Summary
As this article discusses, when the U.S. captured Saddam Hussein, it
essentially nailed an ex-employee. Saddam was on the U.S. payroll for
nearly a decade. The CIA, in fact, put Saddam in power. This simple fact
is never mentioned in the popular press, of course. Saddam must be
portrayed as an evil demon, not as a person who was funded, trained and
put into power by the United States of America.

At last in U.S. military captivity, ousted former Iraqi president
Saddam Hussein will soon mark an important 20th anniversary, the kind of
anniversary that brings with it an appreciation of the ironies of life,
and politics.
If so, he will remember that he was in Baghdad, as a special envoy
from then-president Ronald Reagan, assuring his host that, to quote the
secret National Security Decision Directive (NSDD) that served as his
talking points: the United States would regard "any major reversal of
Iraq's fortunes as a strategic defeat for the West."
Within a year, Washington would fully normalize ties with Saddam and
even suggest that the dictator had become a full-fledged "Arab
moderate," ready to make peace with Israel.
