It's funny how he wasnt evil when he was committing atrocities against his own people (who the U.S. didnt care about) but he became evil when he decided to go for oil that was vital to the U.S.

you dont bite the hand that feeds you. its that simple. im sure you arent so self righteous about human rights violations in countries that benefit you personally.

I think you may have missed the point of his argument. 

no, sadaam didnt keep with the program. when he was an ally, no one cared because it didnt affect America. i dont think i missed anything here.

I meant his overall argument, not that single paragraph. Also, people did care about what was happening, especially families of the Kurds who were gassed. The average American may not have cared because they were uninformed, however if they had been I'm sure many more of them would have spoken out against a man who gassed innocent civilians and imprisoned many others.

Larry King got treated. A lot of good points made in the interview.
