He was 86 and thought he could just chill in his house
>>
back when war was based and fun without ai drones
>>
>>529479926
Saddam still had loyal supporters that became insurgents and were sniping and blowing up Mutt soldiers.
>>
>>529479926
They got the intelligence wrong, and Saddam wasn't where he was expected. Had he been where they thought he was, he would have died on the first day too.

I will assume that with the improvements in surveillance and tracking, they were able to make more sure this time

>>529479926
Khamanei wasn’t hiding.
>>
>>529479926
Yea he was a nerd put in the big chair out in the open by the chads, he was an easy shot. Of course they blasted him to smithereens. Saddam killed a million people between him and KHOMEINI - Literally the Prophet of Truth from Halo 3 - and fought Iran to a standstill, then toughed out invading and getting repelled by the US out of Kuwait, AND STILL threw up a fiery defense and resistance in Iraq from 2003 -2008

Bush wanted war and Trump wants to win. Big difference.
>>
>>529480366
He was a coward who tried to hide behind his daughter and granddaughter
>>
Khamenei thought negotiations were still underway. He didn't realize Trump is truly faithless (but the world now does).
>>
>>529480524
Al Qeada were not "loyal supporters" of Saddam, you dummy. They were opportunists.
>>
That's why I say this is all fake and gay
Dude was 86 and already knew Trump plays these sorts of games.
Watch Khamenei having played this knowing he was a dead man walking and set himself up to be killed to justify some other response.
>>
>>529481099
This. With Bush it was all about appearance and having a big invasion to outdo his dad, and all so the war profiteers like Cheney could make out like bandits. Haliburton provided food among other things for troops in the warzone. You can't do that with a war that is conducted with just airstrikes.
>>
>>529481118
Or he just lived with his family? You think he didn't know Israel wasn't above killing women and children?
>>529481196
Al Qaeda was not the only faction in the Iraqi insurgency. There were Hussein loyalists.
>>529481412
You also need an invasion to actually achieve regime change, which Trump will have to do if he wants to.
