Bill Clinton: Saddam’s Aides Mostly ‘Good, Decent’
November 18, 2005
Former president Bill Clinton praised Saddam Hussein’s lieutenants and their underlings on Tuesday, saying they were mostly “good” and “decent” people.”
“When [the U.S.] kicked out Saddam, they decided to dismantle the whole authority structure,” Clinton told an audience at American University in Dubai. “Most of the people who were part of that structure were good, decent people who were making the best out of a very bad situation,” he added.
While Clinton didn’t name, names, Saddam’s authority structure was dominated by his two murderous sons, Uday and Qusay, as well as notorious characters like Ali Hassan al-Majid, [aka Chemical Ali], Barzan al-Takriti, who ran the Iraq’s brutal intelligence service, Izzat Ibrahim al-Douri, who governed northern Iraq during chemical weapon attacks in the Kurds, and Huda Salih Mahdi Ammash [aka Mrs. Anthrax], who was a member of Saddam’s Baathist National Command.
Clinton offered praise for Saddam’s lieutenants during the same speech where he criticized the U.S. invasion of Iraq as “a big mistake.”

Peter Paul: Origins Of Hillary Clinton’s Whistleblower
November 15, 2005
Since I came forward in March, 2001, to report campaign finance fraud by Hillary Clinton in her 2000 Senate campaign, the mainstream media continues to hide the facts, and the significance, of Hillary Clinton’s role in directing the largest campaign finance fraud on record. This has been hidden in plain sight by the media even though it involves the first criminal prosecution of a U.S. Senator’s finance director for election fraud, the use of Sen. Edward Kennedy’s brother-in-law as an FBI informant who wore a wire to secretly record incriminating conversations with Hillary’s finance director, and witnesses that include A-List Hollywood celebrities and media figures.
Because I witnessed, and inadvertently participated in, Hillary Clinton’s deception of the voters of New York about my relationship with her in two blatantly false stories given to the Washington Post by Hillary’s spokesman Howard Wolfson in August, 2000. Because I witnessed Hillary Clinton’s role in filing three fraudulent reports with the Federal Election Commission and the U.S. Senate about my identity and how much I contributed to her campaign, I have been unavoidably thrust into the role of whistle blower and plaintiff in an historic civil suit against a President and Senator for fraud and conspiracy.
