Wow. I thought this was common knowledge.

The US did, indeed, support Saddam. The US helped him get to power and helped Iraq during the Iran-Iraq war. Iraq was, for a time under Reagan with Donald Rumsfeld (yes, that Rumsfeld) as an emissary, the third largest recipient of US assistance on earth.

The first Bush doubled US assistance to Iraq and, apparently, purposefully ignored Iraq as it obviously planned to invade Kuwait.

"For six days work may be done, but on the seventh day you shall have a holy day, a sabbath of complete rest to the LORD; whoever does any work on it shall be put to death."

the US did help put Saddam in power
thats not conspiracy theory, thats just fact.

how many coincidences does it take to second guess logic and probability.

if there are enough variables, at some point the probability of a coincidence actually occurring is astronomical. until you've actually set aside all the facts and set them into an equation, nobody has has the right to claim they have basis in math or science.

i would do it, but i don't really have any doubts ( or a real knowledge of mathematics for that matter)...
