Babylon is Iraq, is that not right?

Saddam Hussein considered himself to be the reincarnation of the Babylonian king Nebuchadnezzar.

However, I will not debate this, as I do not claim to be any kind of expert.

To: Do Not Make Fun Of His Ears

Babylon was the beautiful Persian capital city in which Nebuchadnezzar resided. And yes, it was in what is NOW Iraq...and is NOW being rebuilt at great expense, (with OUR help,) to what seems to be its original design with all the opulence and splendor it once had including the fabulous Hanging Gardens. Babylon is the reason Iran wants Iraq so badly. A restoration of Persia with Babylon as its capital.
