In letters from jail, Saddam Hussein alleged torture, complained of sleepless nights

Immediately after U.S. troops captured Saddam Hussein in 2003, Iraq's brutal ex-dictator turned into a crybaby over "beatings" by a "detention gang" and sleepless nights amid screams of torture victims.

Saddam poured out his complaints "to whom it may concern" in

Did anyone else cringe while reading this? It reads like a freshman's first paper for Journalism 101.

Okay, sorry, but dude? You fucking randomly murdered people for years. You used ethnic groups you disagreed with as tests for your chemical weapons.

Karma's a bitch, and this wasn't even an equal helping.

I have always been fascinated by Saddam, and may or may not have dressed up as him for the History Dept. Halloween Party one year in college..... but dude? Cry me a fucking river.

tbh, I'm fascinated by dictators in general. They're all such interesting motherfuckers.

I hope it was because he recounted the following events:
- Ordering the deaths of Iraqi government officials over the radio so their family could hear of so right before the firing squad killed them
- Ordering the deaths of countless Iraqi Shia'as and Kurds
- Ordering the pick up and dumping of Iraqi citizens onto the Iran/Iraq border
- Killing millions of people over a senseless war with Iran and Kuwait
- Allowing his people to have an embargo which lasted nearly a decade and destroyed Iraqi families and morale
- Etc.
