The name Saddam Hussein is no stranger to everyone, and internationally, he was also a well-known figure.
In the first half of his life, he was full of ambition and full of enthusiasm to devote himself to national construction, and single-handedly promoted the development of Iraq's oil economy, so that the entire country of Iraq achieved economic take-off in a short period of time and created infinite wealth for the country and the people.
During this period, the Iraqi people saw him as their savior.
But heroes often fall into a law of cause and effect, after creating brilliant achievements, they will be blinded by the power and wealth in their hands, gradually lose their original ideals, and become shameless people who have wool on the country and the people.
Saddam Hussein is no exception, having turned the entire country into his own private treasure trove during his 24 years of rule in Iraq. His life can be described as poor and extravagant, absurd, and he did not hesitate to spend money for himself, and built 24 golden and splendid luxury palaces with a big hand.
The palace is as large as the pillars and beams, as small as the toilet and cups, all made of gold, and its magnificence is staggering. In order to satisfy his personal taste, he also ordered someone to build an AK47 out of gold.
One person won the Tao, the chicken dog ascended to heaven, Saddam Not only knew that he was happy, but also did not forget to benefit his family, and soon after he came to power, he was busy leading his family to embark on the road of "common prosperity", they quickly monopolized various industries in Iraq, from oil fields to infrastructure construction, the economic lifeblood of the country was controlled by Saddam Hussein, and he himself accumulated huge wealth.
It is rumored that in 2000, Saddam Hussein's personal assets reached $7 billion, and Saddam Hussein, who was hunted by the United States, carried as much as 100,000 yuan in cash when he fled.
Politically, Saddam Hussein has adopted an outrageous dictatorship of extreme cruelty, and he has been busy purging dissidents within a few days of coming to power, and the viciousness of his methods is more chilling than everyone else, and the entire Iraqi political arena can only submit to him. He also constantly provoked foreign wars, pushing this country that had not been easy to improve into the depths of the water, causing the people to complain and suffer.
To this day, the deep calamity caused by his administration to the Iraqi people has not been eliminated. His brutality and cruelty are there for all to see, and even the underground lover he has been associated with for 10 years will inevitably feel fear because of him, and Mancia once exclaimed in his later years: As long as he lives, I will feel afraid.
It is said that Mansia is the most beautiful of Saddam's lovers, and when she met Saddam, she was a 15-year-old girl.
In 1983, the Iran-Iraq War was being staged in the Middle East, and the two sides were fighting fiercely. Countless Iraqi soldiers rushed to the battlefield one after another, enduring the baptism and test of the cruel flames of war. On the other side, in Baghdad, the capital of Iraq, President Saddam Hussein is making a routine inspection of a school, leisurely enjoying the cheers and pursuits of the people.
It was also here that Mancia, who was still a student, met Saddam Hussein for the first time, 46.
As the supreme ruler of Iraq, he appeared under the close protection of a group of black-clad bodyguards, with a look of constant non-anger and self-esteem on his face, which seemed so majestic, invincible, and intimidating.
With curiosity, Mancia slipped into the crowd and tiptoed desperately in the direction of Saddam. Finally, she saw what Saddam Hussein looked like, and just by looking so far away, Mancia suddenly fell hopelessly in love with him.
At this time, although Saddam Hussein had reached middle age, his appearance could still be called handsome, and the high-ranking and powerful person had a prestige that was enough to shock others, and there was a calm and resolute expression on his face, which showed his extraordinary.
For a flower girl, such a man is undoubtedly extremely attractive.
As if by fate, Mansia's love for Saddam was planted.
Two years have passed, and by fate, 17-year-old Mancia has finally seen the person she has long wanted again.
One day, her family took her to a senior officers' ball, and in the cascading crowd, she glanced at the man who had haunted him for two years. Eighteen changes in the female major, two years of time, Mancia from a childish girl to a beautiful and lovely young girl, the only constant is the innocence and innocence of the heart of the love.
Entering the center of the dance floor, Mancia seems to be dancing like a fairy, the slender waist is swinging lightly with the music like a willow leaf, and the skirt blooms and hangs down quickly like a flower, like a butterfly with fluttering wings.
She enjoyed the dance to the fullest, and her only hope was to get a favorable eye from her beloved. In fact, all men, including Saddam, were deeply attracted to her.
