Saddam Hussein |

||||||
| Saddam Hussein became the president of Iraq in 1979. He created an international crisis in 1990 when his army invaded Kuwait. The invasion was condemned by the United Nations (UN), which initiated a trade embargo and, later, a military campaign against Iraq. Hussein was overthrown in 2003 by an invasion led by the United States. | ||||||
