I found it interesting that they said he committed suicide with four bullet wounds to the head, so I'm not exactly sure how he died," Bush commented.
Also that bit caught my eye. I don't know if Dubya was just seizing upon the opportunity to say that or if he was literally demonstrating something to Saddam. He shows Saddam that he knows the truth by pointing out the exact number of gunshot wounds and then says "you can't hide forever".
Well, if we didn't do it, I would figure Bush's statement also means US Intelligence also knows Saddam didn't have it done. My reasoning, if Bush gave the details to show he knew and then went on to send Saddam the "you can't hide" message- he would have to have known Saddam didn't do it or obviously Saddam would know he was bluffing.
Then again... Maybe Saddam did do it but Bush is giving away that little detail to remind Saddam that we have people on the inside in Iraq- people who he trusts- and that sooner or later he's going to wake up in Hell and look back at his own corpse with a knife sticking out the back.
Who knows? Wheels within wheels. Maybe Israel did it to send a message to Saddam- "we can get you if we have to- we can strike deep"- to encourage him not to use his Scuds against Israel this time around. They're letting him know maybe that they'll retaliate in a way he doesn't expect.
Ach, questions questions. I just hope I don't die before I find out the answers. I hope someone fills us all in on the details one day.
Anyone know where Dr. Kervorkian was at that time?
