@Adolf Hitler

"Before he was born, cancer killed both Saddam's father and brother. These deaths so depressed Saddam's mother (Sabha) that she attempted to abort her pregnancy and commit suicide. When her son was born, Sabha "would have nothing to do with him", and Saddam was taken in by an uncle"

Welp saddam has the ultimate sad story

i thought you were using discord on a mobile browser @DA GOMMIE JOO 😡

"His mother remarried, and Saddam gained three half-brothers through this marriage. His stepfather, Ibrahim al-Hassan, treated Saddam harshly after his return"

"At about age 10,"

🇺🇸 lets get him to lead iraq

"Saddam fled the family and returned to live in Baghdad with his uncle Kharaillah Talfah. Talfah, the father of Saddam's future wife"
Wait wat

a cousin fucker too? that's iraq for you

Well holy shit

blah blah blah communism this nationalism that. Heard it all before (Using wikipedia)

anyway most of the time when america plays war games and coup games its pretty justified

they're pretty strict when it comes to power

Yet ironically is the most powerful nation on the planet

Sorry for being lazy researching this but I gotta eat my dinner

either way Im sure its mostly justified with the odd corruption and bad calls

there's no such thing as a true saint

Especially when you're a big 5

But that's why Im glad they oppose eachother. Because they can call out eachother's hypocrisy

"pretty sure it's mostly justified"
>literally funds genocide in guatemala

because they wanted to keep peace in north america, they thought they were practically terrorists. Dont blame the americans, blame the guatamalians who actually killed them

And that makes sense since the natives are often a savage and wild people. Its not like killing civilized people where they dont strive to rebel.

it was a civil war for godsake

oh yeah and wasnt guatemala communist at one point?

no

guatemala had an election in 1954

the new guatemalan president began a campaign of reform, including minimum wage laws

the banana oligarchy got pissed and called him a communist

the USA proceeded to fucking kill him and put the oligarchy in power

and the oligarchy genocided the fuck out of the mayan natives while the USA refused to intervene

Remember when Vietnam was allowed to democratically decide how they'd run their country, and then we yeeted on them when they used their self determination to work towards communism?

"we're america and we stand for freedom"
"okay we will freely elect a communist to run our democratic government"
"you WHAT"

@DA GOMMIE JOO yeah they were probably communist.
