I think they were friends because of the conflicts in Iran and because of the US's dependency on oil, thus making it neccesary for us to have friends in the middle east. But the article was interesting. You gotta remember Clinton was in Iraq during much of his Presidency as well though. Hell, he could have taken Hussein out if he wasn't a pussy.
