It was clearly never about that--and you don't need the evidence of today's socieal degeneration to prove it. All you need is to point to the fact that Saddam was a largely secular tyrant. In Osama bin Laden's caliphate, Saddam would have been one of the first against the wall.

Saddam was also a lunatic and a sadist, but that's another story.
