saddam what i meant to say. saddam wasn't entirely cooperating, but nothing was coming up. they weren't finding any actual weapons. and that was used as evidence that he actually was hiding something rather than give us some pause, maybe we should wait a little bit longer. so when you say that, you know, the president didn't rush to war, he is accused of rushing in those final weeks instead of allowing the full inspection regime to play out as if saddam is about to prove us wrong. he actually doesn't have these weapons. your response to that? well, one can argue that, and that is an argument often made and one can legitimately say that legitimately say that in february and march of 2003, there was a rush to war. that's different than saying in september of 2001, there was a a rush to war timeline. but it but even in what's important to know is that in january and february 2003, as the inspectors was engaged in their investigations inside iraq, as as you suggested, and they were not finding evidence of of of the of the weapons. nonetheless, none the less, the chief of the in

wasn't prepared to let saddam have a get out of jail free card . and he went in and removed the regime. >> talk about that decision-making, the i think you rightly say that all of these things are much more complex than the narrative would ever give credence to. but talk about who was there, if you ask me based on what i've read alone these years, i would say that there was a small cup all and i use that word intentionally of people, the vice president who was on our board. and paul wolfowitz who used to be one of our colleagues and series of small group of others who were agitating. who made the case aggressively and brought the president around. what actually happened? >> they were certainly agitatingfor it . i'm not sure if they brought the president around or the president came around. to the thinking i just described. there had been an effort by that come all if you will to say right after 9/11 that it was a global war on terror we should just go after the taliban in afghanistan so if we get outside in which they were protecting we shouldalso

the administration said that saddam's ambassador to khaki -- saddam's abbasid or to turkey had gone to meet -- saddam's ambassador to turkey -- an agent that belonged to the bin laden camp, bin laden had said after the meeting that they would not do that because it would become his agenda and not ours. that is an example of the cherry picking that was done with the information. i will wrap up quickly by saying that other news organizations could have done what we did, we did know is him. our guiding rule was if the government says something, we need to ask one question. is it true? that's a line in the movie by the way. also, the fact that we got into this in the way that we did was because night ritter which was the second largest newspaper company in the united states, 30 newspapers. those newspapers were not in los angeles, new york or washington. but my editor john walcott said, we do not write for people who send other americans families to war. we write for the families whose children get sent to war. and whose husbands get sent to war, whose uncles and aunt's consent toward. tho

saddam hussein is the children of the president who attacked iraq before. now saddam is here. these children are walking without knowing it . the plans are about the americans to their secret base in saudi arabia. they have brought this special fighter . these birds become the end of days for saddam he won't accept it, but he doesn't know anything about the presence of american f-117s. the nomads who support him have gone to trample him . the screw of their electronic warfare system is disabled, the american phantoms of iran could not do this trick easily through the window, but that trump card , which america and saddam do not know , has been secretly conducting test flights from america's secret bases in saudi arabia for several days. the planes they want change the record in the world and iraq will not be alone against this bomb. saddam will run out of worksheets . 117 this pseudo black man will give his first serious test here, the land of mesopotamia, iraq will finally leave saudi arabia on the night of muharram at 22:00 f117. saddam is here in now the speech to the high-

kuwait is the most important investor of saddam's war for iran. caller had made a mistake in the calculations that the united states and the west would keep silent in front of the attack. the american president immediately reacted and disbelieved. hossein amiri vykok andy and pictures and writings of portal.sru hospital in the city of egypt. from these moments, a limited war between america and iraq over kuwait began, which eventually led to a complete embargo on iraq, so much so that saddam was forced to destroy all of iran's missiles and leave only one the father-in-law's single facility should be announced to the west saddam has done all the things that the atomic agency had done to fire him and he has no idea that the new american president is going to attack him once without the approval of the united nations. president hussein is the son of the president who attacked iraq before and this the children walk without knowing that the programs about the americans have brought this special fighter to their secret base in saudi arabia, and these bi

in the fight against saddam. iran should it took a battle to be able to face the power of the united states of america from the first american attack on iraq in 1369, iran understood that if another war is going to happen in the west asian region , it will not be between two neighbors. the days of proxy wars are over and this time the superpower will attack the countries itself . afghanistan will fall. this is an indication of the same situation these days, american tv channels broadcast these images a lot, showing the power of america in occupying any country it wants, especially from these propaganda images, these are chairs from the 1000 cruise missiles that america has launched into iraq, the territory of iraq is not vast. if a thousand rockets are removed from the system iraqi radars have escaped and hit the targets. why can iran be occupied with this method ? how does it do the work on the ground? the air defense has the same responsibility in the sky . the air defense is one unit, one is a 24-hour force .

today marks 20 years since the fall of the regime of the late iraqi president saddam hussein.003, then us president george w bush launched operation "iraqi freedom" with a ground invasion by thousands of us and british troops, under the pretext of destroying iraq's alleged arsenal of weapons of mass destruction. having ruled iraq with an iron fist since 1979, saddam went to ground until his hiding place was discovered by us troops eight months afterwards. he was later tried, convicted and hanged on the morning of december 30, 2006. i've been talking to balsam mustafa a reseach fellow at warwick university about life in baghdad during saddam hussein's rule. living under the dictatorship was very hard, and before the invasion also there was a wave of wars and conflicts, and also the economic sanctions. we were living through hardships and it felt like we were living in a big prison, and we were longing, or many of us were longing, to see saddam hussein's rule and the ba'athist regime come to an end one day, but we would never think at that moment that what would follow would be

on one hand i wanted saddam hussein to be gone.after one year of being set up in baghdad was something that was really hard to comprehend. i was happy to see him gone, but at the same time this was led by us troops and allies. it was not at the hands of iraqis, but the hand of invaders. however, there was a sentiment of optimism and hope for a better future. but unfortunately, that did not last very long and the feelings, the feelings of... there was a moment of tranquillity on that day in particular, when the war was over and we realised the far—fetched idea of 35 years of dictatorship finally came to an end, there was a moment of calmness and peace, but this did not last very long and the shift that we felt occurred later gradually, but also quickly and the first stage was the toppling of the statue by the us troops. then the us troops' failure to protect iraqi institutions, except for the ministry of oil. but all other institutions, including universities and the university i studied in was left unprotected and there was a lot o
