Saddam Hussein protected Assyrian Christians from Islamists. After destroyed Saddam, Christians in Iraq that had been there for 2000 years were systematically exterminated. Christianity is now extinct in Iraq
“Systematically exterminated” by whom troll?
Systematically exterminated by Saddam’s dispossessed Sunni Ba’athists, aka AIQ, aka ISIS. The Sunnis who were trained, supplied and advised by the KGB/Russia along with KGB/Syria.
Kinda overlooking the half million Shia KGB/Saddam murdered prior to 2003, the Kurds up north and the KGB-sponsored chemical weapons programs which KGB/Saddam’s cousin, Ali Hassan al-Majid (Chemical Ali) used to gas and kill 5000 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halabja_massacre
In 40 years did KGB/Saddam bring elections to Iraq? A representative republic? Whereas it took the US, Coalition and Iraqis less than 5 years to do it. So a representative, pluralistic republic was never KGB/Saddam and Ba’athists objective. So don’t take credit for what the US, Coalition and Iraqi republicans did - which Russia, the KGB and their fought against. TROLL!
