Uhm it's not close-pre-war I'd argue Saddam since he was secular, pro-western and a moderate who held the region up. But then in 1980 he went crazy, invaded Iran and then proceeded to use chemical weapons when he thought he was going to lose.

Literally killed hundreds of thousands, in the longest war of the 20th century just for oil-oh the irony

Iraq.  Saddam Hussein may have been a tyrant, but I don't seem to remember anything about him leading chants of "Death to America" and "Death to Israel." 

Is the US so insecure that it can't handle being called names?
