Saddam Hussein

the United States then ended up fighting a war with Saddam Hussein over his policies when they once sided with him. Another issue such alliances with friendly dictatorships is that they do not work well in the long run. Saudi Arabia, Egypt and other Arab tyrannies may be long-standing allies of the US, but it…

Looting and widespread panic took place and the Kuwaiti government looked towards external sources for help. The U.S. President, George Bush, gave Saddam Hussein a deadline. On January 16, 1991, the Iraqi government did not withdraw their troops. As a result, the U.S. military forces moved into Saudi Arabia. Although Saddam did not feel intimidated, he launched many surface to surface missiles trying to deter the U.S. front. At the back of the United States’ military was a Patriot…

Saddam Hussein and his leadership never hesitated to use these weapons and it showed in past attacks on Iran from 1983-1988. In the wake of all of this The Department of Homeland Security was developed shortly following the Sept 11 attacks and their main job was the security of the country from within. It is also worth noting that the CIA and the FBI roles increased dramatically tracking down terrorist and personnel know to have ties with extremist cells. These attacks are morally and…

Although the Constitution guarantees many rights, the Constitution does not guarantee the right to individual privacy. Because the US is a technologically enhanced country, government officials and other organizations can “tap on” their peoples’ personal lives and conversations through telephone calls, emails, and many other modes of communication. While many people would disagree that wiretapping protects individual lives, wiretapping should be permitted because the average individual’s phone…

council for legal matters and security and also several councils for intelligence. Many studys and surveys have concluded that most of the members of ISIS are former military and intelligence officers of Iraq and Saddam Hussein’s government who lost their positions because the Saddam Hussein government was overthrown. The main locations of the ISIS group is in Syria and Iraq where they have conqured very vast areas. The main objective of ISIS group is to promote religious…

also started forming because of this war. First of all, Canada was right to refuse to participate in the war on Iraq for the reason that the war was based on lies. The first reason was that America had used a Spider Web intelligence. Saddam Hussein had been moved from power because it had said that he had used weapon of destruction and that it was built on air. The Spider Web Intelligence had also expanded in 2003 by the Chinese Citizens from increasing internet access. The second…

happened in Iraq due to these actions. The war on terror started out great. Supposedly killing Saddam Hussein and pulling down his statue ended the reign of terror that he brought upon the country. However, these actions were just the start of a long and treacherous road. Usually after the takeover of a tyrant, another power comes…

Months ago, Saddam Hussein promised his friends he would not invade Kuwait. Now, Iraq does not have any intention to leave. At twice we have seen what his promises mean. His promises mean nothing. The US, along with UK’s Prime Minister Thatcher and NATO Secretary General Woerner, agree that Iraq cannot be allowed to benefit from its invasion of Kuwait. Assuming that Iraq would not strike again would be unwise and unrealistic, seeing the history of aggression that has plagued the Hussein regime.…

jihadist group. His involvement with this group later made his name famous when the United States linked him to connection between Saddam Hussein and al Qaeda which was completely false. They were assuming Saddam Hussein was giving terrorist a safe haven within the borders of Iraq. With this in mind, the United States turned to Iraq and toppling the dictatorship of Saddam…

protect American security, both physically and economically. Unfortunately, the United States indirectly caused the rise in Islamic terrorism by siding with the mujahedeen against the Soviets in Afghanistan and by continuously fighting the secular Saddam Hussein in the 1990’s. Once Arab nationalism lost its appeal, the new way to be “free from the West” became Islamic fundamentalism. While the real national interest of American security remained unchanged throughout the Cold War and into the…
