Iraq War: Saddam's View

We all know how the Iraq war appears to Americans. But little is known about how it was experienced by Saddam Hussein. After his capture, Saddam met every day with FBI Agent George Piro, who was the front man for a team of FBI and CIA analysts who were trying to answer some of the great mysteries of recent history, including what happened to the weapons of mass destruction? On the fifth anniversary of the Iraq war, we hear Saddam's story.

The ONLY way we all will make it through together is to follow how our leaders started this government. That is still on our one dollar bills "IN GOD WE TRUST".

Following the "In God We Trust" submission, I'm not sure when Jesus said "love your enemies" he meant "kill them".

God can't even save us now. We've travelled too far down the path of no return. Bend over and kiss it good-bye

True, however, have you seen the new coins recently minted? In God We Trust is not there any longer. Since we as a people have chosen to make other people happy instead of finding out what side God is on and make sure that we stay there, the next terrorist attck will be far deadlier and, hopefully, a wakeup call to those still alive. Time will tell...

I am happy you feel that way, But what does trusting in god have to do with the choices of men.

IN GOD WE TRUST was only added in the 1950's in the wake of the McCarthy Communist "witch hunt" --what does that have to do with this?

People who are against this war need to seriously step back and take a look at what we are doing. Fighting for this country, and for everyone that lives in. Now thats fine if you want to say that we shouldnt be over there because thousands of our men dying. Well you know those men knew that signing up involved a danger such as this. At least we have men and women who go and fight for us and die for a good reason then for some ridiculous reason as those who we are fighting against. If it wasnt for people like them we wouldnt have the type of life that we have now or will continue to have. Maybe some of us forgot about the true reason behind all of this, remember that day when we all became one as Amercians! Black, white, hispanics everyone came together as a country. Well if you forgot maybe we should start showing clips of the planes hitting the buildings and them falling every morning and every night!
