WASHINGTON, Dec. 28 (UPI) -- U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said Sunday that even in hindsight, Iraq's Saddam Hussein had to go, to further stability in the Middle East.
Rice said on CBS' "Sunday Morning" that Saddam brutalized his own citizens and long had unwelcome ambitions in the region, as was illustrated in the invasion of Kuwait that led up to the first Gulf War under President George H.W. Bush.
