Always wondered about the guy. He managed to elude detection for years through an extensive network of contacts and safe houses. But his luck ran out.
This guy just keeps dying. Is he really dead this time?
Here’s another report from 2005
***Izzat Ibrahim al-Duri, the fugitive former number two of deposed Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein, reportedly died, as US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice paid a surprise visit as part of a regional tour.
There was a 10-million-dollar US bounty outstanding on Ibrahim, 63, who was said to be gravely ill with leukemia. Ibrahim was the most senior former Iraqi leader still at large since Saddam was captured in December 2003. He did much of Saddam’s dirty work and commanded an entire army corps despite never having attended a military institution or school of higher learning
The death report came the day Rice visited Iraq to whip up participation in next month’s general elections. ***
A real tortoise died for his glasses. Where are all the animal rights people?
Oh its THAT asshole? Good to hear indeed..
