I wonder if Saddam was planning a contingency plan for the our 2000 election?
One for Push Over Gore and the other for Butt Bashing Bush.
The Clinton Administration never supported a real regime change because they were too chicken. They just gave a lot of lip service and lobbed bombs during the decades of the 90’s.
Arabs were really disappointed with Clinton Administration because we couldn’t be counted on. Right after the 1996 coup the sanctions were losing its hold and Saddam was oozing out of his containment box.
They weren’t the brave matadors. They lost their nerve at the last stage to commit “tercio de muerte” to kill the beast.
This is what Big Macho Man Gore said this....
“The United States will not flag in supporting your efforts to promote a change of regime. I believe that there can be no peace for the Iraqi people and a genuine peace for the people of the Middle East so long as Saddam is in a position to brutalise his people and threaten his neighbours,” Gore told the representatives of the Iraqi National Congress (INC), an American-backed group seeking to overthrow Saddam. “In the interests of regional peace and for the sake of human decency, [Saddam] must be removed from power. That is the policy of this administration. It is the policy I support. It is the policy I am personally committed to,” he added.”

Blaa....blaaa...blaa..blaa....bla and zzzzzzzzzzzzz
That’s what the Arabs thought.
Remember we never heard about the failing sanctions against Saddam. We never knew Saddam was rebuilding his power base back up.
I didn’t get FoxNews then. We had Main Stream Media.
According to Madeline Albright everything in Iraq was a smashing success.
Yep.
