If the Iraqi people hated Saddam so much, why didn't they take him down? All it would take is one person to assassinate him. With the whole country hating him, I am suprised that someone would not step up.

They tried in 1991. The Sheite (sp?) uprising.
We told them that we had there back and to rise up & overthrow Saddam. Then we pulled out because Saddam agreed to UN RESOLUTIONS which he never intended to follow. After he signed the bullshit paperwork we pulled out and the Sheite's were slaughtered.
Saddam had such terrorist hold over his people that even if he was killed the people knew Uday or his other Brother or a high ranking Bath party official would rape torture and kill their famaliy & freinds. Would you kill him if everyone you loved would be punnished severly for it? I doubt it.
