Saddam's revenge 

During the 2003 invasion of Iraq, Coalition forces were often sickened by the poor hygiene conditions that exist for an invading military. The various stomach bugs that troops would be inflicted with were referred to by them as "Saddam's revenge".
"With ailments ranging from “Saddam’s revenge” stomach bugs to infections caused by bad hygiene, hundreds of soldiers are lining up at sick call instead of patrolling front lines." (Source: "Troops' health woes run gamut from 'Saddam's revenge' to severe stress" By MARNI MCENTEE | STARS AND STRIPES
