FOX also reported that the Iraqi gov is seeking permission to execute him on a holiday. My guess, if that answer comes back in the affirmative, the transfer and execution will take place. If not, he will remain in US custody until after the holiday (and maybe Sunday).
They don't want responsibility for guarding him for up to 48 hours.
Don't be too hard on Fox. They interviewed Saddam's attorney and he confirmed the transfer.
Does anyone have a working phone in Iraq?????
We didn't get there soon enough?

I don't get the "host on the sun", but did you see An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge? If you did, you are probably the only one besides myself. It was great!
Now, that would be cruel and unusual punishment. He'd put the rope around his own neck.

Time in Iraq
I left Fox for CNN because I wanted to see what you were talking about.... I don't see hysterics. What did I miss?
Yeah, right. They are quaking in their boots because this little scumbag, tin horn dictator is getting his just desserts. The entire Iraqi population will riot along with the Arab street because this guy who murdered over 300,000 Iraqis and invaded Iran and Kuwait will be put to death at the hands of the elected Iraqi government. /sarcasm>
I am constantly amazed about the concern people have about putting this tyrant to death. I guess we can invade the country, take down Saddam and his government and armed forces, kill thousands of insurgents and Baathists, but executing Saddam will make them really, really, really mad. LOL. Let the insurgent bastards react and suffer the consequences.
More than likely, there will be celebrating in the streets throughout Iraq. And most on the Arab street would love to see their unelected leaders suffer a similar fate.
James Rosen of Fox News just said that according to his White House source, that Saddam is still in AMERICAN custody.
Think I'll hang around here for a while. Wonder if Al Jezeera will be showing this live?
Death to AmericAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK!
Pray for W and Our Troops
It's all part of the created confusion to keep the tyrant's allies off balance.
He's a gonner before the weekend, I'm feeling pretty sure about it.
The Iraqis are testing his rope right about now.
Saddam, beware the Eids of December.
Don't know that yet, though. Could the security situation have gone south, and the Iraqis have given Saddamn back until they've got it under control?
Wrapped head-to-toe in white gauze in a wheelchair at the same rest home with JFK, would be my guess. Shot from afar with a telephoto lens, of course. A little grainy.
Dang! I've been sucked into another FR "live" thread. ~sigh~ good thing I didn't plan on getting much done this afternoon anyway.
Come on...this can't be for real....who they going to call and ask permission ...is there a Miss Manners for hangings or something?
His stunt double is in custody!