Saddam, who had always been known for her lust, soon took a fancy to her and wanted to turn this beautiful and beautiful woman into his lover. Seeing the man she had admired for a long time, so attentive to herself, Mancia was ecstatic, simply she thought it was love, but she did not expect that this was the beginning of her own life misfortune.
After the dance, the two began to have frequent contact, and Mancia was immersed in a sweet love affair, full of eyes full of this man. Although the outside world's criticism of Saddam Hussein was incessant, she never cared, after all, the person in front of her was very caring and considerate of herself, and she could not be equated with the "demons" in his population.
After a period of time together, Mancia married Saddam Hussein in anticipation of a better future.
But the wedding was very different from what she had envisioned, no romantic proposal, no pigeon eggs, and no dream wedding. Mancia can only marry Saddam Hussein in a sneaky hasty ceremony, and if there is anything that can comfort Mancia as a bride, it is only a mansion villa given by Saddam!
Saddam Hussein himself was a man of great control and possessiveness, and he hid this trait well before marriage, and after marriage he was completely exposed. Without his permission, Mancia could not leave the house, and even he did not allow Mancia to see his relatives and friends casually, nor did he allow Mancia to appear on any occasion at the same time as himself.
It can be said that Mancia is completely under his surveillance, and his words and deeds cannot escape his scrutiny, and even the prisoners in prison are much freer than Mancia.
So, rather than a wedding gift, the lavish villa was a prison under house arrest in Mancia. Her identity, love, and marriage can never be made public, and for Saddam Hussein, she is just like the treasures and everything displayed in the palace, which belongs to Saddam, and can only hide in a dark corner forever, waiting for him to play with it when he is interested.
It can also be said that Mancia at this time was a canary raised by Saddam, she could get all material satisfaction, but she could never be truly happy, because her master would never open the cage and let her fly freely.
She has no socializing, no friends, no fun, and can only repeat the monotonous and tedious days every day, and Saddam's careless pity is her only expectation and happiness. Gradually, she felt that her life had gradually become a waste, and her energy was slowly drying up.
But even so, the manipulated Mancia still did not wake up from the sweet illusion of love, love is always blind, in that period, nothing can shake Mancia's fanatical admiration for Saddam, she still enjoys the little tenderness and care that Saddam Hussein gives herself, and willingly does Saddam's invisible underground lover.
She would even find all the reasons to excuse Saddam Hussein: Saddam's perverted controlling behavior was because he loved himself too much and didn't want to lose; Saddam Hussein came to see him less and less often, certainly because he was too busy.
In the face of Saddam, Mancia was always as gentle and considerate as possible, carefully playing the perfect image that existed in Saddam's heart, just to beg for some more attention from him.
Her love, so innocent and almost stupid, so hot that she almost burned herself, may have touched Saddam Hussein.
Because among his many lovers, Mancia has existed for an incredible amount of time. The relationship lasted for more than a decade, and Mancia was indeed a special presence compared to those lovers who had only a few dewy affairs and brief relationships with Saddam.
Mancia's much-loved nature also brought wealth and glory to her family.
Saddam Hussein loved U and U, and constantly promoted people in the Manthian family, quickly bringing them into the upper echelons of the Iraqi military and political circles. Saddam Hussein's move made Mancia even more moved, not to mention the loss of freedom, or let her give her life for this man, she would never say a word.
But before long, Mancia's boring but peaceful life was completely broken, and this canary, which was raised in gold and jade, had to face one storm after another on its own. Speaking of which, we must also talk about Saddam Hussein's iron fist in politics.
Internationally, saddam Hussein is also quite arrogant, and he has provoked international wars many times, leaving the Middle East region in a state of turmoil and deeply disgusted by the people. In addition, he has always pursued anti-American policies, so many organizations, including the United States, want to get rid of him.
In 1991, the United States orchestrated a murder of Saddam Hussein, manipulating the car in which he was riding, causing a huge explosion. But Saddam Hussein, as if blessed by the gods, was unharmed in the explosion.
In 1995, the United States bought off Iraqi officers who wanted to cooperate with each other and join forces to eliminate Saddam Hussein, but the final plan did not work.
