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".

Yeah, I saw him having breakfast with hillary this morning.

Chappaqua?

Also, would be the opportunity given by Dubya' for his

father to have a chat with Saddam.

I'll bet Papa Bush is a very happy man today!

You are a fool.
He's a banned fool at that.
I am kinda longing for the days when these guys would be nuked, and all their posts would disappear. Now people are going to be replying to his posts all day long. :D

I like the new policy.. Leaving the banned's old posts up is a great way to stay current on what's PC at FR.

Keeps those of us who have inpure thoughts out of trouble.

No doubt in my mind. After all, his assassin attempter has lost his freedom through the efforts of his son!

Sunday is a good day to deal with those "impure thoughts" of yours.

[Quix]

For sure.

I hope it's at least Guantanamo or Diego Garcia. No closer to Iraq.

And, I would hope that some loose group or Iraqi patriots will blow him to confetti on the way to his trial.

Sounds like you're on the wrong site ... don't your buddy's miss you over at DU

Where did he go? Did truth and realism confuse his little mind?

[hellinahandcart]

I heard you the first time. :P

[tpaine]

Yes, thats what me mom always said.

Somehow, they always came back, right after mass, as the young ladies came walking out of church.

Here's a quarter. Call someone at DU who cares.

I'd leave him at the Bhagdad airport. Set up a few buzz-saws, killing zones, land mines, plenty of razor-wire and lotsa beefy marines. Let the bad guys try and free him. Easier than going out and finding them :)

[Free_at_last_-2001]

LOL!

[mrebel2k]

Can you imagine how humiliating it is for Saddam to have to open his mouth and say "Aaaaa" at the command of an American soldier?!

Or worse, how comforting it was. He was now safe. He seemed to be telling the dr that he was having pains in his jaws... anyone else notice that?

[redheadtoo]

Do you suppose those two were separated at birth?

[section9]

Nope. Not on a carrier.

We want him away from a ship filled with 5,000 guys, most of whom do not have a clearance.

Nope, Saddam is in Diego Garcia. We have his hidy hole waiting for him there. Some of the best people in British, American, and Jordanian intelligence are going to be giving him the once-over of a lifetime. He will be cut off from reality. The only world he will know are his interrogators, who will offer him up all sorts of wild tales about how his traitorous family members ratted him out; how his cow of a wife sold him to the Americans for more money; how it was his nephew Mustafa, that good-for-nothing who couldn't be trusted with the family money, who gave up the ghost for thirty pieces of silver.

They will stoke his emotions and his hate. He'll be told that bin Laden has been captured and that Binnie is singing like a canary, implicating Saddam in all sorts of stuff. He will be plied with cigarettes and liquor, then deprived for long periods of time while that awful light remains on in middle of his cell.

Scotland Yard and FBI interrogators with years of experience will lead the interrogation. The Jordanians will seem friendly, fellow Muslims who will endeavor to understand him and will listen as decades of resentment and grievance come boiling out of Saddam's personal intellectual cauldron. They will be the good cops.

In the background, in a place that Saddam will never see, will be several very experienced Israeli intelligence officers from Mossad and Shin Bet. They are colonels and psychiatric officers who have made it their life's work to understand this broken man. They will be the intellectual architects of Saddam's personal emotional collapse. The Americans and the British will take their cues from the Israelis. The Jordanians will never know that the Israelis are even on the Island, unless an understanding has been reached with King Abdullah beforehand.

Saddam thought he might be able to resist torture. The hallmark of modern interrogation technique is to give the subject nothing to resist against.

Be Seeing You,

Chris
