See my post 2748. I agree with you.
Ah, gotcha. I can never get caught up on these threads so I miss lots of posts! Any-hoo, the whole thing (sans a horde of bodyguards, letting people grab his hand and pull him along, jumping up on a table--yeah, right) just doesn't ring true with the Saddam of recent years.
Keep up the good posts...I read what I can when I can! I love the insight here.
