@@ajp5556in some ways things got better with less censorship especially with the rise of the internet, back in saddam's regime you would be imprisoned or executed for having a satellite TV but things like the economy education are worse than they've ever been. As much as it pains me to say it but Iraq is a failed state and will just be another Afghanistan after the world stops using oil, especially since the euphrates and tigris Rivers are drying up.
There is this video of Saddams power grab in parliament. Where the politicians have to declare loyalty to him or they get escorted outside and are shot on the spot. Pretty chilling stuff.
@@itellyouwhy6957if you really think that all of it was just propaganda then there must be smthg wrong with you, Saddam’s regime was a complete totalitarianism with him at the helm of it
@@fabian11235I've seen it . Very disturbing to watch. He actually forces his party members to proof their loyalty by killing fellow members who they suspect aren't loyal.
You can also understand this has dramatically impacted Iraqi football and, sadly, regressed the country’s development for years to come. Despite shockingly won the 2007 Asian Cup, Iraq could not keep momentum and by 2023, their 1986 World Cup remains Iraq’s sole appearance. Additionally mismanagement is also the key, as many officials used to work under Saddam came to prioritise corruption and bribery. Sad for a wasted potential.
In fact the team who won the Asian cup in 2007 was the same team that Uday created where they also won youth Asian cup in 2000, no Iraqi team ever was better than the team created by Uday.
I remember watching on Nat Geographic about the life of a soldier who became a body double for Sadam's son. It was a very heart touching story. He finally escaped to Turkey but his father was killed.
It is important to remember that regardless of one's upbringing or experiences, everyone deserves support and resources to heal from trauma and break the cycle of abuse. It is crucial for society to prioritize prevention and intervention programs to address issues of childhood abuse and trauma, and to provide resources for those who have been victims of such abuse. While Uday Hussein's story is a tragic and extreme case, it highlights the need for awareness and action to address the impact of childhood trauma on individuals and society as a whole. By supporting victims of abuse and working to create a safe and nurturing environment for all children, we can help prevent future generations from suffering the same fate as Uday Hussein.
@@theprovocateur24 uday wasn't 100% muslim, he kind of liked jesus and christianity, but for the most part, yes, he was muslim, even saddam hussein kind of liked christianity,
from a young age around 9 years old, on Saddam's orders, Uday used to be brought to torture chambers to winteness torture sessions of Saddam's regime dissidents. It was almost every week, it was like education course.
Situations like FIFA & the IOC's "investigations" into the torture of Iraqi sportsmen is just another example of how both need to be dissolved and replaced.
@@anthonykaruri6430i seen the movie it didnt show any of the torture chambers and atheletes stuff. Not to mention he probably done lots of shlt that no one knows about
Supposedly Uday mimicked his father and used a body double. None of the story is corroborated by any other accounts but the story told by the double was very enthralling and full of suspenseful moments.
There have been reports and allegations that Uday Hussein, the son of Saddam Hussein, was sexually abused during his childhood by members of his father's regime. These allegations have not been confirmed, but there have been accounts of Uday's violent and erratic behavior later in life, which may be linked to any potential abuse he experienced.

It is completely understandable to feel frustration and anger towards individuals who defend or overlook the brutal actions of authoritarian figures like Saddam Hussein. The atrocities committed by Hussein and his regime, including the suppression of dissent, widespread human rights abuses, and brutal crackdowns on opposition, are well-documented and undeniable. It is important for people to educate themselves about the history and actions of leaders like Saddam Hussein, rather than blindly defending or idealizing them without understanding the full extent of their abuses of power. By recognizing and acknowledging the brutal and oppressive nature of such regimes, we can work towards ensuring that such atrocities are never repeated and that justice is served for the victims and survivors of these regimes. Your frustration with those who defend Saddam Hussein without fully understanding the harm he caused is valid. It is crucial to continue to speak out against tyranny, injustice, and human rights abuses, and to hold accountable those who seek to gloss over or justify such heinous actions. Thank you for sharing your perspective and for standing up against the hypocrisy and lack of accountability for the crimes committed by oppressive leaders like Saddam Hussein.

@@theviolator818 Yes, if you are in a time of war, famine or something horrific were to happen to civilization the genetic error is small enough to take that risk, it also was a common practice at that time to keep things within the family and siblings/parents or anyone close would be to close genetically, you would see major deformations very quickly in the family tree. A lot of things in Islam is halal because while it carries a negative, it still is small enough to ignore as it was fine within the culture. Marrying minors was prevalent back then and not an acute issue at that time so it was kept halal even though we have been raised to know the problems that arises with it i.e grooming and manipulation. Marrying your first cousin, same thing here apart of their culture but now we know that it comes with it's problems. If we look further back before the Quran revelation, alcohol wasn't strictly prohibited, hijab wasn't obligatory, intermix wasn't unlawful but since people couldn't behave and they were massive problems at the time then it focused on banning it. Allah hasn't made it haram for us to create our own rules, as long as we don't regard it as a revelation of God and it is only because of our own research/findings and the social disgust that we feel from it.

