Iraq and Iran should be amongst the wealthiest countries in the world. Instead the vast oil wealth of both has been squandered on wars, weapons and hatred.

Sadam wasnt that smart. They used him and when they didnt win, they turned against him.

Funny thing is today Iran literally owns all of Iraq. How time have changed.
