Saddam joke video

The Iraq war that broke out in 2003 was a battle with a disparity in weapons and equipment, and the United States almost carried out a dimensionality reduction attack on Iraq. In just over a month, the battle ended in the victory of the United States.

In the course of the war, in addition to the unexpected development of the war situation, perhaps the most interesting thing was the information minister of Iraq at that time-Sahaf.

Sahaf, the "world star" born in the war, was even the second most concerned person after Saddam Hussein at that time. His reputation is so great, not because of his official position, nor because of his great influence, but because of his famous mouth, which is really out of tune

Since the outbreak of the Iraq war, the Minister of Information has been dutifully playing a role in his post. He holds a press conference every day, and almost every day there are two kinds of press conferences, one is to lambaste the United States, and the other is to brag about the victory of the Iraqi army.

These two jobs are his own jobs, and we can't blame him, but he is too thick-skinned and full of lies, and the whole world regards him as a joke.

For example, in "Enemy at the Gates", when the artillery fire had already hit Baghdad, Sahaf still held a press conference calmly. Unfortunately, the gunfire happened to fall right next to the building of the Iraqi Ministry of Information, and suddenly there was a loud noise, but Sahaf was still able to say calmly: "I am not afraid at all. Baghdad is very safe and indestructible, so you don't have to be afraid. "

At the moment when American troops invaded the city, Sahaf still declared at the press conference, "We let them in on purpose in order to cut off their back roads and let them come back."

The helpless Al-Sahaf, a marginalized senior Iraqi official, made so many amazing remarks that people can't help wondering why he made such hilarious remarks.

In fact, this is also the helplessness of Sahaf. Knowing his awkward position in the Iraqi government, you may understand him.

As we all know, Iraq under Saddam Hussein was a dictatorship, and Saddam appointed almost all his cronies. At that time, almost all senior Iraqi government officials came from Saddam's hometown of tikrit. Sahaf is a case in point.

He was born in Baghdad, the capital of Iraq. He is a scholar with high cultural accomplishment, and the road to politics is even more difficult.

At first, he was just an ordinary announcer on Iraqi radio, and later he served as ambassador to Myanmar and Sweden. Finally, after the expiration of his term as ambassador to the United Nations, he finally reached the peak of his life and became the foreign minister of Iraq, but the good times did not last long. Because he offended Saddam's son, he was demoted to Minister of Information.

Since then, Sahaf's position in the Iraqi government has become more and more embarrassing. Marginalized, he especially wants to make achievements in his work and prove his talent. Excessive efforts are just bragging in our eyes.

Although he is a senior official of the government, he seems to know nothing about the recent situation of the government and the war. He can only beautify the broadcast according to the information given to him by Saddam Hussein and his cronies.

Is Sahaf the idol of George W. Bush? With the further development of the war situation, fewer and fewer people accompanied him to attend the press conference, and Sahaf began to become more and more lonely. At the beginning, senior government officials occasionally appeared at press conferences, but in the later period, the daily press conference became a one-man show of Sahaf.

Sahaf was a little flustered, but there was nothing he could do but blow the cow he blew out to the end.

After the American invasion of Baghdad, Al-Sahaf was the only senior official of the Iraqi government. He still cursed the shamelessness of the United States and the American invasion, but all this seemed like a joke.

The United States is well aware of Sahaf's position in the Iraqi government. In the eyes of Americans, he is not a senior official in Iraq, but a marginalized clown in the Iraqi government.

In the list of war criminals drawn up by the United States, Al-Sahaf is the only senior Iraqi government official who is not included in the list. After the war, after several simple trials, Sahaf was acquitted by the United States.

This is also a joke. The initiator of the war, then US President George W. Bush, who has been reviled by Sahaf, is still his fan. Bush once said in a mocking tone: "Sahaf is one of us. Some people say that we hired him to speak at the Iraqi Ministry of Information. We have to admit that every press conference held by Sahaf there is a classic. "

Conclusion: After Sahaf was released by the United States, he moved to Saudi Arabia and lived a very good life. Because of his value, many news media extended an olive branch to him and wanted him to participate in the talk show as a guest. Looking back at his colleagues who are also senior officials of the Iraqi government, maybe his happy life now comes from his marginalization in the government and a series of amazing words.
