On Japanese tv about 10-11 years ago, I recall seeing a video, quite chilling, of Sadaam presiding over his national assembly, and then suddenly calling out the names of several he accused of being traitors and ordering their execution. Police walk down the aisles of the Assembly, seizing these men, some crying, and they are taken outside. They did not show the actual footage out in the street moments later when they were gunned down. But maybe this is the video they are looking for. Wish I could remember which Japanese Tv network, but it was not NHK for sure.

IIRC, at least a bit of this video was on the PBS episode of their FrontLine series
titled "Gunning For Sadaam", which aired last November and again this year.

Hey, that video was the NICE side of Sadaam!

That same footage (I think) was in an A&E "Biography" of S.H. According to it, his mother had a premonition and unsuccessfully tried to abort him.
