So Hussein had this massive army that was well-supplied and 
well-trained, eh? Efficient fighting machines, eh? And Hitler was in 
power how long before he was removed? Hussein has been in Iraq for 
ages... so you're wrong in that.
The differences are: Hitler was commander of a world power. At the time, 
THE major world power. Hitler took a well-supplied army in the thirties, 
built it into an efficient machine and walked around Europe in the 
forties. Hussein is NOT a commander of a *world power*. His armies were 
never well-equipped unless the US gave them the weaponery. He was in 
power longer than Hitler ever was. And he hasn't done much for his 
people except maybe exploit them a little. Hitler was at least giving 
his people something. Don't make the comparison between things that 
aren't really that similar.
