What Westerners like us fail to understand is Middle-Eastern Culture. Over 50% of the Iraqi population works for, or is related to someone who works for, the Government. Either in the military or another Government institution. They all like Saddam.

Attacking Iraq is perceived as a personal attack on their families. They are not going to cooperate.
You're very very wrong. The simple fact that he will kill those who vote against him is enough to convince people to vote for him. And it's not 99%, it's 100.0000% - he's won every time anonymously.
