In a new book, former FBI agent George Piro was able to get a lot of information out of Saddam Hussein before he was executed.
Among tidbits gleaned from an online article (click here), Saddam had the entire west fooled about WMDs in an effort that was originally mounted to dissuade Iran from attacking Iraq. Well, it worked for Iran, but not the West.
Other tidbits; he confessed to slaughtering 180,000 Kurds, he admitted to plotting to build a doomsday nuke, he was a hypocritical Muslim in his non-religious behavior, and he believed UN sanctions would be lifted.
All in all, the world is a better place without him.
