Not to mention intelligence and satellite photos we shared with him when he was 'the lesser of two evils' in our war with Iran.
Both Hussein and Bin Laden were on our Christmas list in the 1980's. Not to mention, Marcos, and our friend
Manuel Noriega.
You can be a vicious dictator, just as long as you're not a
Commie vicious dictator, or get in our way, or threaten to destabilize a region supplying our oil.
BTW, Hussein could never go to trial in the US or in the world court. Especially not in the world court. He knows way too much about US involvement in Iraq and the Middle East and has no incentive to keep quiet. The US will have to see him tried and executed in Iraq.
