what war? sad dam just wasted iraks wealth buying weapons and hurling them helter skelter at the other side....they all ended up rusting in the desesrt....what a waste......
The war was just what you said about Saddam , however if you look at it wisely you'll get it happened to end the revolution of Iranians . You can see that in the pics Iranian and Iraqi innocent people paid the price of Saddam's dreams , Western and Saudi Arabian politics .
Iranians never had problem with Iraqis , both Muslim and specially shia nations .
I remember that , A few years ago I read a book written by an Iraqi PW who was in a camp in the north of Iran .
He wrote that , Saddam and his regime's leaders had forced all the youth to go to the battlefield and if people didn't accept the regime always killed their families and raped their wives , daughters and ...
In other part of the book he wrote that most of the Iraqi soldiers just fought or stood in the battlefield cos they had no other choice . Most of them didn't want to fight with their Muslim brothers in Iran and in other hand didn't want to be counted as betrayers by leaving the battlefield or giving up cos If they were counted as betrayers their families and relatives would have been killed by Saddam , He said , most of us ( Iraqi soldiers ) just prayed to be captured by Iranian forces cos in this condition we neither would have been counted as betrayers nor had to kill Iranians .
est of this book talked about how he was captured and Iranian people who didn't blame them as they knew what was going on in Iraq .
