**Another point I would like to make is that last night on Fox I heard someone say that if Saddam had really been in there we would have seen "Hurried Digging" and not people standing around.**
But what if those standing around did not know that Saddam was inside?

OK I keep hearing DNA from who ever can be used. Would someone please tell me why this would confirm it is Saddam. If the DNA comes from a female (X) to compare to Saddam's it would just prove a common female linage. If it comes from a male it just proves common male (Y) linage. It would appear that the best you could say is that it is someone from the same family line. If I remember right it was said that most of the inner circle were related to Saddam. So just because they find DNA from the same family linage doesnt prove it is Saddam.
The best I can come up with is that if they have DNA from both a daughter and son From same mother they could come with in about 75-90%. Having the DNA of the mother would help.
X1 + X2 = Wife
X3 + Y1 = Saddam
X1 + X3 = Daughter
X2 + X3 = Daughter
X1 + Y1 = Son
X2 + Y1 = Son
Using the mothers DNA you could eliminate 50% of the DNA of son and daughter. Which would leave you with the DNA supplied by Saddam.
If you do not have the mothers DNA then you can compare the sons and daughters DNA to get a close comparison. Theoretically you should be able to come close to Saddams profile.
