Figure it this way:

Saddamn was killed, kept on life support (No one would dare turn "off" the machine as long as one son was alive. One son killed immediately, or shortly afterwards.

Today, the second son died (from injuries in the first strike, or from bombs today, or both). Doesn't matter.

NOW - With both sons dead, there's no retribution from anybody in conplete power so Saddamn's life support is turned off.

Admin sources find this out (telephone intercepts maybe, phone taps, radio intercepts, who cares?) and spring the news -> Forcing Bagdad Bob to PROVE Saddamn islive. The admin doesn't have to prove they'red, Bagdad Bob as to prove he's alive....

AND HE DOESN'T HAVE TAPES showing Saddamn in the places still under Iraq control!

What's he gonna do?

Show Saddamn walking under the two swords? Or past the statue that was blown up? Going through one of the palaces that we've captured?

Sounds sensible to me.

#3244, details of the explosions, the Abu Dhabi report.

certainly a possibility, but you do have quite an imagination. I wouldn't go working out any elaborate scenarios without any intelligence, human or otherwise, to back it up.
