Yup. Diego Garcia. But that's a really tiny island, and I would doubt they have provisions for things like that unless something were to be specially constructed.

I'm sure the dictators of the world are making notes about this. Kim Jong Il probably needs new panties.

I knew Saddam wouldn't take his own life any more than Arafat would take his. If it is the Iraqis who end up trying Saddam, he may wish he was killed in the raid.

I have a sneaking feeling that he is at some secure location within 8 hours of Iraq. I've heard whispers of a secure base somewhere out in the Indian Ocean, and that is where we do the initial interrogations before shipping people to Gitmo.

All I can say is, ain't no one gonna see him for some time.

They have to keep him safe until they can get information from him. I am certain that there are French and German groups that would like him dead before any incriminating information leaks out.

I am listening to Kerry on Fox, he has not mentioned one thing about our military and the splended job they are doing. he is advocating that now we can turn all this over to usual suspects and show the world how great we really are. He actually just said now we have to evaluate the cost of all this.!!
