Saddam Hussein (Lib of Bio)(Oop)

By Nita M. Renfrew

A recent spate of attacks against tourists has given an area of Rome an unwelcome reputation. And when, in the early hours of a spring Saturday morning, German tourists come across the body of an elderly English artist in Piazza de' Renzi, it looks like just another in this unpleasant string of muggings for Commissioner Alec Blume. But when Blume learns that the dead man was no tramp, but a highly skilled forger of the masters and joint owner of the Galleria Orpiment, the investigation takes on a different hue. Blume's conviction that this was no mugging-gone-wrong is only strengthened by the unlikely interest of Colonel Farinelli, former director of the Art Forgery and Heritage Division of the Carabinieri, who, whilst hindering Blume's own enquiries, seems to know more about the artist, his gallery and business partner than he's letting on...

Customer Reviews

Sorry state of the world.

The title of this review says it all. How sad a state is this world in, when a CHILDREN'S book has less prejudice and more substance than any other advanced level book. Whether you agree with the book or not, this is the only fairly written book in regards to Saddam Hussein. I understand how hard it is for somebody to change their belief in regards to Saddam Hussein (propaganda is a powerful force, and unlearning is harding than learning). But I beg that you give the book a chance.

Can I give it five-and-a-half stars? Outstanding book on the real Saddam!

The Benevolent Leader of Iraq

This book, allowed to go out-of-print, and which is no longer listed at the Chelsea House website, was written back in 1992 before Saddam became demonized and villainized by the Bush establishment, the New World Order crowd, and, of course, the Jews' media. This book unfolds the story of Saddam in a simple, frank way, without endless pages of commentary. It tells about Jewish Israel and their reign of terror on the native Palestinians, their plans to expand until they seize all lands in the middle-east, building their empire on the blood of the Islamic Arabic peoples. The author presents the facts which themselves disprove the many manufactured atrocity stories being circulated about President Hussein. The author reveals the many constructive and positive programs he employed to build Iraq into a prosperous industrialized nation. His emancipation of women, public works and internal improvements as part of his populist politics are discussed in a brief way that gets right to the point. Throughout the book, the author gets to the point without wasting the reader's time on long-winded boring commentary. The author reveals clearly that Saddam intended to withdraw from Kuwait after the regime change, rendering completely unnecessary Bush's Gulf War against Iraq. The author further reveals that after Saddam ordered a withdrawal, the U.S. pursued slaughtering unarmed retreating Iraqi troops. The author reveals how the British and the U.S. violated their agreements and promises with the Arabic nations for decades, actions which largely amounted to deliberate provocation. If you want a balanced view of Saddam, this books offers such a balance by refuting the lies and propaganda which typify dozens of other books written about Saddam Hussein.
