For years, the US supported and kept in power Saddam Hussein with his faults and brutality to stabilize the region, even arming both sides in the Iran/Iraq War.
From Sykes-Picot to Mosaddagh, the sticky fingers of the US and Allies and Gulf Monarchies have created a MESS!

No one is taking action in the best interests of people, the artificially declared 'nations,' or the region.
No one is WAGING PEACE!
