Why Saddam, whose military power was completely weakened, as it has been seen, instead of, for instance, Theodore Obiang, from Equator Guinea, whose people suffer as much as the iraqi people with Saddam?
It doesn't. /// Because they simply don't have enough power to make it cost effective. /// Because he's a convenient target that we can do something about.
