DEAR FRIENDS ,

 

I DO NOT THINK ANY BODY KILLED SADDAM. IN FACT, HE COMMITTED SUICIDE. SUICIDE IS OF TWO TYPES. ONE, WHICH IS DONE BY USING A WEAPON OR A DEVICE OR MEDICATION WHICH CAUSES INSTANT DEATH. THE OTHER TYPE IS THE ONE WHICH KILLS A PERSON GRADUALLY. IT IS TECHNICALLY CALLED " DEATH BY SLOW POISONING" .

NOW PLEASE SEE THE HISTORY OF THIS MAN:-

 

1)    WHAT MADE HIM ATTACK IRAN IN 1980 IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE COUNTRY WAS LIBERATED BY  KHUMAINI FROM THE CLUTCHES OF A BRUTE KING / RULER, RAZA SHAH ?

 

2)    IN THAT SENSELESS WAR, WHICH LASTED FOR ABOUT EIGHT YEARS, OVER A MILLION PEOPLE DIED, ALL MUSLIMS ! THE WAR HAD AN ADVERSE EFFECT ON THE GROWTH & ECONOMY OF THE TWO FIGHTING NATIONS, IRAN & IRAQ.

SADDAM WAS ONLY RESPONSIBLE FOR THAT KILLING AND DEVASTATION .

 

3)   AGAIN IN 2000 HE RAIDED KUWAIT FOR NO RHYME OR REASON. THUS CREATED AN  OPPORTUNITY FOR AMERICAN ARMIES TO ENTER SAUDI ARABIA AND TO CAMP IN KUWAIT & QATAR. IN THIS BRIEF WAR, SADDAM GOT NOTHING BUT SEVERELY DAMAGED THE ECONOMY OF KUWAIT WHEN THE RETREATING IRAQI ARMY BURNED ALMOST ALL THE OIL WELLS.

 

4)   IN IRAQ, HE WAS A MERCILESS DICTATOR AND NEVER TOLERATED SLIGHTEST OPPOSITION, KILLED THOUSANDS OF KHURDS AND IRAQIS WHO DID NOT AGREE WITH HIS POLICIES.

 

5)   IRAQ HAS BEEN THE SECOND LARGEST OIL PRODUCING COUNTRY IN THE WORLD. HE DID NOTHING FOR THE WELFARE,  GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT OF HIS CITIZENS. FROM THE OIL WEALTH, HE MADE LUXURIOUS PALACES FOR HIMSELF AND HIS FAMILY AND FRIENDS. HIS WAS A RUTHLESS, SELF CENTERED, TOTALITARIAN DICTATORSHIP.

 

6)   WHEN AMERICANS RAIDED & CAPTURED IRAQ, THEY FOUND BILLIONS OF US DOLLARS CASH  IN SADDAM'S PALACES. FROM HIS MAIN PALACE, THEY FOUND 640 MILLION US DOLLARS PACKED IN ALUMINUM FOILS WHEREAS THE COMMON IRAQIS IN CITIES AND VILLAGES WERE DYING FOR FOOD & MEDICINE, CLOTHES AND SHELTER.

 

7)   HE COULD NOT DEVELOP AN ARMY OR WEAPONRY TO DEFEND HIS COUNTRY AGAINST ANY FOREIGN ATTACK, ALTHOUGH MUCH BEFORE THE USA ATTACK,  HE HAD PLENTY OF TIME, RESOURCES AND OPPORTUNITIES TO DO THAT.

 

8)   HE HAD NO WISDOM OF DIPLOMATIC DEALINGS. IN VIEW OF AMERICAN  THREATS, HE COULD HAVE SOLD OR LEASED HIS OIL TO CHINA OR RUSSIA , OR TO FRANCE OR GERMANY. ANY SUCH MOVE WOULD HAVE PREVENTED USA TO ATTACK IRAQ . SIMILARLY, HE COULD HAVE BOUGHT SOPHISTICATED ARMS AND WEAPONS FROM INDIA, PAKISTAN, RUSSIA AND OTHER EX. USSR ALLIED LIKE UKRAINE , GEORGIA, ETC.

 

9)   DESPITE ALL THESE HANDICAPS, HE USED TO THREAT HIS NEIGHBOURS AND DREAM TO LEAD THE ISLAMIC WORLD. NOTHING MORE THAN A FANATIC  !

 

10)   HIS FINAL IDIOCY WAS THE SELECTION OF HIS HIDE-OUT. WITH SO MUCH WEALTH , HE COULD HAVE ESCAPED AND TAKEN REFUGE ANY WHERE IN AFGHANISTAN OR INDIA, RUSSIA OR FRANCE, SUDAN OR CUBA, ETC. ETC. THE CAVE HE CHOSE, EXPOSES HIS MENTAL CAPABILITY.

 

FROM THE ABOVE GIVEN FACTS, A SAFE CONCLUSION CAN BE DRAWN THAT NO BODY KILLED HIM BUT HE WAS A VICTIM OF SELF-SERVED SLOW POISON.

 

AND FINALLY, I WOULD LIKE TO QUOTE ALLAMA IQBAL :

    " KERTI HAY MALA-KU-YETH AASAAR-E-JUNOO PAIDA,

      ALLAH KAY NISHTER HAIN, TAIMOOR HO YA CHANGAZE"

     

YOU MAY REPLACE TAIMOOR & CHANGAZE, WITH BUSH & BLAIR  !!

 

BEST REGARDS: SKY
