Saddam may be a real carrot and stick guy, but my first familiarity with this technique was with the Clintons.
I think it more likely that the ADA was pressured by Hillary than that she was pressured by an emissary of Saddam.
Of course, they could be one and the same.
I would caution against focusing on this specific incident. What is interesting is what it tells us about Scott Ritter. As for the speculation about an hypothetical Hillary connection, that strikes me as perverse. The important question is why Scott Ritter turned from being a gung-ho opponent of the Iraqi regime to its biggest apologist. That has nothing to do with Hillary Clinton.
