Iraqi refugees: Al-Sahaf committed suicide 15-04-2003, 11:46

Iraqi refugees who have taken shelter at Iraq's borders near the Iranian town of Dehloran over the week have claimed that Information Minister Saeed al-Sahaf had committed suicide, the Iranian newspaper, Mardomsalari reported Tuesday. A similar report was published in Iran's Arabic newspaper, Al Wifaq.

According to these reports, al-Sahaf hanged himself a few hours before Baghdad fell to US forces on April 9th. The refugees gave no source to confirm their claim.

In his press briefing on Monday, White House Press Secretary Ari Fleischer, said the US government believed former Iraqi leaders, including deputy Prime Minister Tareq Aziz and al-Sahaf, may be hiding in Syria. (Albawaba.com)

Hasn't this thread been a blast.

Of course Baghdad Bob is probably in some luxury hotel in Syria with a bevy of hot Syria babes reading this thread and laughing.

He followed his idol Josef Goebells in this. Good riddance. Bury him in pork rinds.

How does that explain the people who did make the deck, though?

I don't believe he's smart enough to hang himself.

... I want to see him move on to Syria and become Damascus Dan.

Or register as a Freeper and become "Doug from Damascus"

I think there was a misunderstanding. Baghdad Bob was bragging about how well hung he was. I'm sure it was an easy mistake to make in the translation.

That is an instant Hall-of-Famer.

That picture had 4 grown men in my office today laughing so hard they all had tears in their eyes - me being one of them.

His suicide was slated to be his last broadcast, but there was a technical glitch. Rumors are that while he was hanging himself, he said..."You see?? I am hanging President George Bush. His stomach will grill in hell!!!"