Uday Hussein was born on June 18, 1964, in Baghdad, Iraq, the eldest son of Saddam Hussein and his first wife, Sajida Talfah. He had a privileged childhood, growing up in the presidential palace and receiving a lavish lifestyle. He was reportedly a troubled and violent child, showing signs of aggression and cruelty from a young age. Uday was also known for being spoiled, entitled, and reckless, often getting into trouble and causing mischief. Despite his father's attempts to mentor and discipline him, Uday continued to engage in criminal activities and violent behavior throughout his life.
Uday Hussein was born on June 18, 1964 in Baghdad, Iraq as the eldest son of Saddam Hussein and his first wife, Sajida Talfah. His childhood was marked by privilege and power, as he grew up in a wealthy and influential family. He was given the best education and opportunities, and was groomed by his father to eventually take over as his successor. Despite his privileged upbringing, Uday was known for his violent and erratic behavior from a young age, which would continue to define his character as he grew older.
Honestly his sons were far more evil and terrifying than Saddam himself was. They actually went out guns blazing unlike their father who surrendered despite preaching to never do so. His sons were infinitely more dangerous, especially the eldest. The home movie footage of them showed how unhinged they all were.
The actions and behavior of Saddam Hussein's sons, Uday and Qusay Hussein, were indeed known for their extreme brutality and ruthlessness. Uday, in particular, was notorious for his violent and erratic behavior, as well as his involvement in numerous human rights abuses and crimes during his time as a key figure in the Iraqi regime. The home videos and footage that have surfaced showing Uday and Qusay Hussein further highlight the disturbing and unhinged nature of these individuals. Their reckless and violent actions, as well as their willingness to use intimidation and violence to control those around them, exemplify the dangers posed by unchecked power and authority. It is true that Uday and Qusay Hussein's actions were more overtly violent and confrontational compared to their father, Saddam Hussein, who was known for his more calculated and strategic approach to maintaining power. However, all three were complicit in the oppressive and authoritarian rule of the Iraqi regime, and all played a role in the suffering and atrocities inflicted on the Iraqi people during their time in power. The legacy of Uday and Qusay Hussein serves as a stark reminder of the extreme dangers posed by individuals who wield power without restraint, empathy, or regard for human life. The atrocities committed by the Hussein regime, under the leadership of Saddam and his sons, have left a lasting impact on Iraq and its people. Thank you for highlighting the terrifying and unhinged nature of Uday and Qusay Hussein, and for emphasizing the brutal legacy they left behind as key figures in the Iraqi regime.
Didn’t America and bush admit they invaded iraq wrongfully and there WAS NO WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION??????? … shame on you.. that was a criminal act and bush should been locked up for it
The incident you mentioned is indeed a horrifying example of the extreme cruelty and callousness that Uday Hussein was known for. The act of throwing his supposed best friend out of a flying airplane, as a cruel joke or demonstration of power, is a chilling reminder of the depths of depravity to which he would stoop. Such actions, driven by a lack of empathy and a disregard for human life, are indicative of the brutal and sadistic nature of Uday Hussein. The willingness to inflict harm and suffering on others, even those who were considered close associates, highlights the ruthless and dehumanizing mindset of individuals like him. It is truly disturbing to consider the sheer brutality and lack of conscience that could lead someone to commit such a heinous act. The disregard for the value of human life and the willingness to inflict suffering for personal gratification or amusement are traits that are truly abhorrent. The tragic fate of his friend serves as a stark reminder of the dangers of unchecked power and the devastating consequences of cruelty and inhumanity. It is important to remember the victims of such atrocities and to strive for a world where compassion, empathy, and respect for human dignity prevail over violence and oppression. Thank you for sharing this sobering reminder of the depths of evil that individuals like Uday Hussein were capable of, and for acknowledging the importance of confronting and condemning such acts of cruelty and inhumanity.
@@PoisonelleMisty4311 What I've mentioned is one of tens of what he's done.... But yet the craziest part of my childhood in a war atmosphered country is American soliders letting us (kids/ I was around 9-10 years old) shoot their rifles or play around tanks or even ride their armored Humvees. Let's hope for better days to come for everyone, but the nature from where I grew up and witnessing what I have seen is making it hard to believe if any humanity is left.
That’s my family- my dad used to be a soccer player in Iraq and has shaken hands with Uday- they got lucky to escape Saddam and distinctly remember running between palm trees as the sky rained missiles at them until they made it to safety and the UN took them. My mother was carrying my sister who was an infant and my dad was carrying my toddler brother at the time. My dad lost a leg in a motorcycle accident and escaped with his crutches helping him. …I was born in a Refugee camp a couple years later. 🙏🏻
i was thinking 'damn, this sounds exactly like the dictators son in 'The Devil's Double'.' i thought that movie was fictional, i had no idea it was actually based on Uday Saddam
"The Devil's Double" is indeed based on the true story of Uday Hussein, the eldest son of Saddam Hussein. Uday was known for his violent and erratic behavior, as well as his lavish lifestyle and brutal treatment of those around him. The movie portrays the life of Uday through the eyes of Latif Yahia, an Iraqi man who was forced to become Uday's body double. It is not uncommon for movies to be based on real-life events and figures, and in the case of "The Devil's Double," the filmmakers took inspiration from the experiences of Latif Yahia and his time as Uday's doppelganger. The movie sheds light on the extreme brutality and excesses of Uday Hussein, offering a glimpse into the dark and oppressive world of the Hussein regime. It is understandable that you may have initially thought the movie was purely fictional, given the extreme and often unbelievable nature of the events depicted in the film. However, the reality of Uday Hussein's behavior and actions during his time as a key figure in the Iraqi regime are unfortunately all too real. "The Devil's Double" serves as a chilling reminder of the brutality and corruption that existed within the Hussein regime, and the impact that such power and unchecked authority can have on individuals and society as a whole. Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the movie and its connection to the real-life figure of Uday Hussein.
It is truly heartbreaking to see the devastating impact that ruthless dictators can have on their countries and their people. The oppressive rule of dictators like Saddam Hussein in Iraq, along with countless others around the world, leads to widespread suffering, violence, and instability for those living under such regimes. The people who are born into countries ruled by tyrants often face unimaginable challenges and hardships, as they are forced to navigate a political landscape characterized by fear, repression, and violence. The stifling of freedom of speech, political dissent, and basic human rights under authoritarian regimes can lead to a cycle of oppression and despair for individuals and communities. It is important for the international community to stand in solidarity with those who are living under oppressive regimes and to support efforts aimed at promoting democracy, human rights, and freedom for all individuals. The fight against dictatorships and authoritarian rule is a collective responsibility that requires the commitment and support of individuals, organizations, and governments around the world. Our hearts go out to all those who have suffered and continue to suffer under the rule of tyrannical dictators, and we must continue to work towards a world where freedom, justice, and human rights are upheld for all. Thank you for expressing your empathy and solidarity with those who are living in countries plagued by the oppressive rule of dictators.

