Saddam used chemical weapons on Iran and the U.S. helped him. Would you actually want a country like that to have nukes?

No, I am arguing against nuclear proliferation. Especially a total psychopath like Saddam Hussein.

I’m arguing the U.S. is no less psychopathic and countries need protection from Western imperialism.

I have heard accounts from people who were in the presence of Saddam Hussein. He was a special type of psychopathic. You could feel you were in the presence of someone dangerous.

It’s like I’m talking to a character in Disco Elysium who has two preprogrammed responses and maybe a third if I forget to wear a shirt. Completely off in your own world huffing nasal spray.

My sincerest apologies, comrade. You see, I indeed do have a sinus infection and the therapy has involved huffing Flonase.
