He did not "openly support it" at all, Keith (and thanks for the gratuitous insult: I see that your boss is influencing you).
Yertis:
Almost all Muslim political and religious leaders condemned the attacks. The leaders vehemently denouncing the attacks included the leaders of Egypt (Hosni Mubarak), the Palestinian Authority (Yasser Arafat), Libya (Muammar Gaddafi), Syria (Bashar al-Assad), Iran (Mohamed Khatami) and Pakistan (Pervez Musharraf).[4][20] The sole exception was Iraq, when the then-president Saddam Hussein, said of the attacks that "the American cowboys are reaping the fruit of their crimes against humanity".[21] Saddam would later offer sympathy to the Americans killed in the attacks.[22] [wiki]

Thing is, Keith, Saddam reacted just like half the blokes in the pub I went to that night, only Saddam said it in more colourful words, namely that the yanks had it coming because of their shameful foreign policy. That was not saying that he was glad it happened and that it was fine to fly planes into skyscrapers. Not a single one of those blokes thought that the attacks were justified, and you are not justified in putting that interpretation on Saddam's words. Let's face it, Keith. The most inappropriate possible extrapolation from those words is that he "openly supported" it. That's just a fib. And he had absolutely nothing to do with it. And note the final line of the above quote. You have no point to make here at all.