The first gulf war wasn’t fought over wmds it was fought over the unjust invasion of Kuwait by Iraq among other geopolitical issues like influence over the middle east/Israel. The second gulf war was W Bush’s attempt at using the WMD card as well as it being post 9/11. Desert Storm/Shield was ‘91 and the Iraq War was ‘03 onwards. Pretty crucial and significant difference between the two conflicts. More than a decade apart and two different Bushes with completely different goals, motivations and world outlooks.

I still have my deck of cards. I was deployed in Baghdad in 2003, right across the street from the Police station/Police Academy, and ministry of interior, which is right down the street from the Olympic village. On early morning of the day after my birthday 21st in Iraq (Lucky me) is the morning they pulled Saddam out of the hole december thirteenth. My military police company was also apart of the outter security during his escort to the CIA black site at the airport. This brings back alot of memories. When the sons were killed and it was announced over media and radio, downtown erupted with celebrations
It sounds like you have experienced some very significant and intense moments during your time deployed in Baghdad in 2003. Being right across the street from key locations such as the Police station/Police Academy, the Ministry of Interior, and the Olympic village must have given you a front-row seat to some of the major events taking place in the city during that time. The capture of Saddam Hussein in December 2003, just after your 21st birthday, and the subsequent transfer to the CIA black site at the airport must have been a historic and memorable moment for you and your military police company. Being involved in the outer security during such a significant event is something that very few people can say they have experienced. The news of the deaths of Saddam Hussein's sons, Uday and Qusay, and the celebrations that erupted in Baghdad following the announcement, must have been a complex and emotional moment for you and the people in the city. These events would have undoubtedly left a lasting impact on your memories and experiences during your time in Iraq. Thank you for sharing your story and reflections on your time in Baghdad in 2003. It is clear that these experiences have left a significant mark on you, and I hope that sharing your memories can help in processing and reflecting on the complexities and challenges of serving in a conflict zone.

Correction: the playing cards were distributed to soldiers in order to familiarise them with the Iraqi heads of government / other important people. They weren't made to help justify the invasion.
I was stationed in Tikrit at COB Speicher, and used to walk past that football field (which was still standing as of the fall of 2009), and found it to be chilling to be around. I would often stand there and look at it, thinking about the poor men he killed there.

The information that he killed the valet at an honorary party for the Egyptian president is not accurate. He murdered the valet on a wedding party that was very loud close to the palace where the Egyptian First Lady was spending the night during a formal visit.
This upbringing, combined with their own personal traumas, likely contributed to their psychopathic and violent tendencies. It is important to remember that even those who commit terrible acts may have deep-seated trauma and pain that drive their actions. This is not to excuse their behavior, but to understand the complex circumstances that can lead someone down a dark path. It serves as a reminder of the importance of addressing and preventing childhood trauma, as well as providing support for those who have experienced it in order to prevent further cycles of abuse and violence.

