[Politics] Donald Rumsfeld Dead

[Blue3]

Aren't you mixing up your Gulf wars ? The first one was a response to Saddam's invasion of Kuwait.

Yes I was

 

[McTavish]

Saddam was certainly a nasty bit of work but was he a real threat to us and the other western powers or was it that dossier detailing wepons of mass distruction which Rumsfeld held up as the facts

That was the second Gulf War. The first one was due to Iraq invading Kuwait.

 

[Perfidious Albion]

I really detested this man at the time, and now that he has passed it would be dishonest to speak well of him.
On a human level I would have wished him no harm but I cannot mourn his passing.
