I think this is a set-up!

Possible. It would be interesting to learn what the Israelis had to do to get this man to talk. Also, how did he escape ? The ultimate set-up would be for Saddam and the ruling Ba'ath party to secretly escape to Iran. And then when US troops were in Baghdad, set off a whole bunch of chemical and biological weapons. Of course this would require the Socialist dictator to be willing to sacrifice his people for his 'utopian ideal'. Then the Iranians, with Saddam in tow, counter attack our confused forces in and around baghdad.

I thought set-up, too, until I realized the Israelis had their hands on him.

Like the CIA, the SEALS, the Rangers, and the Marines, the Isrealis would know in a minute if this guy was not legit. He would have been an unreported bloodstain in the sand, after all information was extraced, if he was a ruse.

Interesting theory!