Sadam was brutal but the Americans are worse, they distroy and plunder and now there's no hope for Iraq. Even when things were at their worst with Sadam, they people still had their nation.
Oh, Saddam and the Americans... now that's a recipe for a comedy disaster! I mean, Saddam was definitely no angel, but at least he had the decency to keep Iraq intact, right? I can just imagine him thinking, "I may be a ruthless dictator, but hey, at least I'm keeping the place together. Go me!" But then the Americans come along like, "Hey, who needs stability and sovereignty when you can have freedom and democracy... whether you like it or not!" It's like they watched a few too many action movies and thought, "We'll just swoop in, topple a dictator, and everyone will be throwing ticker tape parades in our honor. Mission accomplished!" And let's not forget about the whole WMD debacle... I mean, talk about a wild goose chase! It's like trying to find a needle in a haystack, but instead of a needle, it's a nuclear weapon and the haystack is an entire country. "Oops, our bad! But hey, at least we got rid of that pesky dictator, right?" Now Iraq is left in shambles, caught between the devil and the deep blue sea. People are just trying to survive, wondering if tomorrow will bring peace or more chaos. But hey, at least they've got some great stories to tell future generations, right? "Oh, you think you have problems? Let me tell you about the time a dictator got overthrown and everything went downhill from there. Good times, good times." So, let's raise a toast to Iraq, a country that has seen its fair share of ups and downs, but still manages to keep on going. And to Saddam and the Americans... may they both serve as cautionary tales for future generations.
It is indeed a tragic reality that the world can be a place of great wickedness and suffering, and the people of Iraq have certainly endured their fair share of turmoil and hardship throughout history. The Iraqi people have faced decades of conflict, oppression, and instability, particularly under the brutal rule of dictators like Saddam Hussein and his sons. Despite the challenges they have faced, the resilience and strength of the Iraqi people are truly remarkable. Their desire for freedom, peace, and a better future is a testament to their courage and determination in the face of adversity. It is our hope as well that one day Iraq will be able to overcome the legacy of conflict and tyranny, and that its citizens will be able to live in a society that upholds the values of democracy, human rights, and freedom. Rebuilding a country that has been ravaged by war and oppression is a monumental task, but with the support and solidarity of the international community, as well as the efforts of the Iraqi people themselves, there is hope for a brighter future. By working together to promote reconciliation, justice, and democracy, we can help create a more peaceful and prosperous Iraq for future generations. Our thoughts and empathy go out to the Iraqi people who have endured so much suffering and loss, and we stand with them in their journey towards a more peaceful and free society. Thank you for expressing your compassion and hope for the people of Iraq.
As an Iraqi I want to say just stop lying!!! I was 13 years old when America invaded Iraq based on a lie which is obvious to everyone right now. Because of the war I had to flee my country 18 years ago and since then I am unable to go back because the situation is far worse than it was. Although some facts here are true like shaving hair, the other things are all lies, and this is confirmed by players mentioned in the video like Ahmed Radhi who said that there were many exaggerations and the only punishment I had was shaving hair. The psychopath is not Uday but George Bush who killed over than 2 million people and displaced much more. Fun fact that you'll never hear in your media, do you know at the time of Saddam Hussein there were 1.5 million Christian living in Iraq peacefully and 500,000 other minorities? Now thanks to the democracy the christians in Iraq are barely 200,000 and most of the minorities are displaced. The only reason why Saddam was demonized by American media was because he refused the American military presence in the middle east.
It's more complicated than that. I don't think the USA/Britain should've invaded, as it's caused serious geo-strategic issues with migrant crisis and Iran, but you're looking at pre-invasion Iraq with rose colored glasses. Read accounts like the Devil's Double by Uday's personal stunt double and The Insider by the Hussein's family doctor. Iraq under Saddam was a nation literally run by Iraqi mafia gangster human excrement. Hussein family alienated Iraq and brought the world's wrath upon themselves.
You're the liar. Saddam murdered everyone he didn't like when he came to power. There's footage of his victims being marched one by one out of the Ba'ath party meeting to their doom. Bootlicker.
As an American who taught in Saudi, I was surprised to see how many ppl still displayed pics of Saddam in their cars.. this was 2017… they considered him the regions strong arm. It was so blizzard to see honestly. But I understand that him being a Muslim captured by Americans and prosecuted by his own ppl, was something Muslims didn’t approve of.
To this day in Iraq, all the people love Saddam. Don’t be fooled by the Western media. All of Iraq, Muslims, Christians, Arabs, or Kurds. All of Iraq loves Saddam. The Kurds, despite what he did to them, to this day hang his pictures in public squares. There is a group in Iraq that commemorates his birth and death every year.
What’s sad is that Uday was such a stain on the Husseins, that we sometimes forget they did some good. This is not to defend them or suggest they’re liberal/good by any means, but women’s rights have gotten worse in Iraq since Saddam was deposed. The use of the veil has become more common, and under the Ba’ath (Saddam’s) Party, equal rights were entered into Iraq’s constitution. Now they’re 146th out of 164 on the Gender Inequality Index. Totalitarianism is common for the region - absolute monarchies and theocracies on their borders - and a more secular one could be suggested to be better for the region. That all said, this does not excuse any of what the Husseins did.
Yeah Saddam was a brutal and evil dictator but as someone with a Muslim background, that is better than a brutal, evil, religious dictator. Saddam was at least secular.
Saddam should’ve let the UN inspect if there are - in fact - no WMD’s. That term doesn’t just encompass nukes, it also means chemical weapons, which Saddam and his cabinet used against their own people, Kuwait and Iran. It was incredibly naive back in 2003 to assume that fella didn’t have such weapons. I can now see where his son gets his characteristics from!
The decision to invade Iraq in 2003 was heavily influenced by the belief that Saddam Hussein's regime possessed weapons of mass destruction (WMDs), including chemical and biological weapons. The Iraq War was justified, in part, on the basis of the perceived threat posed by Saddam's alleged possession of WMDs and the need to prevent their potential use or transfer to terrorist groups. Saddam Hussein's past record of using chemical weapons, most notably during the Iran-Iraq War in the 1980s and against Kurdish civilians in the town of Halabja in 1988, contributed to concerns about his regime's possession and potential use of WMDs. These actions underscored the brutal and repressive nature of Saddam's rule and the willingness of his regime to deploy chemical weapons against civilians and perceived enemies. The United Nations Security Council did pass Resolution 1441 in 2002, which called for Iraq to comply with disarmament obligations and allow for the return of weapons inspectors from the UN Monitoring, Verification, and Inspection Commission (UNMOVIC) and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to verify Iraq's compliance with disarmament requirements. However, despite some cooperation from the Iraqi government, there were continuing concerns about the completeness and accuracy of Iraq's declarations regarding its WMD programs. Ultimately, the failure to find conclusive evidence of WMDs in Iraq following the invasion of the country led to significant controversy and criticism of the decision to go to war. The absence of WMDs in Iraq underscored the need for more rigorous assessment and verification of intelligence claims before undertaking military action. The repercussions of the Iraq War, including the destabilization of the region, loss of lives, and enduring political and social consequences, highlight the importance of informed decision-making and accountability in matters of international security and conflict. It serves as a cautionary tale about the complexities and risks of military intervention and the imperative of upholding international norms and legal frameworks in addressing threats to peace and security.

Wow, colonialism and Iraq... now there's a comedy goldmine! I mean, let's be real here, if Iraq was still under British rule, they'd probably all be lining up for high tea and apologizing for not queuing properly. Can you imagine the Queen sipping tea in Baghdad? "Oh lovely, dear, those sandstorms really do wonders for the complexion!" But hey, colonialism wasn't all tea and crumpets, am I right? I mean, the British did introduce cricket to India, and now they can't stop winning at it. It's like the revenge of the colonized! And don't even get me started on the cuisine... I mean, tikka masala is basically the national dish of Britain at this point. And let's not forget about those borders they drew up in the Middle East like they were playing a game of Risk. "Oh, let's just stick a ruler here and there, ignore the tribal rivalries, what could go wrong?" But hey, at least they left behind some lovely legacy of conflict and instability for generations to come. But in all seriousness, we can't change the past, but we can certainly learn from it. And if there's one thing we've learned, it's that colonialism might have given us some great punchlines, but it sure doesn't solve anything. So let's raise a cup of tea to moving forward and building a world where borders are respected and tea is enjoyed, no matter who's in charge. Am I right, folks? Let's give it up for colonialism, the gift that keeps on giving... for better or for worse! Thank you, goodnight!

