I see Saddam as a second-rate Stalin -- with dreams of recreating the Battle of Stalingrad. (Everybody needs a dream.) According to that Mark Bowden story in Atlantic, Saddam has a room devoted to Stalin in one of his palaces.

His tactics in seizing power could have been taken directly from a Stalin bio.

He clearly uses Stalinist tactics, but then, I've never seen that much difference between Hitler and Stalin. Their similarities seem much more important than any distinctions.
