And you have established that you did not mind Saddam taking Kuwait, SA, or Israel, because it was "none of our business".

You know, I remember the issue of oil rights conflicts between Iraq and Kuwait (one of the many reasons for their tensions) but for the life of me I don't remember a secular state (namely Iraq) wanting to 'take' Saudi Arabia or Israel...

Ok, ok, Saddam and Sons were wonderful peaceful neighbors, who would not hurt a fly.