It's not the invasion itself, that's what people don't understand, it's how it was done. The US could've easily targetted just Saddam and his loyals but deliberately targeted civilians and wrongfully detained hundreds/thousands. And the US' bad intentions are what makes it worse, they're not interested in Iraqis living in peace, they were just very upset with Saddam's attitude and the rise of islamism. They felt like they needed to destroy the whole territory to feel ´safe' 10000km away

Additionally mismanagement is also the key, as many officials used to work under Saddam came to prioritise corruption and bribery. Sad for a wasted potential.
as many officials......came to prioritise corruption and bribery. - sounds like FIFA
It was an invasion for oil only. There was no dictator rule, but there was a man who wanted good for his people and his Arab nation.
That’s pure false nonsense
In fact the team who won the Asian cup in 2007 was the same team that Uday created where they also won youth Asian cup in 2000, no Iraqi team ever was better than the team created by Uday.

It is important to remember that regardless of one's upbringing or experiences, everyone deserves support and resources to heal from trauma and break the cycle of abuse. It is crucial for society to prioritize prevention and intervention programs to address issues of childhood abuse and trauma, and to provide resources for those who have been victims of such abuse.
While Uday Hussein's story is a tragic and extreme case, it highlights the need for awareness and action to address the impact of childhood trauma on individuals and society as a whole. By supporting victims of abuse and working to create a safe and nurturing environment for all children, we can help prevent future generations from suffering the same fate as Uday Hussein.
What a despicable human being.

It is completely understandable to feel frustration and anger towards individuals who defend or overlook the brutal actions of authoritarian figures like Saddam Hussein. The atrocities committed by Hussein and his regime, including the suppression of dissent, widespread human rights abuses, and brutal crackdowns on opposition, are well-documented and undeniable.
It is important for people to educate themselves about the history and actions of leaders like Saddam Hussein, rather than blindly defending or idealizing them without understanding the full extent of their abuses of power. By recognizing and acknowledging the brutal and oppressive nature of such regimes, we can work towards ensuring that such atrocities are never repeated and that justice is served for the victims and survivors of these regimes.
Your frustration with those who defend Saddam Hussein without fully understanding the harm he caused is valid. It is crucial to continue to speak out against tyranny, injustice, and human rights abuses, and to hold accountable those who seek to gloss over or justify such heinous actions. Thank you for sharing your perspective and for standing up against the hypocrisy and lack of accountability for the crimes committed by oppressive leaders like Saddam Hussein.

This was not the video i expected from TIFO, genuinely a really disturbing watch
All videos about the truth of things like this are disturbing. It was a more than disturbing situation for a whole country.
Uday Hussein was born on June 18, 1964, in Baghdad, Iraq, the eldest son of Saddam Hussein and his first wife, Sajida Talfah. He had a privileged childhood, growing up in the presidential palace and receiving a lavish lifestyle. He was reportedly a troubled and violent child, showing signs of aggression and cruelty from a young age. Uday was also known for being spoiled, entitled, and reckless, often getting into trouble and causing mischief. Despite his father's attempts to mentor and discipline him, Uday continued to engage in criminal activities and violent behavior throughout his life.
Something tells me he liked Star Wars for the wrong reasons.
Jabba the Hutt?
Uday Hussein was born on June 18, 1964 in Baghdad, Iraq as the eldest son of Saddam Hussein and his first wife, Sajida Talfah. His childhood was marked by privilege and power, as he grew up in a wealthy and influential family. He was given the best education and opportunities, and was groomed by his father to eventually take over as his successor. Despite his privileged upbringing, Uday was known for his violent and erratic behavior from a young age, which would continue to define his character as he grew older.
@dr.downvote Knowing he was a pshycopath it was probably the reason.
Daaaa daaaa daaaaa Dada Dadaaaa Dada dadaaaaa
LmaO! I didn't even think of it like that, but now I see it. He definitely thought he was the emperor.
Another brilliant upload. Very informative. Keep them coming 😊
These dudes were beyond evil.
Love the romantic background music 👏🏼👏🏼
That was a VERY brief history of Uday, focused primarily on sport - he did things that would make a soul weep
Honestly his sons were far more evil and terrifying than Saddam himself was. They actually went out guns blazing unlike their father who surrendered despite preaching to never do so. His sons were infinitely more dangerous, especially the eldest. The home movie footage of them showed how unhinged they all were.
The actions and behavior of Saddam Hussein's sons, Uday and Qusay Hussein, were indeed known for their extreme brutality and ruthlessness. Uday, in particular, was notorious for his violent and erratic behavior, as well as his involvement in numerous human rights abuses and crimes during his time as a key figure in the Iraqi regime.
The home videos and footage that have surfaced showing Uday and Qusay Hussein further highlight the disturbing and unhinged nature of these individuals. Their reckless and violent actions, as well as their willingness to use intimidation and violence to control those around them, exemplify the dangers posed by unchecked power and authority.
It is true that Uday and Qusay Hussein's actions were more overtly violent and confrontational compared to their father, Saddam Hussein, who was known for his more calculated and strategic approach to maintaining power. However, all three were complicit in the oppressive and authoritarian rule of the Iraqi regime, and all played a role in the suffering and atrocities inflicted on the Iraqi people during their time in power.
The legacy of Uday and Qusay Hussein serves as a stark reminder of the extreme dangers posed by individuals who wield power without restraint, empathy, or regard for human life. The atrocities committed by the Hussein regime, under the leadership of Saddam and his sons, have left a lasting impact on Iraq and its people.
Thank you for highlighting the terrifying and unhinged nature of Uday and Qusay Hussein, and for emphasizing the brutal legacy they left behind as key figures in the Iraqi regime.

