the movie is good, it is like godfather but better. But what me and my famely realised that some part of the movie is not true... The actors is varry good no other coment 4 that... sorry 4 my bad english.
this is an israeli cast of actors! bastards!!!! we continue to terrorise ur country! israel willnever exist in the arab world! we will strike terror through ur hearts!
when Saddam asked the American ambassador about their attitude of the war she told him that it's their own problem which Saddam considred it as a "green light" to invade Kuwait,BBC unfortunately didn't present that clearly,besides,Hossain Kamel wasn't that clever,specially when he returned to Iraq after betraying Saddam,what did you aspect?THIS IS SADDAM MAN!
There was a meeting between saddam and a government official of america, she said america has no oppinion on a war with kuwait, meaning they dont care and wouldnt get involved, but they did. They let iraq bank rupt itself so they had no money to defend themselves when America finally attacked. America suplied kuwait oil rigs to steal iraqs oil, America wanted to provoke iraq into a war with kuwait. It wouldnt surprise me if America had something to do with kuwait drilling and shipping more oil-
to play havoc with iraqs economy, they knew iraq needed money. Its not a coincidence that Bush sr started a war and Bush jrs trying to finish it. All been planned. Bush did not have permission to attck iraq from the united nations, he attacked iraq because they were going to start selling oil in the euro and disregard the dolla. HBO has made the documentary so it wouldnt put any bad things about America. But i know all countrys sensor material. HISTORY HAS TAUGHT: America likes using flase flags
The kuwaitis have definitely helped in this dirty conspiracy, the least thing can be done to the kuwaiti leader is killing them, those people helped in bringing the destruction of a very powerful country and the death of tens of thousands little children and innocent people, those camel riders know nothing but get married to more than one wife and buying fancy cars
Its a bit biased, shame there isnt much said about the cia's role in his life. How he came to power, how he stayed in power, why he went to war with iran, why he went to war with kuwait all influenced by his so called american friends. Under the definition of 'stitched up' in the dictionary should be saddams name. The whole thing must have been planned from 1980 to current, americas plan, bunkrupt iraq, then put men on the ground and have a foot hold on the middle east, very sneaky
The tables are turned, opec countrys are doing the same to western countrys, by playing havoc with there economy so they cant afford to start another war
True, but did it make a slight effort on yday's episode when it showed the American's unfairly siding with Kuwait. Don't judge it until it's shown the whole series, but as it stands for now, Saddam's being shown as a one-dimensional monster. But then, so's George Bush. Ah, the power of the media...
I dont think this movie will be like a (humiliation) to Muslims. The Fact that that bastard killed a lot of Muslims in Iraq and invaded Kuwait and destroyed the oil pipes which made a lot of disasters that have been threatening people's lives until this moment in the Gulf area. well, I think this movie would be a great idea to show the world a lot of facts about this (tyrant) and how he acted as if he was the great God!!!! Al7amdulillah( thanx god) that he's burning in hell right now!
@SleepHigh i know your post is 2 years but just wanted to ask you, who are you to determine he went to hell or not ? are you doing God's job on earth ? do you know it's prohibited in Islam to say such thing and that you could go to hell for that ?
This show is offending. However, im proud of my loyalty to such a great man, he fought the iranis and the israelis and didnt bow for the westerns ...im so proud of living in the same time witnessing such a great man ...God bless his soul and the soul of his comrades and all Iraqi soldiers who fought for their land and for the Arab world
wat the fuk r u talking about this so called hero of yours killed so many of ur beloved arabs or is that ok with u as long as he killed iranians "who happened to be muslims aswell btw" ????
yes he killed a lot ...so did all great leaders througout history did that to keep their country in one piece, we all know that most of the people he killed were traitors (dealing with israel or iran) ...he stood in the face of the iranians and now you can obviously tell for sure he was never wrong about them and their to those militia bandits killing and terrifying innocent people
A great leader?! According to your definition all dictators such that ruled their countries by fear are great. I remember when I was in Iraq nothing used to happen to a person that swears at god, but a person that used to say anything at saddam would get hanged, and according to you since saddam never claimed he was a democratic person then it is justified. I wish saddam used his power to really unite the Iraqis but rather he used his power to fear the Iraqi people so he can stay in power.
The kind of people and you are surly one of them, who try to justify saddams actions are either used to benefit of saddams regime or are a dictators worshipers. Just try to justify the main crimes of Saddam which were the Iraq-Iran war and the Kuwait invasion.
For the Iraq-Iran war, saddam had to sign in a UN document to end of the war and one of the conditions put by the Iranian was that Iraq was the first attacker and the guilty and saddam still agreed to sign it. So, I really don't understand why the hell we fought that war and both sides lost about 1.5 millions and at the end according to the UN saddam started the war.
