Reply #23: Israel long considered Saddam Hussein a major pain in the ass [View All]

[Warpy]

because of his policy of paying $50,000 to families whose houses had been bulldozed because a family member had either been convicted of or just suspected of terrorism. That was a lot of money, considering some of those "houses" were apartment buildings and a lot of people were made homeless by Israel's policy.

Israel wanted him removed. They wanted Iraq incapable of aiding the Arabs in the next war.

This is how it benefited Israel.

Now what has it done to benefit the US?