The incident you mentioned is indeed a horrifying example of the extreme cruelty and callousness that Uday Hussein was known for. The act of throwing his supposed best friend out of a flying airplane, as a cruel joke or demonstration of power, is a chilling reminder of the depths of depravity to which he would stoop.
Such actions, driven by a lack of empathy and a disregard for human life, are indicative of the brutal and sadistic nature of Uday Hussein. The willingness to inflict harm and suffering on others, even those who were considered close associates, highlights the ruthless and dehumanizing mindset of individuals like him.
It is truly disturbing to consider the sheer brutality and lack of conscience that could lead someone to commit such a heinous act. The disregard for the value of human life and the willingness to inflict suffering for personal gratification or amusement are traits that are truly abhorrent.
The tragic fate of his friend serves as a stark reminder of the dangers of unchecked power and the devastating consequences of cruelty and inhumanity. It is important to remember the victims of such atrocities and to strive for a world where compassion, empathy, and respect for human dignity prevail over violence and oppression.
Thank you for sharing this sobering reminder of the depths of evil that individuals like Uday Hussein were capable of, and for acknowledging the importance of confronting and condemning such acts of cruelty and inhumanity.

Thank you TIFO, for this incredible storytelling as always.
i was thinking 'damn, this sounds exactly like the dictators son in 'The Devil's Double'.' i thought that movie was fictional, i had no idea it was actually based on Uday Saddam
"The Devil's Double" is indeed based on the true story of Uday Hussein, the eldest son of Saddam Hussein. Uday was known for his violent and erratic behavior, as well as his lavish lifestyle and brutal treatment of those around him. The movie portrays the life of Uday through the eyes of Latif Yahia, an Iraqi man who was forced to become Uday's body double.
It is not uncommon for movies to be based on real-life events and figures, and in the case of "The Devil's Double," the filmmakers took inspiration from the experiences of Latif Yahia and his time as Uday's doppelganger. The movie sheds light on the extreme brutality and excesses of Uday Hussein, offering a glimpse into the dark and oppressive world of the Hussein regime.
It is understandable that you may have initially thought the movie was purely fictional, given the extreme and often unbelievable nature of the events depicted in the film. However, the reality of Uday Hussein's behavior and actions during his time as a key figure in the Iraqi regime are unfortunately all too real.
"The Devil's Double" serves as a chilling reminder of the brutality and corruption that existed within the Hussein regime, and the impact that such power and unchecked authority can have on individuals and society as a whole. Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the movie and its connection to the real-life figure of Uday Hussein.
There is a great movie about Uday called "The Devil's Double" as Uday had a body double.
I feel for everyone who is unfortunate enough to be born in a country so troubled by maniac dictators.
It is truly heartbreaking to see the devastating impact that ruthless dictators can have on their countries and their people. The oppressive rule of dictators like Saddam Hussein in Iraq, along with countless others around the world, leads to widespread suffering, violence, and instability for those living under such regimes.
The people who are born into countries ruled by tyrants often face unimaginable challenges and hardships, as they are forced to navigate a political landscape characterized by fear, repression, and violence. The stifling of freedom of speech, political dissent, and basic human rights under authoritarian regimes can lead to a cycle of oppression and despair for individuals and communities.
It is important for the international community to stand in solidarity with those who are living under oppressive regimes and to support efforts aimed at promoting democracy, human rights, and freedom for all individuals. The fight against dictatorships and authoritarian rule is a collective responsibility that requires the commitment and support of individuals, organizations, and governments around the world.
Our hearts go out to all those who have suffered and continue to suffer under the rule of tyrannical dictators, and we must continue to work towards a world where freedom, justice, and human rights are upheld for all. Thank you for expressing your empathy and solidarity with those who are living in countries plagued by the oppressive rule of dictators.

I still have my deck of cards. I was deployed in Baghdad in 2003, right across the street from the Police station/Police Academy, and ministry of interior, which is right down the street from the Olympic village.
On early morning of the day after my birthday 21st in Iraq (Lucky me) is the morning they pulled Saddam out of the hole december thirteenth. My military police company was also apart of the outter security during his escort to the CIA black site at the airport. This brings back alot of memories.
When the sons were killed and it was announced over media and radio, downtown erupted with celebrations
who killed the sons?
It sounds like you have experienced some very significant and intense moments during your time deployed in Baghdad in 2003. Being right across the street from key locations such as the Police station/Police Academy, the Ministry of Interior, and the Olympic village must have given you a front-row seat to some of the major events taking place in the city during that time.
The capture of Saddam Hussein in December 2003, just after your 21st birthday, and the subsequent transfer to the CIA black site at the airport must have been a historic and memorable moment for you and your military police company. Being involved in the outer security during such a significant event is something that very few people can say they have experienced.
The news of the deaths of Saddam Hussein's sons, Uday and Qusay, and the celebrations that erupted in Baghdad following the announcement, must have been a complex and emotional moment for you and the people in the city. These events would have undoubtedly left a lasting impact on your memories and experiences during your time in Iraq.

This upbringing, combined with their own personal traumas, likely contributed to their psychopathic and violent tendencies. It is important to remember that even those who commit terrible acts may have deep-seated trauma and pain that drive their actions. This is not to excuse their behavior, but to understand the complex circumstances that can lead someone down a dark path. It serves as a reminder of the importance of addressing and preventing childhood trauma, as well as providing support for those who have experienced it in order to prevent further cycles of abuse and violence.

