Aww bull****.  you people really believe that?  You read something in print so it MUST be true?  Why is Saddam so well fed if there is no food in his country?  Why was he building palaces with the county's money instead of buyin food?  Are you guys really that obtuse? Do you think Saddam said,"  Oh gosh, no one will sell me food so I will spend 4 billion on a palace."  You guys are clowns if you really believe that tripe. [/QUOTE]


Steven have you seen the photos of his Palaces lately...
I guess photos of gold faucets, 3 swimming pools at one palaces, hundreds of frozen chickens,
As he’s people are starving,
Why would he spend 4 billion on palaces…..He’s a DICTAOR that’s why!

Just before the war Iraq had over $20 billion sitting unused in UN accounts. There was never lack of funds for food. Iraq was not allowed to buy quite a few things it wanted to buy - like chlorine for water purification, generators and replacement machinery for sewage-treatment plants, etc.
 They might as well spend those money on the palaces or minuments since it was not good for anything else.

 BTW, have you seen the photos of iraqis lately? How about live footage from the streets? Do they look malnourished? Not at all. Any mention of it in any article by a journalist that was there?

 Who the heck told you his people were ever starving? That's complete BS. They may not have the selection of a french supermarket available to them but when it comes to caloric intake and nutritional value - they are probably better off than most russians.
