INC: Former Iraqi information minister negotiates surrender deal

27-04-2003, 20:56

An official at Iraq's leading opposition group, the Iraqi National Congress (INC) has disclosed to Al Bawaba that in the past two days there has been contacts with Mohammad Said al-Sahaf, Saddam Hussein's Information Minister, regarding his surrender. According to Nabil al Musawi, the deal will be completed soon.

Musawi said that although al-Sahaf's name is not included on the list of most wanted Iraqis by US forces, "he is wanted by the Iraqis".

Last week, the Portuguese daily Diario de Noticias reported that the minister whose briefings made him a worldwide celebrity during the recent war, tried to hand himself in via a contact with Portuguese journalists. (Albawaba.com)

He is not surrendering. He is actually capturing an American unit, while unarmed.

And he has agreed as part of the surrender deal to take over the Jimmy Kimmel show on ABC late night.

The only sticking point is whether Bush surrenders to him in Baghdad or Washington, DC.

I'm so glad to hear this! Even GWB said he found him funny. I just wonder if he understands what great comic relief he was for so many of us. Does he know talking dolls are being made to look and sound like him and are being sold in the USA? If so, what reaction would he have to this?

I'm so glad he'll be coming back so we can eventually find out the answers to these and many other pressing Baghdad Bob questions.

Well, what the hell?! I admit I haven't been following this war as much as I should have (we won too fast to pay proper attention), but the last I heard this guy killed himself.

Would someone please straighten this out; is he alive or dead?

Cripes, this guy has more lives than a cat, or Chemical Ali even.

I'm quite sure the reports of his suicide were greatly exaggerated.

"I am more than happy to negotiate the surrender of the American forces. This has been a great victory for Iraq. We are already patrolling Baghdad in captured American tanks and taking down some of Saddam's statues for refinishing."

Surrender to whom? We Americans were driven out of Iraq.

Yes, he has them "tropped".

I imagine him opening a chain of self-confidence schools. Nothing could ever get you down because it wouldn't exist in your world....as a matter of fact isn't that already a Bill Clinton thing? Hmmm, better go back to the drawing board.