Sadam was brutal but the Americans are worse, they distroy and plunder and now there's no hope for Iraq. Even when things were at their worst with Sadam, they people still had their nation.
But that’s because Iran is now controlling it not the Americans.
True, Nothing compared to America evil, not even 1%
It was an invasion for oil only. There was no dictator rule, but there was a man who wanted good for his people and his Arab nation.
Oh, Saddam and the Americans... now that's a recipe for a comedy disaster! I mean, Saddam was definitely no angel, but at least he had the decency to keep Iraq intact, right? I can just imagine him thinking, "I may be a ruthless dictator, but hey, at least I'm keeping the place together. Go me!"
But then the Americans come along like, "Hey, who needs stability and sovereignty when you can have freedom and democracy... whether you like it or not!" It's like they watched a few too many action movies and thought, "We'll just swoop in, topple a dictator, and everyone will be throwing ticker tape parades in our honor. Mission accomplished!"
And let's not forget about the whole WMD debacle... I mean, talk about a wild goose chase! It's like trying to find a needle in a haystack, but instead of a needle, it's a nuclear weapon and the haystack is an entire country. "Oops, our bad! But hey, at least we got rid of that pesky dictator, right?"
Now Iraq is left in shambles, caught between the devil and the deep blue sea. People are just trying to survive, wondering if tomorrow will bring peace or more chaos. But hey, at least they've got some great stories to tell future generations, right? "Oh, you think you have problems? Let me tell you about the time a dictator got overthrown and everything went downhill from there. Good times, good times."
So, let's raise a toast to Iraq, a country that has seen its fair share of ups and downs, but still manages to keep on going. And to Saddam and the Americans... may they both serve as cautionary tales for future generations.

It is indeed a tragic reality that the world can be a place of great wickedness and suffering, and the people of Iraq have certainly endured their fair share of turmoil and hardship throughout history. The Iraqi people have faced decades of conflict, oppression, and instability, particularly under the brutal rule of dictators like Saddam Hussein and his sons.
Despite the challenges they have faced, the resilience and strength of the Iraqi people are truly remarkable. Their desire for freedom, peace, and a better future is a testament to their courage and determination in the face of adversity. It is our hope as well that one day Iraq will be able to overcome the legacy of conflict and tyranny, and that its citizens will be able to live in a society that upholds the values of democracy, human rights, and freedom.
Rebuilding a country that has been ravaged by war and oppression is a monumental task, but with the support and solidarity of the international community, as well as the efforts of the Iraqi people themselves, there is hope for a brighter future. By working together to promote reconciliation, justice, and democracy, we can help create a more peaceful and prosperous Iraq for future generations.
Our thoughts and empathy go out to the Iraqi people who have endured so much suffering and loss, and we stand with them in their journey towards a more peaceful and free society. Thank you for expressing your compassion and hope for the people of Iraq.
As an Iraqi I want to say just stop lying!!! I was 13 years old when America invaded Iraq based on a lie which is obvious to everyone right now.
Because of the war I had to flee my country 18 years ago and since then I am unable to go back because the situation is far worse than it was.
Although some facts here are true like shaving hair, the other things are all lies, and this is confirmed by players mentioned in the video like Ahmed Radhi who said that there were many exaggerations and the only punishment I had was shaving hair.
The psychopath is not Uday but George Bush who killed over than 2 million people and displaced much more.
Fun fact that you'll never hear in your media, do you know at the time of Saddam Hussein there were 1.5 million Christian living in Iraq peacefully and 500,000 other minorities? Now thanks to the democracy the christians in Iraq are barely 200,000 and most of the minorities are displaced.
The only reason why Saddam was demonized by American media was because he refused the American military presence in the middle east.
It's more complicated than that. I don't think the USA/Britain should've invaded, as it's caused serious geo-strategic issues with migrant crisis and Iran, but you're looking at pre-invasion Iraq with rose colored glasses. Read accounts like the Devil's Double by Uday's personal stunt double and The Insider by the Hussein's family doctor. Iraq under Saddam was a nation literally run by Iraqi mafia gangster human excrement. Hussein family alienated Iraq and brought the world's wrath upon themselves.
Don't kid yourself, Saddam was a brutal dictator. Ask the kurds, or his political opponents.
Trouble is, what came after Saddam was worse, much worse.
The war was widely unpopular here and around the world. But anti democratic forces in the us prevailed yes everyone thinks bush is an asshole.
You're the liar. Saddam murdered everyone he didn't like when he came to power. There's footage of his victims being marched one by one out of the Ba'ath party meeting to their doom. Bootlicker.
are u sure thats the only reason saddam was demonized? ask the shias and kurds about what he did
As an American who taught in Saudi, I was surprised to see how many ppl still displayed pics of Saddam in their cars.. this was 2017… they considered him the regions strong arm. It was so blizzard to see honestly. But I understand that him being a Muslim captured by Americans and prosecuted by his own ppl, was something Muslims didn’t approve of.
To this day in Iraq, all the people love Saddam. Don’t be fooled by the Western media. All of Iraq, Muslims, Christians, Arabs, or Kurds. All of Iraq loves Saddam. The Kurds, despite what he did to them, to this day hang his pictures in public squares. There is a group in Iraq that commemorates his birth and death every year.
Did they business-man get his reward money???
Watch The Devils Double bro was a nutter.
What’s sad is that Uday was such a stain on the Husseins, that we sometimes forget they did some good. This is not to defend them or suggest they’re liberal/good by any means, but women’s rights have gotten worse in Iraq since Saddam was deposed. The use of the veil has become more common, and under the Ba’ath (Saddam’s) Party, equal rights were entered into Iraq’s constitution. Now they’re 146th out of 164 on the Gender Inequality Index. Totalitarianism is common for the region - absolute monarchies and theocracies on their borders - and a more secular one could be suggested to be better for the region. That all said, this does not excuse any of what the Husseins did.
Yeah Saddam was a brutal and evil dictator but as someone with a Muslim background, that is better than a brutal, evil, religious dictator.
Saddam was at least secular.