Unwilling to accept the repeated defeats, the Americans found a waitress and wanted her to poison the food in order to kill Saddam Hussein. Unexpectedly, in the process of carrying out the task, the waitress was caught by Saddam Hussein because of nervousness, and the American plan was aborted again.
Such assassinations have occurred one after another, and Saddam Hussein's suspicions have become more and more serious.
Whoever he had the slightest suspicion of this man, he was to immediately carry out a brutal purge to put an end to the consequences, even Mancia, who was loyal to him.
In the palatial cage that Saddam Hussein built for her, Mancia spent a decade with her firm belief in love. But the good times did not last long, and a sudden political upheaval completely destroyed everything that was not solid, and Mancia's wonderful fantasy of love came to an end.
In 1995, dissatisfied with Saddam's dictatorial tyranny, his two sons-in-law, together with Mansia's brother, staged a coup d'état in an attempt to revolutionize the political situation in Iran and remove Saddam hussein from his position as supreme ruler.
But Saddam Hussein, who has experienced hundreds of battles, can they easily calculate?
Of course not, he had a super-keen sense and judgment of the situation, and he already knew their plans, and he had secretly deployed everything. In this way, the old treacherous giant once again escaped from danger. Saddam Hussein, who had returned to his senses, immediately took brutal repression and retaliation against the reactionaries.
After the matter was revealed, the daughter and son-in-law knew the viciousness of their father's methods, so they fled Israel in a hurry and went to Jordan to take refuge.
In order to coax them back, Saddam Hussein did not show any displeasure, but played the family card, pretending to make a promise that he would never hold them accountable.
The daughter and son-in-law, who were in a panic, heard that her father had made such a promise, and although she still had some doubts in her heart, she thought that her father would care about her family affection and let them go, so she chose to return to the motherland. But they forgot that in order to maintain his dominance, Saddam Hussein had nothing to give up, even if he was a flesh and blood relative, he would never let it go.
Sure enough, he prepared a generous gift for the two daughters and sons-in-law at the airport, and the arrest of the eldest son, Udai. Saddam Hussein directly ordered the execution of his two sons-in-law, and his daughter was imprisoned for life. As for Mancia's brother, the end is self-evident, and those who betray Saddam Hussein naturally have only one way to die.
After disposing of these people, Saddam Hussein obviously couldn't let go of his mind, and he turned his suspicious eyes to Mancia, who had no second thoughts about him. Although he was so strict with Mancia that she could not even move freely, he could not rule out the possibility that she was also involved in the rebellion.
In his opinion, the more unlikely the person seems, the greater the suspicion is often.
But this time, Saddam Hussein guessed wrong.
The simple Mancia knew nothing about her brother's rebellion, and when she learned of it, she blamed her brother in chagrin and feared that he would be severely punished, so she bent on interceding with Saddam Hussein. The kind-hearted woman did not realize that this man who was pampered by herself in Pingsuli could change his attitude overnight and send himself to prison for interrogation and torture.
Saddam Hussein, who believed that "if you kill a thousand by mistake, you will never spare one", he soon sent someone to imprison Mancia in the Intelligence Bureau. The lover becomes a prisoner of the order, and the twists and turns in it are absolutely incomprehensible to Mancia, and helplessly she has to endure the dark and cold environment of the prison and the torture of various kinds.
The originally delicate and feminine face has gradually lost its color, and the cheeks have shown signs of decay withered yellow and thin. Fear grew and spread in her heart, almost devouring her entire soul. How many times had she secretly prayed that it was all just a terrible dream, that her Saddam would be able to pull her out of the nightmare.
Unfortunately, all this mental and physical torture was given to him by the hero in her heart.
After a long hellish trial, Mancia was finally acquitted. At this time, she truly understood why the gentle and considerate lover in her eyes would be the "hell devil" in the eyes of so many Iraqis.
It turned out that after so many years of getting along, it was just a perfect performance by Saddam Hussein.
He could play a gentle and patient lover very well, but when he felt threatened and betrayed, the terrible face hidden under the intimate skin would be revealed, he was by no means a person bound by feelings, and in order to exclude dissidents, he could mercilessly order the slaughter of anyone, even the lover who had accompanied him for many years.
