Explanation:

Saddam Hussein was a dictator. He was not tolerant of different views. There was no peace during his rule. There is no evidence of him shipping drugs to the US. However, he did use chemical weapons against the Kurds (his own people) in the 1980s, such as in the Halabja chemical attack.

used chemical weapons against his own people.
