Best thing we should do is let Muzzies fight each other.
So what if Saddam invaded Kuwait? Inter-Arab Muzzie Squabble that we should have stayed out of.
Bingo!
What a different world it would be if we said to Saddam, "Bravo, brother! Let's meet up in Riyadh and decide how things are going to go in the future".
The answer is our dependence on Arab oil. We could not allow those oil fields to fall into Saddam’s hands. Trump making the US oil independent had more to do with keeping the peace than all the sabre rattling.
