"The day you stop kissing my butt, Saddam, your ass is mine."
Saddam was originally a CIA man recruited to assassinate the previous Iraqi president Abdel-Karim Qassem, who started taxing British and American oil companies in a first step to nationalize Iraq's oil resources.
Later when CIA was able to topple Qassam's presidency Saddam was sent back to Iraq to become the chief security officer, and later became the president.
The American administration provided Saddam with weapons and intelligence, and through its Israel proxy, provided Iran also with weapons and intelligence.
American military industry and logistical Bechtel profited tremendously by selling weapons and building Saddam's chemical plant to build chemical weapons that were used to bomb Kurdish Halabja.
Rumsfeld's famous hand shake with Saddam provides the proof on that.
