Saddam Hussein Speaks

Saddam Hussein says that he prepared the current guerrilla war ahead of the US invasion. He also said, according to DEBKAfile:

"...that during the six months leading up to the war, several offers came from Israeli and Western sources of a deal whereby sanctions against Iraq would be called off and diplomatic relations with Washington resumed if he extended recognition to Israel. But he claims to have refused, maintaining it was impossible and forbidden to relinquish holy land."

and Saddam says Syria is next

If American GIs are going to continue dying perhaps it is time there was an honest discussion as to why we invaded Iraq. Did we invade Iraq for naked imperialism and oil dependence or to shield an ally?