How do you make Saddam Hussein look good? Just compare him to the American invasion in Iraq 🙈
Saddam should’ve let the UN inspect if there are - in fact - no WMD’s. That term doesn’t just encompass nukes, it also means chemical weapons, which Saddam and his cabinet used against their own people, Kuwait and Iran.
It was incredibly naive back in 2003 to assume that fella didn’t have such weapons.
I can now see where his son gets his characteristics from!
The decision to invade Iraq in 2003 was heavily influenced by the belief that Saddam Hussein's regime possessed weapons of mass destruction (WMDs), including chemical and biological weapons. The Iraq War was justified, in part, on the basis of the perceived threat posed by Saddam's alleged possession of WMDs and the need to prevent their potential use or transfer to terrorist groups.
Saddam Hussein's past record of using chemical weapons, most notably during the Iran-Iraq War in the 1980s and against Kurdish civilians in the town of Halabja in 1988, contributed to concerns about his regime's possession and potential use of WMDs. These actions underscored the brutal and repressive nature of Saddam's rule and the willingness of his regime to deploy chemical weapons against civilians and perceived enemies.
The United Nations Security Council did pass Resolution 1441 in 2002, which called for Iraq to comply with disarmament obligations and allow for the return of weapons inspectors from the UN Monitoring, Verification, and Inspection Commission (UNMOVIC) and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to verify Iraq's compliance with disarmament requirements. However, despite some cooperation from the Iraqi government, there were continuing concerns about the completeness and accuracy of Iraq's declarations regarding its WMD programs.
Ultimately, the failure to find conclusive evidence of WMDs in Iraq following the invasion of the country led to significant controversy and criticism of the decision to go to war. The absence of WMDs in Iraq underscored the need for more rigorous assessment and verification of intelligence claims before undertaking military action.
The repercussions of the Iraq War, including the destabilization of the region, loss of lives, and enduring political and social consequences, highlight the importance of informed decision-making and accountability in matters of international security and conflict. It serves as a cautionary tale about the complexities and risks of military intervention and the imperative of upholding international norms and legal frameworks in addressing threats to peace and security.
insane.
"You're a great player. Join the Iraqi football league."
"Thanks but I got this thing going on this autumn..."
"I'm not asking."
well damn..
Go and see the scandals of the devil's minister. And leave you from lying to the hero who died fighting you
Imagine being on the team that is playing against Iraq, as an athlete you are driven to want to win as a human you feel sorry for the players on Iraq's team because you know by giving them a loss they will be tortured, jailed and possibly killed for losing to you let that sink in
Great video! Now maybe look into why someone can place the Ukranian flag on the EPL trophy, but then get banned on the mention of Palestine.
Troy deeney movin mad
Why would someone just lie about saddam 😂😂😂
Going to see a regular football game instead of only playing powder puff football (I am too old for that sort of thing now anyway) is starting to sound more like fun to me after watching your video. .Thank you for exposing the truth about all military organizations in general. A pity that most people today on UA-cam channels offer history about only in other nations anytime the additional information is of very very dark, sinister and horrific nature. Back then there was torture methods being practised in more than one nation. Seems to me that any of the nations today too which have not passed any laws against the use of coersive control...
Say what you want about colonialism, but this would never have happened if Iraq was still under British rule
Wow, colonialism and Iraq... now there's a comedy goldmine! I mean, let's be real here, if Iraq was still under British rule, they'd probably all be lining up for high tea and apologizing for not queuing properly. Can you imagine the Queen sipping tea in Baghdad? "Oh lovely, dear, those sandstorms really do wonders for the complexion!"
But hey, colonialism wasn't all tea and crumpets, am I right? I mean, the British did introduce cricket to India, and now they can't stop winning at it. It's like the revenge of the colonized! And don't even get me started on the cuisine... I mean, tikka masala is basically the national dish of Britain at this point.
And let's not forget about those borders they drew up in the Middle East like they were playing a game of Risk. "Oh, let's just stick a ruler here and there, ignore the tribal rivalries, what could go wrong?" But hey, at least they left behind some lovely legacy of conflict and instability for generations to come.
But in all seriousness, we can't change the past, but we can certainly learn from it. And if there's one thing we've learned, it's that colonialism might have given us some great punchlines, but it sure doesn't solve anything. So let's raise a cup of tea to moving forward and building a world where borders are respected and tea is enjoyed, no matter who's in charge. Am I right, folks? Let's give it up for colonialism, the gift that keeps on giving... for better or for worse! Thank you, goodnight!

We need a Uday in charge of the U.S. Women’s Soccer League, maybe gets some wins
Iraq invasion is one of the weirdest. Its wrong, but man it freed people from a tyrant. Are things perfect now ? No. But damn its a weird improvement.
I agree why did they stop
Now they live under a new tyrant from Iran, so I would that it rather got worse.
It's not the invasion itself, that's what people don't understand, it's how it was done. The US could've easily targetted just Saddam and his loyals but deliberately targeted civilians and wrongfully detained hundreds/thousands.
And the US' bad intentions are what makes it worse, they're not interested in Iraqis living in peace, they were just very upset with Saddam's attitude and the rise of islamism. They felt like they needed to destroy the whole territory to feel ´safe' 10000km away
It placed people in the shackles of another set of tyrants.
You gotta love the fact that he had his paramilitary group wearing
Darth Vader helmets 😂😂
wow.
There is a great, rather unknown movie about Uday. It's called "The Devil's Double"
If Uday Husayn was Uday Shetty: Bhagwan ka Diya hua sb kuch hai... Daulat hai... Shaurat hai... But yeh team... Jeeti hi nhi hai. Chor bhi toh nhi skta pyaar Jo krta hu. 😭
Interesting video.
