Saddam was the exception, not the rule. You'd have a tough time finding any secular leader in the Middle East as bad as him. Even the previous Iraqi regimes before him weren't that bad.
That's because there aren't that many secular regimes in the Middle East to begin with. The problem is you are making conclusions without actually analyzing the situation in Iraq - all you seem to care about is whether the government has religion in it or not.
False. All of the governments are secular except Iran, Saudi Arabia and now Iraq.
Depends how you define "secular".
