They put more weight on some of the links... than we did but our view was there was no evidence to suggest serious collaboration of any sort between Al-Qaeda and Saddam Hussein's regime
Given McIntosh’s logic, should America put up a statue of Saddam Hussein because he was an ally of the U.S. in the 1980s when we supported Iraq in a war against Iran?
We heard people in Washington suggest that there might be some link between Saddam Hussein and Osama bin Laden. We never saw any evidence of it, but the tone of voice was more 'if there turns out to be any link between Saddam Hussein and Osama bin Laden that is going to have major implications for Iraq ...
The focus didn't shift to regime change. It shifted to the weapons of mass destruction problem. In the case of Iraq, in order to deal with [this] problem, you would probably end up having to push Saddam Hussein out of power.
I have only one fear ... It is that the Americans will realise at the last moment that attacking Iraq and overthrowing Saddam Hussein is not in their own best interests.
we heard people in Washington thought there might be some link between Saddam Hussein and Osama bin Laden ... I don't think we saw any evidence of it.

the focus didn’t shift to regime change, the focus shifted to WMD. In order to order to deal with the WMD problem in Iraq, you would probably end up having to push Saddam out. That was the sequence of events. It wasn’t hopping straight to regime change.
This region has seen too many conflicts, like the Iran-Iraq war, invasion of Kuwait by Iraq, and the war that led to ouster of Saddam Hussein. We cannot afford more conflicts in the region.
During the winter of 2002-03, there were fears in London that several factions might compete for power if Saddam Hussein fell, and that violence or moves towards civil war were possible
History will record that Saddam was among the most brutal and evil tyrants of the Middle East. This is something we must not forget as Iraq attempts to establish a new society, one that guarantees freedom and fundamental human rights.
Daioleslam is an unsavory character, said by multiple sources to be affiliated with the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK, or MKO) — a terrorist group (classified as such by the State Department) with close ties to the Saddam Hussein regime.
The United States has a special relationship with the Kurds in that it had become their defender after the first Gulf War and in some ways their protector during the latter part of Saddam Hussein’s regime.
The Kurds were forced to leave during the period Saddam Hussein ruled Iraq and then after the American invasion, a huge number came back ... And of course the Sunni Arabs accused the Kurds of exaggerating the numbers because they harbored the ambition of annexing it to the Kurdistan Regional Government ...
Saddam was one person. . . . Now each person of the new Iraq government, I mean the officials, each of them wants to be Saddam
This means we're halfway down the road to the end of the free press in Iraq, which was one of the few gains from the overthrow of Saddam Hussein.

I came to Iraq three days after Saddam Hussein fled Baghdad. It was April 12, 2003. At the time, Iraqis bristled when asked if they were Sunni, Shiite or Kurd. It made no difference, they said, they were brothers. And, in the heady aftermath of the war, for a short while it almost seemed true.
Saddam decided to withdraw his armed forces completely from Iran, deploying them along the international border between Iraq and Iran.
continue the war until Saddam Hussein is overthrown so that we can pray at Karbala and Jerusalem
Iraq’s people supports parliament because it was elected and not appointed as in Saddam Hussein’s time, which is still the case in other parliaments of the region
