And I didn't know about the CIA training Saddam Forces (I'm assuming it's the Baath party). I knew that Iraqis wanted an uprising but I thought they were pissed at us for not helping.
It was in a documentary on the history channel some years back- not sure which. And you misread my timeline- it was anti-Saddam forces (against the Baath party with assistance from the Kurdish Rebels). We helped where we could, but the UN pressured the US to leave after we liberated Kuwait, thus the CIA couldn't stay too much longer and had to leave. Mistakes were made in the 1990's... let's not even try to touch on Rwanda and how Clitton totally botched that.
