| Saddam Hussein´s life story and relationship with the West remain shrouded in mystery. FRONTLINE investigates the formidable enemy the US helped to build – and later – tried to destroy. From the early days when he and the Baath Party were helped with Western military and financial support, to the late 1980s when several attempts to reduce him to size backfired and the Gulf War broke out, this film examines Saddam´s thirty – year governance of Iraq and his influence over the world order. | |||
