The economy

[Maggot]

Saddam was in the process of buying radioactive isotopes from Africa supplied by I am guessing here the U.S.S.R. I kinda wish that Iraq and Iran could have been drawn into a war against each other through subversivness. But Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Israel were part of the United States "inner circle" and all indications of Iraqs gleanings were shown in Kuwait. The processing of oil was preserved and the crude oil was not an issue. Iran was becoming more westernized at the time and has since done a reversal. They now need their ass kicked. But Iraq, with the money and power they had would have achieved nuclear capabilities by now if they had not been stepped on. Iran has had a free ride for quite a few years now and are laughing at Iraq the "Jewell of the middle east" today. Iraq is ready for fleecing in their eyes. I see them trying to take it as soon as we are gone. From within in the beginning but militarily in the end. The war in Iraq only put off the inevitable.
