No lie Saddam was basically set up in the first gulf war.
no the ydidnt have them in 90s
Nukes lets North Korea have a "safe distance" from invasion
British Empire in South Africa, Afganistan, China, Crimea.}
America in Grenada, Panama, Equador Colombia,
Soviet Union in Afganistan,
Russia in Georgia and South Ossetia
Japan in Korea all 3 times
Its not worth the effort to invade Korea
Kim Jong-il himself thought Saddam was an idiot to get himslef invaded
definitely was for iraq. no allies, no nukes
US Ambassador to Iraq in 1990: We have no opinion on your Arab-Arab conflicts, such as your dispute with Kuwait. Secretary Baker has directed me to emphasize the instruction, first given to Iraq in the 1960s, that the Kuwait issue is not associated with America.
DPRK👏🏻 DIDNT👏🏻 HAVE👏🏻 NUKES👏🏻 IN👏🏻 90'S
get that through your thick skulls
and yet they didnt get yeeted
Kim wasnt wrong, Saddam definitely put himself in that position
I also heard the CIA stating that they can take advantgae of Iraq's many groups to build an Anti-Saddam coalition when the U.S. invaded, can't do that in Best Korea
But the DPRK did have enough artillery aimed at Soul to demolish the SK economy
also cuba is even more isolated than iraq
and they werent invaded
its as good as a nuke
They were invaded
@vexmasina44 Nukes are a stronger guarantee, they still had China being a geopolitical ally. The Nuke is more for extra protection for the future
bay of pigs
or did the bay of pigs not happen
Iran was even more islationist than iraq
And people want to invade Iran, it is just harder than Iraq
@RIP Skelly 3/7 boats used for Bay of Pigs were from the United Fruit Company. Banana imperialism at its finest
after that it became politically unfeasible to invade Cuba.
Instead Neoliberalism Tempts the Cuban Communist Party to slowly Become Revisionist over time
Economic Conquest in the Works
And invading island nations is a massive logistical nightmare for a modern army
cuban military is even smaller than Iraqs lol
they dont even have flying aircraft
a complete pushover
They have geography
thats all they need
And big allies
BIG ALLIES
Iraq's invasion was also fueled by Post-9/11 Anger from the American People to invade anything in the Middle East
whereas with Iraq they got defeated soundly during the gulf wars
@Despot Romanicus the Enslaver neocons took advantage of that
Most certainly they did
iraq at least had an airforce and millions of soldiers lol
cuba has a militia and couple of fishing boats
The Iraq War in the beginning was very popular, if anyone remembers, everyone was a hawk in the early 2000s
Mass Media is very effective
You dont fight a war by comparing your army list to the other guy
Political will to invade Cuba is nothing compared to invading Iraq and Afghanistan immediately after 9/11
@Despot Romanicus the Enslaver WMDs for Iraq in 2003