Saddam Hussein never claimed he was a democratic person and im not saying he was an angel, Iraq was in war on both fronts (iran and israel) and extreme actions were needed to control his country ...he managed to build a very strong country and the level of education was amazing during his period, it could have been better but let's compare what he has done compared to any other country, he made a very strong country that scared the shit out of israel and iran...God bless your soul Saddam Hussein
What about the Kuwait invasion, saddam claim that Kuwait is part of Iraq and that is why he invaded them and people like you believed it. So can you answer this: Why the hell did saddam destroy Kuwait, he sent his people to steal everything from there even traffic lights! And that was before the American got there. Just why the hell he will do that if Kuwait was part of Iraq, is he that stupid to destroy his own country!
Since saddam was a dictator he is responsible for absolutely everything, the wars the sanctions and the current racism situation which all had it roots during his regime. But to be honest if you really want to know why what happened to Iraq has happened then all what you need to do is to look into a mirror.
are you naive or what ?? he invaded kuwait for several reasons, he fought for the all arabs against the iranians, now you can obviously tell the iranians and the amount of destruction they brought and still do to Iraq and the whole arab world ...kuwaitis refused to decrease of amount of oil production to raise the prices after the iraqi-iranian war, Iraq desperately needed money and yet the kuwaitis stole oil from their the iraqi lands
I must say that your reasoning is more messed up than I thought! You admit that he was a dictator and yet you are proud to live under his regime, so at least I was right when I put you in the "dictator worshiper" category. You also need to understand something; I hate the gulf and the Iranian regimes more than you do, and I know very well how much they hate Iraq.
Saddam could have included Kuwait into Iraq so easily, just invade the country and bring their coward royal family to Baghdad, don't even have to kill them. That's really it! But what he did was to destroy Kuwait for no reason, stealing the country and therefore justifying it for the US to get into the gulf; btw they did give him the green light. Now tell me was saddam that stupid to destroy Kuwait which is part of Iraq, I doubt it.
Why when you talk about saddams achievement you use the tone that the Iraqi people are in debt for it. Saddam did the least of the least, with the resources Iraq have and the "PHDs", Iraq must have been the most powerful country in Asia, and u know that very well, and the only thing stopped that from happening was the war on Iran and the Kuwait invasion. Just please tell me what did saddam achieve out of these two wars! And don't tell me they were a victory!
Did you know that the gulf used to pay saddam 1 billion dollars monthly to support the war on Iran? The mother f***ers where using Iraq, my brothers and yours where dying to fight for them! But who's to blame, of course saddam. Look at them now, they ended up getting the US into Iraq and they have very strong relations with Iran, who lost? We did.
yes he's a dictator and im proud to be under the reign of a strong dictator who built a very strong country and brought the education to large number of people and baghdad had the highest number of PHDs, ofcourse im proud, no man is perfect and he wasnt perfect and im with him on invading kuwait, its his land, its our land, he can make a better use of their oil better than those pigs running after women and buying fancy cars
all arab gulf countries for 50 years did nothing, all they do is build tall buildings and spend their money on cars and they're getting more and more dumber and people are stupid like those camels they used to ride ...Shamefully iraq now is ruled by those traitors who came from iran or the west and their militias kill in the name of Allah (moktada el sadr militias, anyone !!!)
Saladin had to invade all the arab and muslim kings in this region to unite it, so why is it ok for Saladin and not Saddam !!! imagine that Saddam took over the whole arab gulf !! under one ruler instead of 10 rulers, one strong country with half of the oil of the world, the westerns wouldnt dare to curse Mohammad and would stop supporting Israel ...im more than proud of Saddam and God bless his soul (im not claiming he's a saint or something but at least he tried to do something)
Please don't compare saddam to Saladin or to any Islamic leader. Saladin was a man of Principe but Saddam was a faro, for god sake Saddam and his family were living like kings and the Iraqi people were dying, why is you memory so short. So please do try to make saddam an Islamic figure, because you will only make fool of yourself and the west will curse the prophet (PBUH) even more.
Please don't compare saddam to Saladin or to any Islamic leader.

So please do not* try to make saddam an Islamic figure, because you will only make fool of yourself and the west will curse the prophet (PBUH) even more.
im not trying to make Saddam as an islamic figure and he was never like that, he was a leader who believed in pan-arab and arab unity and i never said that Saddam was the sole reason for the PHDs and Iraq's strength, the Iraqi people are very smart and i totally respect their sacrifices and their hard working but i also dont curse the person who always tried to make a better or stronger Iraq
Saddam, his comrades and the whole Iraqi people fought and sacrificed for the arab world and thankfully im a person who never forgets other people favours, i gotta admit that not everyone agrees on Saddam's actions but i still respect the strong Iraq that was during his regime and his stands against israel ...compare him to current iraqi leaders, that's all im asking for
again i respect your point of view and i respect the way you discuss this logiclly instead of others who start cursing like a crazy brainwashed bitch ...im not asking you to love Saddam but a little of gratitude for him wouldnt be a bad thing, i hope that one day we could get someone who's better than Saddam and someone who believes in democracy and works hard for Iraq and the arab world
