IRAQ
Saddam Hussein gained power in 1979 (was the VP; led a coup against the leader)
1980s: Iraq and Iran fought a bloody eight year war over land possession near the Persian Gulf
Saddam used WMDs against his own people (Kurds)…he suspected they were helping Iran

IRAQ
1990: Iraq invaded Kuwait to gain their oil
Early 1991: U.S.-led/U.N. supported coalition tried to protect Kuwait (Desert Shield) and eventually invaded Iraq (Desert Storm)
Fighting was quick---fewer than 300 American deaths

IRAQ
End of war was based on cease-fire agreement that said Saddam would get rid of his WMDs and weapon programs
Most leaders felt he did not/was not going to do this
March, 2003---U.S. led coalition(but without full U.N. support) invaded Iraq

IRAQ
Goals were to find weapons, find Saddam and try and create a peaceful, and hopefully, democratic Iraq
Dec. 13, 2003---Saddam was captured; executed on Dec. 30, 2006
Over 4,200 deaths since war began in 2003

IRAQ
Iraqi ethnic makeup is unique for the region
1/3 Shiite
2/3 Sunni
No other country in the region has less than an 88% majority in terms of religious preference

IRAQ
This ethnic & religious diversity creates a situation where Iraq is a country that has people that want vastly different things
This diversity also makes it hard to impossible for U.S. forces to control
Some want a partition of Iraq---but given the diversity, the logistics of that would be tough as well

SAUDI ARABIA
Country is home to Mecca---the destination for the Muslim Hajj
Non-Muslims cannot enter Mecca 16 of the 19 hijackers of 9/11
airplanes were Saudis---they dislike the Saudi government for their relationship with U.S.---they feel Saudi Arabia shouldn’t export oil to America; also felt US troops based there during the Iraq war was an insult to the home of Islam.
