The Fate of Saddam Hussein
Saddam Hussein's career intersects with the WWF for the second and final time in 1990. This happened because Saddam invaded a little country called Kuwait and George W. Bush, you know, says we're all going to get ourselves over there on Operation Desert Storm. The fact that the Iraq war was such like a bad idea and so controversial, a lot of folks, especially like younger folks, millennials and zoomers, don't remember how much fucking war fever there was in the US over Desert Storm. I have an extensive collection of bootleg Bart Simpson Desert Storm t-shirts that provide that kind of race memory for me. It's epigenetics, like surviving an act of genocide.
