O.K briefly in a nutshell for you . Saddam Husein was a charismatic leader of the Ba'ath party in Iraq . He became the president/ Dictator of Iraq. He was known to be a modren in his thinking . Women got a lot of freedom ,he modernised the Iraqi economy , had Western judicial system . He is known to improve the infrastructure ,aids to farmers and many good policies
Now like every Dictator uses terror , he was no less . There was a separatist movement in a part of Iraq occupied by Kurds , Saddam Gassed 5,000 Kurds to death ,maimeed 10,000 people.
There was an attempt to assasinate Saddam which failed . Saddam's army killed a town full of people - some 200 people to leave a message .
As of now he is in prison in Iraq( was captured by U.S Soldiers in 2003) and is facing trial amongst his people(Iraqis) for genocide (killing of thousands) amongst other things .
Hope my brief helped in understanding Saddam story . 😊
