Proved wrong then?
This old news. Could this be a 'ZOT' alert?
As soon as I saw his name, I suspected he was lying.
I like the spider-hole version a lot better!
hmmmm ...
Abou ben bullship
Yeah this is a trash story, was already debunked earlier this year.
Actually I would prefer the "Saddam was shooting at the soldiers" version. If true, they likely would have offed him instead of merely arresting him.
And he was interviewed in Lebenon... hmmmmm
BS
He was a Marine???? A silk purse from a pigs ear they did not make. Marines misfired on this one.
Yep I believe it was. Also, does it make any dfference, he was still caught. Hiding in a hole or a house they still got the weasel.
Why would his version of this story be any better or worse than the known version? Makes no sense.
I like the version where is was working the drive up window of McCamels
There was no second story on the farmhouse where he was captured.
UPI?
Helen Thomas's gig?
Now, will someone tell us what would be the advantage to fabricate a story of the capture? All the public ever cared about is that Saddam was captured. Nobody cared a whit if he was captured in a hole or if he was captured the way this guy claims. The blowback from fabricating a story would be much worse from any benefit of such a fabricated story.
I don't get it.
Because the Saudi Wahabbi press wants everyone to to believe that it was "the Arabs" who really captured him.
By extension, the "fabricated" story is yet another attempt to humiliate "the Arabs."
Then again, I am still very skeptical that man actually walked on the moon. ;^)
And coincidently, Saddam is now claiming he is selling his soul for the cause.
Nah, I'm just being suspicious, there can't be any connection.
