very boisterous shooting in the air from all kinds of weapons in celebration of the news

Why don’t they just hoot and cheer?

They’re inviting some possible misunderstanding, seeing as they are living in a war zone. And those bullets have to come down somewhere.

Plus, bullets cost money, if they can even buy them anymore over there.

We should give them New Year’s Eve noisemakers and party hats when we really capture him.

[The Dude Abides]

I can see the psy-ops now. A c-130 dropping noise-makers, hats, and leaflets with the s-o-b's sorry mug shot at git-mo.

I love that plan. If I was in charge of psyops, I'd hire you on the spot.

[RoseofTexas]

This would be SOOOOOOOOOO wonderful, but it's just pure FICTION! :(

[SierraWasp]

I gots my danged finger, toes and LEGS crossed!!!

You mean the rumor is fictitious -- right? -- not that there wasn't a celebration of the Shi'is who believed the rumor. That, and the fact that the videotape was released in an apparent response to the celebration, is encouraging news.

When it comes to these stories, I am an adopted critter from Mo..

[johnb838]

No... it's true. And you know what else? France is banning the term E-Mail

[princess leah]

Wouldn't that just make the dems poop in their pants? Electrical stimulus big time until Saddam reveals that he WAS trying to acquire uranium and THEN watch the sparks fly! IMPEACH EVERY CONGRESSMAN AND WOMAN WHO CLAIMED BUSH LIED~ok, I'm done dreamin' here!

[Grampa Dave]

If so, watch the stock market fly next week.

GW squashes the Yellow Cake Traitors, and their buddy $oddomite is arrested!

[Wallaby]

.>videotape was release

Oops -- make that audiotape.

[livius]

This may sound a little too hopeful, but I saw a brief notice this morning of FR that three "important" Baathists had been nabbed by us in Northern Iraq. No more information.

Certainly, this news would get out very fast through the same channels that had been supporting Saddam, and would probably reach his enemies (Shia) pretty quickly, too.

I don't know. But wouldn't it be wonderful????

[cavtrooper21]

Amen to that.
I'll belive it when I see him in a blaze orange suit and leg irons.....
Untill then, all bets are off!

[Mike Darancette]

Spreading rumors about the capture/death of Saddam and or his sons to judge the response of the people would not be a bad idea. Keeps the Democrats on their toes too.
