Sadaam Hussain's Weapon Of Mass Destruction

The basis of the United States invading Iraq was because Sadaam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction. Before the invasion France, Germany and many other nations were against the invasion. The reason given is that the world didn’t believe that Iraq was a threat. They had not invaded another country and even in the last war they were not able to defend themselves against the United States. After the invasion reports came out that no weapons of mass destruction were found. At least none of Nuclear or missile type of weapons the American people and the world were expecting.  But Sadaam did have a weapon of mass destruction but the weapon would only destroy the United States and turn it into a third world country.  First the groundwork of oil exchanges, and how oil is purchased country to country and just a bit of economic lessons.  All oil transactions up to now were done in U.S. Dollar currency.  For that reason, United States printed up enough money to sell to other countries to buy their oil. This was exchanged of course in gold and then was put in storage in a bank until it was needed to purchase oil from OPEC. This is what gave the U.S. Dollar so much value, without U.S. Dollars you could not buy oil.  When the United States economy goes down they buy back some of the dollars or borrow from other countries.  Sadaam was under sanctions by the United States, Britain and the UN, the food for oil program after his disastrous invasion of Kuwait.  Sadaam devised a plan to ruin the United States by a weapon of mass destruction by targeting the U.S. economy and the value of the dollar.  Sadaam accepted Euros for oil from Italy, Germany and France, as well as Syria. There was no need for U.S. dollars for the transactions, which meant not only was it nearly impossible for the United States to track, but also it drove the value of the Euro up and the value of the U.S. Dollar down.  If this situation continued the economy of the United States would have suffered so bad it would have brought the United States to it’s knees economically turning this once powerful nation into a third world country equaled to Mexico and it’s peso. United States upon getting wind of this information and George Jr. already loosing millions of dollars on his oil leases in Kuwait in the previous Desert Storm war. That is right just before Sadaam invaded Kuwait, Bush Junior was jubilant that he had just purchased his first international oil lease. Just to lose millions on the deal because of Sadaam’s invasion into Kuwait. Could there have been any more bad blood between them?  So a campaign rage to invaded Iraq one of the reasons the threats of 9/11 were ignored and allowed to take place.  This tragedy gave Bush the perfect medium for an invasion into Iraq and to take Sadaam out of circulation but for good. It was also one of the reasons France and many other European countries refused to go against Iraq. Europe was prospering and so was the Euro. But was the removal of Sadaam the end of the threat? The fact that Condoleeza Rice is actively campaigning for U.S. support and trying to revive U.S. relations is directly related to the fact that Pandora’s box has been opened and has not been closed because Sadaam is out of power.  Europe has no reason to go back to the old system, which only benefits the United States. And United States has fallen deeper and deeper into debt; our economy is at a brink of destruction. So Sadaam was dangerous and his weapon of mass destruction was effective it is toppling the United States economy. There are transcripts about the investigation of the violations of the program on CNN’s website. There were no nuclear or missiles to be found but this was a bomb that will keep destroying the fabric of the U.S. economy unless the U.S. government re-evaluates it’s policies and how to recover with a much more adaptive economic plan.
