CNN: Trump: World would be '100%' better with Hussein, Gadhafi in power
(CNN)Donald Trump believes the world would be much better off if ruthless dictators like Saddam Hussein and Moammar Gadhafi were still in power.
"100%," Trump replied when asked that question in an interview with CNN's Jake Tapper that aired Sunday on "State of the Union."
Trump said he believes Iraq and Libya, the respective countries of the since-deceased dictators, would be less fractured and promote a more stable Middle East if the two had not been forcefully pushed out of power. Hussein fell from power following the U.S. invasion of Iraq in 2003 and Gadhafi was ousted following violent civil strife in 2011 that ultimately drew a NATO-led military intervention.

At least the people today would still have a somewhat normal life,maybe not by our standards but they were able to have some security a future and a roof over their head.
Thanks to the US illegal meddling they have nothing good now.
Hillary and that other old vampire Albright think it was just fine to murder innocent civilians children included ..
"worth it" were their words ..
Using strong men to keep a grip on things seemed to work for a long time, things were stable in the region, not so anymore they really opened up a can of worms, it looks as if the mid east is close to being lost, and with it the oil, smooth move Ex-lax.
TWN, really is nothing new going on in the mid East this barbarians have been killing each other from the beginning of time maybe is time to shoot the camera off ., you know that old saying.. If your eyes can't see it your Hart can't feel it.
They should have not betrayed their boy saddam and tag teamed iran instead
At this point in time, the question is moot.
The question is, would they have been able to hold on to power? It seems to me that even before 2003 it was a matter of time before they collapsed and the West merely finished them off faster.
Tony Blair said, it was a mistake. dick Cheney n Rumsfeld who started the war says it was a mistake n intelligence error. i wounder if killing half a million people is just a mistake then how come a suicide bomber who kills 100 or 200 is a terrorist.
