Saddam was like one of those smaller predators that hunts in packs but tend to get picked off by bigger predators when isolated. In this case the U.S. was the bigger predator.

Rest in piss, #PACKWATCH, etc. but what came after him was definitely worse. Same with Assad. If Putin falls and a Western lackey replaces him it'll be the same deal.
