Wonder who the anonymous leaker is? It is shameful that the media would be allowed to compromise the security of the American forces guarding Hussein. This leak put American military forces in danger, but the cheerleaders are celebrating. If he gets sprung and is given sanctuary back in Syria, all bets are off. Hopefully, they hung him already.

That's it ? 148 deaths ?
I still don't get his defense. I would have blamed everything on Queesy & Uday.

This smells like a deliberate "background" briefing given by the White House.

" I'll bet the MSM manages more sympathic air and print time for Saddam ..'

It's really hard for the MSM right now.
Do they cover James Brown and the Al Sharpton entourage at the Apollo or Gerald Ford ?
Or their hero, Saddam Hussein ?
If anything happens to Osama, the poor babies will be beside themselves.
Woodward's Gerald Ford interview trumped the white horses in Harlem.
If Saddam wants to leapfrog that-he better get Woodward on the horn pronto
for a death bed final interview where he bashes Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld.

Al-Dulaimi said that neither the defense team nor Hussein's family have been given an execution date.

The U.S. State Department also says it has not been told when Hussein will be executed.

Iraqi law requires that the family be allowed to visit the day before the execution and that they be notified by the prison administration of the date the sentence is to be carried out.

A senior Bush administration official said Thursday that the execution is likely to be "a couple of days" from now.

Dear ST and Karl,

One's airplane is chocked in a hangar.
One's coat is hung on a hanger.

Taking a leaf from the South Park movie, Saddam maybe ought to be trampled to death by a herd of wild boars.

If I had to bet, I would bet not for a few weeks at least.

First, I hope it's true. Second, I hope that they don't hang him during the Packer game. :-)

There was a post on here that had Husseins's maternal half brothers or brothers-in-law visiting him. One was an al-Tikriti. I can not find it now. It named them, and said it was unclear if a paternal brother had visited him. I did not mark it, and do not recall the title. It could mean the deal is done if it was the day before the execution.

Thanks for the ping, Kent. I've been waiting for this day since I saw photos from Hallabjah during a briefing in Autumn 1990.

I'm sure there are more than a few dead South Vietnamese waiting in line to have a word with Ford about how he handled North Vietnam after they broke our agreement about staying north of the DMZ after we left.

Prior to and during the major combat phase, I had a streetcorner sign that read NAPALM SADDAM. But I'll take this!