But even so, Mancia still had a glimmer of illusion about him, and she was foolishly expecting that she could return to Saddam Hussein's side. She thought that as long as she had cleared her doubts, everything would be restored to its original state, but things could not go as she wished, and Saddam Never Loved her again, like a woman who had been beaten into the cold palace, becoming disheartened.
Abandoning Mancia is not a difficult thing for Saddam Hussein, and he does not have the romantic feelings of "hero sad beauty pass", some are all the wolf ambitions of a politician. He has had countless beautiful women in his life, and to him women are just a resource at his fingertips, which can be abandoned at any time.
Therefore, leaving Mancia with a life is already his greatest mercy.
Ten years of affection turned out to be as light as grass, and Mancia, who had been put under house arrest, was like ashes, and she no longer had any hope for Saddam. But even more unfortunately, saddam killed everyone in the Manthian family in order to cut the grass and remove the roots.
Watching her loved ones die one by one, Mancia once again suffered great pain and blows, but she was powerless to resist, and could only continue to endure the suffering given by Saddam Hussein alone, gritting her teeth in torment.
In 2003, after several years of hard work, the United States finally shook the foundation of Saddam's rule and completely overthrew Saddam's regime. Saddam hussein fled with his two sons, but God did not help him this time. At the critical moment, his personal bodyguard suddenly reversed the water and helped the United States seize this once unruly and unstoppable tyrant.
Saddam Hussein, who was once high on the top and blind to all sentient beings, became a prisoner of the order, and the people of Iraq beat gongs and drums and took to the streets to tell each other the great news, and the whole country was immersed in the joyful atmosphere of getting rid of Saddam Hussein's autocracy.
It can be seen that in Iraq, Saddam Hussein is already infamous.
While collecting evidence of Saddam's crimes, the U.S. military found his former lover, Mancia, who was brutally killed by Saddam Hussein, who was truly liberated.
After Saddam's death, Mancia chose to live in seclusion, and she almost never mentioned the past.
Only once, when confronted by a reporter, she once said, "As long as he lives, I'll be afraid." ”
Saddam's various vicious methods have left a huge physical and psychological trauma on Mancia, and he personally slaughtered the girl's entire family, destroying her trust in human nature and her fantasies about love, and for her, there is nothing more terrible than this demon!
Supposedly, Saddam Hussein is dead, and Mancia can start a new life, just like Saddam's other wives and lovers, writing a new chapter in life. However, Mancia rejected all her suitors, still adhered to the vows she had made when she married, and lived alone for Saddam Hussein.
"I'll only love one man in my life, and that's Saddam Hussein."
When asked about her love life by the media, Mancia said such a sentence firmly.
Perhaps, Mancia still has a hard time letting go of that girlish dream, after all, she once projected everything she had onto this man, after all, they once had beautiful feelings, at least on the surface. Thinking of the sweet past, she still felt a warm feeling rush into her heart.
However, thinking of his terrible and heinous methods, she felt an indelible hatred swirling in her mind. The complicated feelings for Saddam Hussein have always been tied to her, so she can only silently guard the good memories of the past to comfort the remnants.
Perhaps Saddam Hussein himself would not have thought that this weak woman was the most sincere person in the world. If he had known underground, would he have been touched by Mancia's deep love, would he have regretted what he had done?
The love between the Tyrant of the Troubled World and the Red Pink Lady is the classic proposition of the novel, and fate once combined them, and separated them from each other in suspicion and pain, and finally death cast a layer of romance like "Gone with the Wind".
For the viewer, romanticizing the story is harmless, and for the humiliated Mancia, such a romance is obviously unfair, because her encounter is not romantic, her pain is not romantic, she has come all the way from the mud and thorns, leaving behind all the blood and tears, no one can turn her wounds into a beautiful rose, or turn her tears into a rainbow after the rain.
We can't evaluate their feelings, and probably only they know what the other person means to them.
The only certainty is that Saddam's brutal rule has provoked the resentment of all, and the rulers who have lost the hearts and minds of the people will eventually be overthrown.
In any case, in the end, Saddam Hussein paid for his tyrannical fierceness, although this did not make up for the harm suffered by all the victims, including Mancia, but at least this ending told the world that good and evil will eventually be rewarded, and evil will never become the force that rules the world.
