Name a few terror incidents on US soil linked to Saddam.
I never saw any such news items. But since I do not read or view every piece of news, please post a few news items of such terror incidents on US soil linked to Saddam.
Since Saddam was fighting a 10 year war with Iran, which has more resources and people than Iraq, Saddam was instigating anti-Shia fervor against Shia Iran. He did not send the 19 terrorists on 911.
My point remains, the loss of blood & treasure by United States due to invading Iraq by George W Bush has proved to be catastrophic in de-stabilizing middle-east and Trillions borrowed to fight Iraq war.
In essence, we borrowed Trillions from China to protect oil flow to China from middle-east. It was the most idiotic foreign policy initiative by United States. It was unnecessary and way premature adventure by George W Bush, the dumbest republican president in a century.

Now you are moving the goalposts.
First you proposed that Saddam was a bulwark against jihadis, now you propose a far different standard.
However, Saddam’s Intelligence officers have been implicated in the Oklahoma City bombing (John Doe number two) and in the final coordination meeting for the 9-11 attack in Malaysia. That is just off the top of my head.
Face it, we remained at war with Saddam after the Gulf War (no fly zone in the North etc.) - he naturally sought other avenues to pressure us.
