 <span>Saddam Hussein went to war with Iran because of his fear from the Shiites majority in Iraq. 

In 1979, the Iranian revolution succeeded. Saddam was afraid it would spread to Iraq, so he tried to destroy the new Iranian regime. He brought up the issue of the border & the water war (propaganda). But he wanted the Iranian oil fields in the near the border to tip the scale of power to his favor. However, he got trapped in a long war, which lasted for 8 years. 

For a similar reason, he decided to invade Kuwait. After the war with Iran, Iraq's economy was destroyed. Soldiers returned home & were shocked at the troubles they found. Saddam was afraid that the unhappy Iraqis who got used to war would unleash their fury on him. So, he decided to send them to Kuwait. Either they succeed to steal its wealth, or he gets rid of them in another war. This is why he kept the enlisted in the front lines, while the loyal Republican Guard was kept behind to bug away.</span>

Do you sympathize with Pontiac? Was he a hero or a villain? (this about the seven-year war. Global war)
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Definitely, Pontiac was a hero. He was courageous and wise warrior. He managed to unite many Alginkin tribes. His troops drove the British out of many forts of the Ohio River Valley. Moreover, his uprising indirectly contributed to the later American Revolution.

Explanation:

It is impossible to reveal the exact losses of the conflicting parties during the hostilities during the Pontiac uprising. According to modern estimates, about 3,500 Indian soldiers and up to 3,000 British soldiers participated in them, and the combat losses of the Indians are estimated at 200 people, but their victims among civilians are hard to be measured. However, as a result of the uprising, the British were forced to suspend the colonization of territories conquered from the French and guarantee the Indians the right to their lands. According to the royal proclamation of 1763, an Indian reservation was formed on the entire territory from the Appalachian Mountains to the Mississippi River, where whites were forbidden to settle or buy land. This act is still taken into account in relations between the Canadian government and the indigenous people of America.

The threat from the Indians forced the British government to leave a significant contingent of the armed forces in the American colonies, and for that the colonists were subject to additional taxes. These taxes, as well as the territorial outcome of the Pontiac War, caused discontent among the colonists and became one of the reasons for the American revolution that soon followed.
