MSNBC just reported that he was shot trying to leave Iraq. No further details available yet.

I LOVED your musical interlude! That was great! LOL!

As Saddam's spokesman, Tariq reminds me of a guy from way back, perhaps someone could help me out on the name.

Who was the Iranian spokesman during the hostage crisis? The last name was something like Ghodisi. Perhaps Tariq has followed a similar fate, because the Iranian spokesman was hung or shot.

Was Bernard Shaw or Peter Arnett injured? I know their lips were permanently attached to Tariq's rear during Gulf War I, so I'm worried about them. A lot.

Well, concerned.>br> Well, maybe just curious.
Ok, so I don't care, but it's entertaining to discuss.

Saddened.

Saddened, saddened is the word you're looking for.

>>...Know who he was shot by?...<<

I'm betting on a gunman of some sort. ;-)

"Buckwheat has been shot. And Texxon is there."

Thanks for cracking me up totally and making my day with that... I nearly choked on my orange!

Wow, MSNBC will report any rumor to try to win the war ratings.

We are going to hear a lot of rumors from ALL Networks in the coming hours/days. It is not unusual. They report what they hear and then try to find verification. Sort of like the multi-posts on FR.

I have no problem with them reporting, as long as they specify it is unconfirmed or rumor.

Aziz was one of the ones we slated for transitioning the new provisional government.....Post Saddam

Then we are idiots. He's Kruschchev to Saddams Stalin. He's been the dictators toady for decades. NO ONE from the inner circle should be allowed to survive. No one.

Is it me, or does this clown remid you of a cross bewtween Peter Sellers & Darrin's boss on Bewitched?

Did you ever see the Charles Bronson movie "The Evil That Men Do"? He looks like the bad guy in that movie.

I think he looks like the guy who played Jerry Seinfeld's father (the second one) with those big ass glasses.

-Aziz shot-

Maybe MSNBC ment to say Aziz is 'Shocked' at the site of the armada that surrounds Iraq.

[oyez]

I may post this frequently over the next few days.

BOOM-BOOM! OUT GO THE LIGHTS!

[KSCITYBOY]

Perfect post if your had said: I am concerned and saddened.

[Sacajaweau]

And now we know why that little Frenchie AmbASSador was running and weaving with his briefcase to get to the gate yesterday!!

[tomahawk]

If true, one word: Good.

[An.American.Expatriate]

"I am disappointed..."

NO, thats "I'm Shocked and Saddened¨"

[FreeTheHostages]

I TOTALLY AM ENJOYING THIS THREAD.

Let's get out some of those picnic chairs and some lemonade and get some of those chicken wings and have a big picnic.

:)

If he's mortally wounded, we won't ever have to listen to him LIE again.

That's a pretty good guess. You should be predicting the stock market or something.

Larry Tate and Tariq Aziz

Rumor was he had been diagnosed with cancer. Perhaps this is his form of joining the Hemlock Society.
