What Did Saddam Hussein Write on His Hand?
Magnifying Glass | 12-29-2006 | brianbaldwin

Posted on 12/29/2006 11:18:47 PM PST by Brian_Baldwin

I was running a PVR (Personal Video Recorder) of the live coverage of the Saddam Hussein execution on FOX News Cable. I noticed they were playing some video from his trial, where he’s holding up one of his hands – I notice he has scribbled personal notes on his hand with a Sharpie pen.

This aroused my curiosity, since (embarrassingly) I have at times found myself without a notepad and have scribbled personal notations on my left hand to note down some important information such as a phone number or other.

I reran the video and took a snap of this image, Saddam Hussein holding up his hand, the hand full of scribbles.

I zoomed up on his hand.

I couldn’t see exactly what it was, some Arabic writing and such. I zoomed in closer, which didn’t help much. And then . . .

My God.

I think I can see something – Roman script – and,

. . . my God . . . it looks like is says:

“Please Call Jesse Jackson”

Writing on Saddam Hussein's hand has been studied over the
past few months. And scientists have determined it was
written in his own personal language.

It reads,
Dirka Dirka.

Which means,,
It's Bush's Fault..

CNN is closely following the story.

That's why they call it handwriting, silly.
