Wait! Something doesn't make sense here

I was reading some news, and right here is a rather interesting summary of Saddam Hussein's life: http://www.asharqalawsat.com/view/Currentissues/2003,04,10,164893.html (sorry, I have no idea where you can find an English translation)

So, it states there that Saddam claimed Kuweit as part of the payment for his war with Iran. I never heard of that... Is that just me?

Oh and it seems they call Bush Jr. the "fanatical right."

Saddam also has a mastership degree... something they consider higher than a doctorate degree. His thesis was something in the order of the Arab world in the 21st century.

Yeah, right. The guy couldn't even pass the exam to get into military school. He must've gotten that mastership degree after he became president.

Saddam showed up at the school with a cadre of deaths head guards, took his test, handed it over to the professors to grade, professors looked at the guards, saw the handwriting on the wall, passed his exam with an A without looking at it, instant doctorate ... Machiavellian style.
