into power by western nations in the first place. Iraq has been messed around with several times, but they’re 100% in a bette place now then with saddam. Let’s just hope western nations stay out of the middle east and don’t repeat their mistakes.

The US brought saddam to power. Gave him the gas he used on the kurds because it was leftovers from what he used against iranians.
