>>>>>>Was that why he favored leaving Saddam in Kuwait after Saddam took that country?
Because he foresaw that Iraq was needed to counterbalance Iran, and the destruction of Iraq would merely embolden Iran. Which, of course, it has.

So Saddam needed to stay in Kuwait? Wow, you're way out there. Maybe you're trying to make the case for keeping Saddam in power and don't remember Saddam's invasion of Kuwait. And did you support Saddam's missile attacks on Israel too and his public support for and paying of suicide bombers who killed civilians there?
