"Where were they when it was revealed Saddam had gassed his own people? No one noticed them protesting about that." For the umpteenth time: may of us did protest about it. If no one noticed, it was because the media simply refused to report it. And there were good reasons they did not. A more pertinant question would be to ask "Where were the current occupiers of Iraq when it was revealed Saddam had gassed his own people? And what was their response to it?". If you look at the documentary record, I think you will find the answers illuminating.
It didn't involve denouncing the monster and removing their military, financial and diplomatic support for him, I'll tell you that much. Remember that the West (including Britain) supported the dictator right up until his invasion of Kuwait, which was AFTER the brutal supression of the uprising in the Kurdish region.
I could go on, but I feel like I'm wasting my time.
