Give Hussien a break. Foriegn policy is fluid and not as static as you like it to be. Everything is based off "What have you done for me LATELY." and not your numerous achievements 50 years ago. If you have what I need, I'm your best friend. If not, I don't know you. Hussien was useful AT THE TIME. Today he is a thorn in our side. Times change. OBL was our friend at one time. He took our Stinger Missiles. Today he sets bombs on our soil.
