I think he's DEAD. He runs the country using fear and terror. Soldiers are already giving up. He could prevent alot of that if he would appear with certainty that he is alive.

What was reported on ABC?

US intelligence analyzed the tape and have confirmed that it's contents indicate it was made after our initial bombing.

[ISonnet]

When we see him with a copy of the New York Times

"I understand your point, but how in the heck is anyone in Bagdad going to get a copy of the NYT or any newspaper not printed in the city for that matter?"

Online. Gotta be a working connection somewhere in the country, no? I agree the paperboy may be off his game but in the age of info, they could produce something pretty quick.

No reason why you should. You can tell that it's a longbow by the "bulb" on top of the rotors. That's the fire control radar. Prior to the bird's the Apache targeting system used just lasers.

[republicanwizard]

It doesn't look like him to me. He has lost a lot of weight. His clothes fit loosely on him. Look at that green scarf around his neck.

[texasbluebell]

Yeah, you're right, it's one of his doubles.

[ArneFufkin]

The tape was played 15 minutes ago! The NSC and CIA have "examined" it already? LMAO

[dogbyte12]

As I pointed out in the thread about this tape, the only event Saddam mentions is the one hyped by Iraqi tv. We don't even believe a farmer shot down the chopper. He doesn't mention the fighters holding onto Basra. He doesn't mention the fragging incident, he doesn't mention the POW's, he doesn't mention a whole slew of things that could be used to cheer up his troops. Why wouldn't he get that propaganda out to his people?

He's dead Jim.

[CasearianDaoist]

That's reason enough to bomb him.

[PhiKapMom]

LOL!!! Might just work!

[spectre]

"Once anything goes down, the Iraqi TV hyped it, under orders from the Baath people in Bagdad, and there goes Saddam praising the farmer.
I will ask again... is there any reason why Saddam would not want to praise the Muslim soldier who fragged his officers, and to encourage others to do the same?

Excellent point. Worth pondering..

i know its a video tape, but where is it being broadcast from?

[TomB]

No by shoulder fired SAMs.

No, the BlackHawks in Mog were taken down by RPGs.

[yonif]

I always thought he ran away to Libya, like it was reported he would do a few months before the war started.

[Renegade]

What is the problem ??? All they have to do is program Saddam into the face recognition program that is being used on law abiding citizens, compare the REAL Saddam to all the videos, and they WILL know if it is the real Saddam . They say even disquises can't defeat this program ..

[The Great Satan]

Uh, they have ears. Please, let's not keep up with this silliness. The United States knew Saddam would go to ground when the bombs started falling, and they knew that it would play to taunt the Iraqis about that. Why would they not do that, when they could?

[ArneFufkin]

From an Al Jazeera, Abu Dhabi or BBC feed - Peter Arnett's hotel room ....

[Calpernia]

I don't know if he ran anywhere (pondering). I still want to know why Russia has people at their Embassy in Iraq.

[Timesink]

I knew it! I knew there had to be a reason the Iraqi army wasn't surrendering en masse.
