And I heard he (Mussolini) had syphillis in addition to the other problems

Yes. His sexual activities were not dissimilar to those of a recent US president.

His office was a bordello even though it didn't have a bed. He didn't need one.

He also suffered from severe ulcers all his life.

Eddie Slovik, who, in 1945, became the first and only American soldier to be executed for desertion since the Civil War. Ironically, his story was made into an Emmy award-winning TV movie starring Martin Sheen in 1974.

Perhaps Saddam is sending them all a "wish you were here" postcard?

Does the Sunday Telegraph always use the red italics? It's difficult to read.

I really feel badly for the poor Iraqi draftee.

"If I run Saddam will kill me. If I stand and fight the Americans and Brits will kill me."

It really stinks to be him.

[Stopislamnow]

Yeah, heheh, Saddam is busy elsewhere....

Ivan, I like the red, please keep the red!!

Re: "Maniacs in Saddam's family..." What??? You mean there are family members who are NOT maniacs? hahahahahaha

[MadIvan]

Actually its implying that the west no longer does these things, because I want to know when it stopped. and not even 'these things', because its clear to anyone that no western army besides perhaps nazi germany, or stalin has shot as many deserters as saddam. good nite.

Rubbish. If you wanted that information you would have gone to Google to read some articles about it, rather than post what you did.

Retreat while you can.

[I still care]

Ivan, was at the Clearwater rally for the troops yesterday. When Glenn Beck thanked the Brits, the crowd ROARED! Tell your friends how grateful we in the US are...

Mussolini was strung up on a meat hook.

They seem to have those in abundance in many places in Iraq; in basements of hospitals, police stations, military installations. Take your pick!

[metalboy]

The end is quite near. The only question is: how will he go down. A Mussolini or a Hitler moment

Let`s hope it`s a Mussolini..That would make a nice poster to hang on my wall...Saddam and his little bastards hanging upside down like pigs in a market

Hmmmm. Evil dictator hung by his heels after being killed and then thrown in the gutter.... sounds pleasant enough to me!

>The devastation and death caused by both blasts were graphically shown on Al Jazeera, the Arab TV station.< But of course it was - and do you suppose they'll ever broadcast even the HINT that it was Saddam, and not the coalition that was behind this?
At most, they'll state "the coalition CLAIMED...."

Cowardice in France may just be throwing your hands up too fast or too enthusiastically.

Run from us and DIE Fight us and DIE

It's funny how life's choices finally catch up to each of us, now isn't it?
