But it can make Iraq a powerful country in the Middle East, which shows that Saddam still has some skills.
In sharp contrast to the luxurious life he lived every day before being captured alive by the US military, after the fiasco of the Iraq war, Saddam Hussein was captured alive by the US military as the chief culprit and put into prison after his arrest.
There, Saddam suffered physical destruction and serious mental humiliation and was imprisoned for three years. How did Saddam get through this tortured period?
Some information can be learned from some photos he took in prison. He is under close surveillance every day and has no privacy at all. Even when he goes to the bathroom, he will be watched.
But compared with these treatments, which may be the same as ordinary prisoners, the mental torture he suffered is undoubtedly more painful.
Among those photos, there is a famous photo in which two people are holding Saddam Hussein in underwear, and the other person is in charge of taking pictures. This is undoubtedly a great humiliation for Saddam.
Moreover, during Saddam's imprisonment, he could not get enough sleep time. I am often awakened by soldiers inexplicably when I am asleep, so I become trance.
It seems that what Saddam suffered shows that the US military violated the humanitarian spirit and abused prisoners.
However, if you look at the crimes committed by Saddam, all this seems too light. During his rule in Iraq, he pursued tyranny, and anyone who dared to resist him was put to death.
Anyone who dares to refuse to hang his portrait will be tortured to death by cruel means.
It is precisely because he killed too many people that Saddam Hussein is a complete tyrant in the eyes of the Iraqi people. If this were put in ancient times, it would be equivalent to the last king of a dynasty.
Because of his rule, few people dare to rise up against him. Later, the United Nations passed a resolution to wage war against Iraq, and Saddam Hussein also ushered in the beginning of the subversion of his autocratic empire.
If Saddam Hussein was not captured by the US military, but by the angry Iraqi people, it would be difficult for him to continue living, let alone be treated like that in prison.
It can be seen that Saddam Hussein and his followers have reached the point of disloyalty from the fact that his son was captured by the American army and launched a pro-army war against the United States and was defeated within two weeks.
We can't win the support of the people, even if we rally our troops to launch a counterattack, we will still end in failure. However, it is not in line with humanitarian principles when it comes to the way the US military treats Saddam Hussein.
It's cruel to humiliate him for so many years before the execution.
Maybe the U.S. military used it to vent their hatred. After all, the U.S. military suffered heavy losses in the Iraq war, and it makes sense to take Saddam as the object of venting.
However, this shows from the side that the human rights advocated by the US military are just a cover. There is no doubt that it is satirized under the banner of safeguarding human rights, but it is doing something that turns its back on human rights.
