Hello Viewers,

Who Really Built Saddam ?

The West made Saddam Hussain. The soviet arms mill defence. But, by
handing him everything from chemical weapons to ballistic missiles and
the makings of a nuclear bomb, America and Europe transformed a two-
bit dictator into a world class threat.

Some goods from Europe fell into Saddam's hands as customs officials
slept at the switch. Other European goods were supplied with a nod and
a wink by nations hungry for Iraqi oil or greedy for trade.
The US government is equally responsible. It deliberately traded with
Saddam so that Iraq would not lose its war against Iran. America did
not want the Ayatollah Khoemeini's fundamentalist Islamic government
to dominate West Asia.
In addition, American trade officials, dazzled by the business
Europeans were doing, assiduously sought Iraqi commerce. And State
Department specialists - from the height of their "expertise" in Arab
culture - mistakenly declared Saddam "a force for moderation" who
could be "worked with."
Here is a shocking account of a decade of appeasement.
