The Command Post
Iraq

Iraqi commentator cites an eye witness, saying to al-Jazeera that Saddam is dead.

So says this Russian site. The commantator is named Amer Haffah. The alleged eye witness is said to have been guarding the meeting in al-Mansur in which Saddam was taking part just before the bombing by the US.

The site cites ITAR-TASS corr. Victor Lebedev.

Yep, doesn't get any clearer than that. He's still alive and in seria.

I have never heard more cynical people in all of my born days!

Well, maybe the IRS agent that audited me, but let's not open old wounds ---

Saddam was last seen with Elvis, boarding a flying saucer on the way to visit Michael Jackson at Neverland.

Fine. If killed at the meeting there will be some DNA at the scene. Until such confirmation one should assume he's alive.

Al Jazeera would report that the moon's made of green cheese if an arab information minister said it.

This is the most unreliable source of information.

It's a Russian site reporting on an item from Al-Jazzera about some "eye witness".

Rolling dice is about as reliable.

Yes,he is still alive,absolutely.That man,over there,with the seeing eye-dog,he saw Saddam.

ElCaptainAmerica, Hear! Hear!

...but I do have to admit that I read the cover of the tabloids in the checkout stand. Hey, maybe the enquirer will get a scoop interview with Saddam?!

Speaking of tabloids, do you think it's just a coincidence that the tabloids are just now announcing the discovery of oil on the moon?

Just when we get into OPEC, now the tabloids are trying to destabilize that for us.
