The question of whether or not the United States planted Saddam Hussein is a controversial one. Some people believe that the US government was behind Saddam’s rise to power, while others believe that the US had nothing to do with it. There is no clear evidence to support either claim, and the answer likely depends on who you ask.<\/p>\n

Did the United States support Saddam Hussein? <\/h2>\n

In the lead-up to the Gulf War, the United States provided significant intelligence and combat planning assistance to Saddam Hussein’s military. More than 60 US Defense Intelligence Agency officers were embedded with Iraqi units, and the US provided detailed satellite intelligence including pictures of enemy troop movements and installations. Despite this assistance, the Iraqi military was ultimately defeated by the US-led coalition.<\/p>\n

After spending nine months on the run, former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein is captured on December 13, 2003. Saddam’s downfall began on March 20, 2003, when the United States led an invasion force into Iraq to topple his government, which had controlled the country for more than 20 years.<\/p>\n
