That's three different guys for sure. The one in the middle looks like the real Saddam; the other two don't look so evil.

FOXNEWS Rick Leventhal reporting by phone, says that they WERE involved in a fire fight with enemy troops, three times SCUDS have flown over their heads, coming down by Camp Commando and another Camp New Jersey.

Very hot inside the chem suits they are wearing he says.
Continuing to roll across desert in LAV, he says. "Things are definitely happening" he said.

He said regarding the firefight, "The good guys won"...
All safe he says, it was VERY loud from his vehicle, shooting 25mm grenage like rounds...

Fox also confirming a special forces copter did go down last night, NO CASUALTIES.

GRRRRReporting for FRNews Service...
