Now is also a good time to withdraw the UN

Annan: Iraq was safer under Saddam


Life for ordinary Iraqis is now more dangerous than under Saddam Hussein as the country descends into violence “much worse” than civil war, according to the outgoing secretary general of the United Nations, Kofi Annan.

“If I was an average Iraqi, I would make the same comparison [about life under Saddam],” he told the BBC.

“They had a dictator who was brutal but they had their streets.

“They could go out, their kids could go to school and come back home without a mother or father worrying ‘Am I going to see my child again?’

“A society needs minimum security and a secure environment for it to get on. Without security, not much can be done.”


What a joke. This man isn’t fit to lead anything. It’s a good thing he’s done at the end of this year.

Iraq’s national security adviser, Mouwaffaq al-Rubaie, rebuked Annan’s suggestion and accused the UN of shying away from its responsibility towards the Iraqi people.
