Trump sang Hussein’s praises for eradicating “terrorists,” but it’s not the first time the Republican presidential candidate has complemented Middle-Eastern dictators for their actions.

Trump believes the United States should never have removed Saddam Hussein and “destabilised” Iraq… much like some people believe Muammar Gaddafi – who had a similar track record when it comes to human rights abuses, torture and murder – should never have been removed as the Libyan leader either.

Trump at first supported the war in Iraq, but later turned against it.

“He was a bad guy – really bad guy. But you know what he did well? He killed terrorists. He did that so good,” Trump told supporters in North Carolina.

“They didn’t read them the rights. They didn’t talk. They were terrorists. It was over. Today, Iraq is Harvard for terrorism,” he said.
