Family’s probably wishing they’d sprung the bucks for a perpetual care contract.

You need a massive pyramid to serve as a tomb if you plan on being a Middle East despot. It can shrug off a few artillery shells.

The savage, bloody fighting is the true monument to Saddam.

Should have wrapped him in pigskin and dumped him in the ocean.

Like Obama ordered for Osama.

I think he had it built when he was in power. I don't believe he's buried there.

That makes sense. Do they even know where he is buried?

He is still very popular in his home town and many Sunni Arab areas, especially since the Iraqi government became shia sectarians. In hindsight, not Iraq and the world would have been a better place if we had left the moustachioed bastard in place.
