Actually the Iraq Iran war was given the green light by the US...Iran was sleeping with what was going on there, the intelligence given to Iraq was by the US..so the US started it because their chosen leader of Iran..the Shah had been kicked out...the US wanted to control the oil again...
Iraq fought a ware against iran, helped and funded by Kuwait and saudi, and approved by the US..after the war any many deaths both sides,around 1 million, Kuwait wanted iraq to pay back the money !..Saddam said..are you kidding ! I fought this war on your behalf, and proxy war on behalf of the US.
Saddam asked the US to get involved, they washed there hands of it. What Kuwait did next was to drill oil from underneath Iraqi soil, and increase its production, lowering the price of the barrel, nearly bankrupting Iraq.
Thats why Saddam went into Kuwait, then this jumped up story that Iraq caused 911..Now Saddam has gone its a total mess...Answer your question ?
Buddy..but in goes hand in hand..the industrial world and our countries would be nothing without the oil to run our cars, ships, planes, industry, power stations, whilst we have the knowledge to create, the oil the Arabs have, gives them money to buy our goods, one cannot be without the other.
..so wake up,hold onto direct your hate, dislike, what ever you want to call it, and just look over the fence at the other and what they have to say for once.
if your kid comes home and says I've been bullied and a bruised face, do you go round and smash that kid in the face ? or do you get their side of the story? just to see if your kid has lied, so he don't get in trouble ..
The muslim world being ?..Of course there are many countries that dislike America, not just muslim countries, but not all muslims. Any country that has been invaded and caused untold suffering by another will be disliked by its countrymen,women and children.
Less powerful countries are insignificant, if it has something the USA wants, be it oil ,to and island it wants to build an air base on, removing its inhabitants.
The muslim world didn't come to the aid of there brothers and sisters in Croatia, the Middle east countries tend to look after there immediate neighbors, the only time Saudi comes to their aid is if they feel Whabbism is threatened, and they did this in the 70's when they felt communism was heading towards Afghanistan and Pakistan, call it a wall of defense.
When will it stop !...the muslim questions
The friends,of,America,at the time, and,saddam was, did nothing without the US saying yes..
