OVER/UNDER ON THE HUSSEINS

Posted on 03/18/2003 8:39:11 AM PST by Chancellor Palpatine

My prediction is that after last nights speech, the likelihood of any Hussein surviving until the beginning of hostilities went way down Using the 48 hours set last night as the dividing line, I'll say "over", but not by much - maybe a day and a half. Fellow FReepers?

Saddam kills anyone who would think of offing him, I'll take the "over" on the 48 hours.

Hussein (Sad-ham) will be offed this Friday, is my prediction. And if certain teams find him first, his head will be firmly on top of a stick!

I am going to go with Sunday for the offing of Saddam. As evil as he is, he is a tough bugger to kill.

I understand his sons have been dispatched to various sections of the country to supervise the defense. My prediction is that one or more of his sons will be the first to go (killed or held hostage by his own people for negotiation)

But also look for Hussein to try to get his family out today or tomorrow.

Normally, but the eyes in the back of his head are not going to see this one coming.

Put it like this - if you're a senior commander, and know what is about to happen, will you be eager to want to face the music in a few weeks time, the loss of position, power and perks that the regime change will bring? Not hardly. The question is whether they have the stones to pull it - and I bet someone will. It'll be like Ceaucescu.

Once Hussein is dead, his sons will go shortly after - their handlers won't be afraid anymore.
