Parting thoughts of Saddam, life and personality.

As now that Saddam Hussain is dead and in hiding, what do we know about this man?

The questions I would like to know is, did he speak English? What kind of father was he to Uday and Qusay? Did he love his wife, or did he ever beat her (his wife, also his cousin, is really a pretty woman).

I think Saddam Hussain was more stupid than evil. he had the backing of the United states until he invaded Kuwait in 1990. Even after this, I would of allowed weapons inspectors anywhere in my country, why? because I am rich, powerful and no one can internally can defeat or destroy me.

We know that Hussain was a grandfather. he loved to fish. He loved women. He loved scotch whiskey. He had three sons, by two different women. Uday was insane and mean as hell, he would of made a great Crip or Blood in south central. His other son was the smart, quiet one. They hated Israel with a passion.

IIRC in a NYT magazine article about Saddam it was said that he had his young sons watch filmed and live tortures and executions to “toughen them” up.
