She was a daughter of president, a Commander-in-chief. Refer back to her recollection on war and going to school; in addition she was a wife of a military man, do you expect all those ups and downs, threats and trainings they undergo are in vain in shaping their character and personality!

The interviewer is a class act. Polite, sensitive and kept his own biases from showing.

[@sohaibshehzad2052]

Polite & gentlemanly yes but not an OBJECTIVE journalist keen on getting to the bottom of reasons behind events his questions threw light on. He sounds more like an appeaser. I am not saying that he should've made Ms. Hussein uncomfortable or coerce her into explaining the decision father made (good or bad) but the least he could have done was find out EXACTLY the reason why Hussein Kamel made the fatal decision to defect to Jordan (a subject they talked about). This woman is a witness to events and most likely knows the EXACT reasons behind those decisions which affected the middle east for decades to come and the post cold war world. The journalist brilliantly wasted this once in a 50 years interview by not pressing a little harder. He could have uncovered much more without making her uncomfortable. Please note that Miss. Hussein doesn't live in a free country. She may not speak again. But it is a pleasant interview, just not very informative. I hope she writes a book which the Jordanians don't censor.

[@Mirkuzz]

But ironically Ms. Hussein didn't mention the devious set of roles played by Saudi Arabia & Kuwait in the sanctions regime on Iraq & eventually hosting the invasion for that toppled her father.

She is delusional, even after her father killed the father of her kids, she still covers for him. She is truly her father's daughter. She took his character

[@lalainerecasata7495]

I still can't forget the way Saddam Hussein died, at that time I had little knowledge about the conflicts in Iraq. Honestly I cried and up until now I still think he didn't deserve it.

[@thezmanchar]

He was despotic, he got what he deserved. He used to cut hands and fingers and hands off people. His sons were horrid. My cousins used to run into buildings and hide if they were going to school. If Udai drove he would pick up girls and rape them. It happened, then he would have principals show him year books so he could get girls, when she didn’t he killed her. That family is the worse.

Please ask her to explain the relationship between Uday and Qusay, especially in the final phases of their lives. How did they become so close late in their lives when they always seemed like the polar opposites of each other ?

Even polar opposite brothers come together when they face a mortal danger coming from a common enemy. After all they were brothers.

[@rikudou947]

@@sohaibshehzad2052 Yes, but because Qusay got too close to Uday he put himself in danger and both were killed in the same place at the same time.

@@sohaibshehzad2052 True. It is sad though that both brothers had to die. Iraq would have never been a mess with either of them in power today. Sure, there would have been a lot of brutality, but at least no religious and sectarian tensions.

[@jordanalandry1866]

Just because they were different personalities and interests etc. doesn't mean they weren't close their entire lives. Bc they certainly were, to the extent such a complex and severely dysfunctional family could be. They didn't hang out together for shits but what brothers do let alone, again in THAT particular family. They weren't any closer at the end of their lives when they died, it's just that they were in the same place, hiding out, on the run, they had to stick together bc to split up would have been moronic and they didn't have a whole hell of a lot of options at that point
