Yep.

blahblah blah Saddam was a bad man, after we supported him and took his $$.

I hate the hypocrisy.

Yep. We were just using him to fight the USSR. It was part of the Cold War strategy. It wasn’t done with regard to principle. At the time we knew very well that he was a cold hearted ruthless dictator. US interests were far more important. It was also a way of getting revenge against Iran for the hostage incident.
