Quote from AP
"It was a grim end for the 69-year-old leader who had vexed three U.S. presidents."

What the hell does this mean?
Which three?
Seems to me that Reagan and Poppy Bush were very cozy at times.

1. If only Americans were curious about history.
Saddam Hussein was the modern Prometheus - created by our own CIA. In 1963, under Kennedy, the CIA was ordered to start grooming Saddam Hussein... Just open up The Google, type in Hussein CIA Coup and let your cursor do the walking. There is a wealth of information on the topic.

We are now, in my humble opinion, as bad as those who behead our journalists... we are barbarians.

I feel ashamed to be an American.

If only Americans were curious about history.
