Saddam 'moved from Iraq'
Australia News ^ | Dec. 14, 2003 | AFP

Posted on 12/14/2003 9:58:58 AM PST by FairOpinion

SADDAM Hussein was no longer in Iraq, the US television network CBS reported today, citing unidentified military sources.

A CBS News correspondent in Saddam's northern Iraq hometown of Tikrit, near where Saddam was captured yesterday, said he had learned from military sources that the former Iraqi president was no longer in the country.

US Lieutenant General Ricardo Sanchez, the top US military commander in Iraq, said in Baghdad that Saddam "is currently under coalition custody and at an undisclosed location".

Uh, Saddam is kinda known for his lying. Do you think he is going to change.

The hope comes from perhaps the scientists who will come forward now.

I guess I want to put the UN in its' place also. It was THEIR conditional treaty that let Saddam go on and on, murdering thousands of his own people.

&&&Give it up. The WMD is a red herring.&&&


Tell it to the Kurds.

Now Kerry is saying he would not be surprized if we find WMDs.

Give it up? I think not.

"I'm just waiting for the evidence before I make up my mind."

When you make a statement like "WMD's are a red herring", that doesn't like someone with an open mind.

No. In order to punish him properly for his crimes against humanity, he's being forced to share an office with Hillary.

It would be great to have someone onboard taunt him in Arabic routinely:

No taunts filarabiyah or any other language. Just professional and relentless interrogation until he breaks. We need to know everything he ever knew. After that I don't particularly care how they execute him after that.

Even if he's still in country, a little misdirection never hurts.

Perhaps Bush Sr. ranch in texas, where SH and the Sr. GW are playing with a cattle prod?

Oh, I have visions of a brand on Saddam's butt with the initials GWB .

Comon. Who's zoomin' who here? Even Clinton admitted he had binary chemical weapons and anthrax.

I wonder if Dubya is gonna' lead Saddam in chains to the UN and say
"If you all won't try, convict and hang this b@$stad, we will, you worthless bunch of
cry-babies."

Nobody cared about the Kurds until it serves as a convenient excuse to attack Sadam. If anybody cared, we would have done something 20 years ago when the Kurds were reportedly gassed.

Why don't you go rain on someplace else Troll.

That happened in the 80s.

So you admit he had and used WMD's.

Kinda blows a hole in your major thesis.

Where was all the outrage then? I'll bet you never cared about a single dead Kurd until sometime after Clinton left office.

Leaving aside that I wasn't terribly politically aware in the '80s, if I had been aware of it, I would have been outraged. My black roommates made me aware of South African apartheid in the '80s, and I was outraged.

Dean would have left Saddam in power.

Did you know Gephardts dad drove a milk truck?

Did I mention Kerry was in Vietnam?

BWAHAHAHAHA!!! What a bunch of losers.

&&&Are you sure you are in the right forum? I think your notions would be well received at DU.&&&

I like seeing these types of posts right here in FR. these posts provide one a means to gauge what passes for "mainstream" in the opposition. Some of what I've read here reminds me of a child jumping up and down with his fingers in his ears, refusing to listen to an adult while the child is being punished.
