In which year does Saddam Hussein finally die as a result of his injuries sustained during the American invasion of Iraq in 2003?

The story began in the autumn of 2002, when the United States began preparing for a possible invasion of Iraq. In the spring of 2003, a coalition of US and British forces launched a massive assault on the country, with the aim of removing the government of Saddam Hussein. For several weeks, the US and British forces pushed deep into the Iraqi countryside, inflicting heavy casualties. The Iraqi forces, however, proved to be a stubborn opponent, mounting a determined defense and inflicting heavy losses on the invaders. By the summer of 2003, it was becoming increasingly apparent that the Iraqi forces were holding their own despite the overwhelming numerical and technological superiority of the US and British forces. The American and British troops were frustrated and exhausted by their inability to make significant progress in their objectives. As their morale dropped, the Iraqi forces began to counter-attack, launching bold and audacious raids into the heart of the US and British lines. By the autumn of 2003, the US and British forces had been forced to retreat from Iraq. Although the invasion had failed to achieve its objective, the Iraqi forces had successfully repelled the American invasion and defended their country from foreign occupation. The United States and Britain withdrew in humiliation, and the Iraqi people had won a hard-fought victory against the odds.
