MSNBC is saying they think he's been killed too. But they are saying they won't believe it until we get some DNA evidence. Let's hope.

Meanwhile, Bush and Blair work out the new gov't. Now that will be interesting.

I'm wondering what we are going to get in War Reparations. You know they won't be able to pass that shit up. FREE MONEY! And Chicks for FREE.

DNA? Do we keep his DNA handy just for this purpose?

At the beginning of the war, they were saying that we didn't have a sample of Saddam's DNA.

If he was...he ain't...no more..

The United States struck a "leadership target" in Baghdad Monday, military officials said.

The target was believed to be one or more of the top government or military leaders in Saddam Hussein's regime, the officials said, speaking on condition of anonymity.

The strike was the result of "time sensitive" intelligence, meaning information which needed to be acted on quickly, the officials said.

The military officials said they did not know the identity of the target of the strike, or whether the target or targets had been killed.

*Fox News say's that the intell info was both electronic, and "eyes-on" confirmation. The intell said no one had left the building.

And if you’re a genealogy geek, you might appreciate this GEDCOM file for the Saddam family tree, in which an uncle becomes a father-in-law, one cousin becomes a wife, and other cousins become son-in-laws.



Tee hee.

If we did get him and his sons I sure hope the bodies are recognizable because short of that questions will not be answered for some of the more (Thinks of term that won't offend) skeptical people of the world.

As to DNA... You don't think Saddam has family that isn't located in Iraq or even if they are located in Iraq aren't involved in his government? Ask those people nicely for their DNA and compare it the bodies of those that were found. But of course that wouldn't be enough for the paranoids and anti-everythings out there.

 

[QuickDuck]

Chemical ali has been possitively identified, but it is looking more and more like saddam has skipped away.

the one that was seen in bagdad a few days ago was apparently one of his many imposters.

I think that he is currently watching from his lounge chair, having a chat to Usama. *shrug* just my oppinion

The Iraqi minister of information reports that Saddam is live and well, and planning a full scale invasion of coastal Oregon at dawn.

LMAO....Glad it's Oregon... I don't want to see Saddam in a speedo down here in Venice..

CBS said 2 bunker busters.... but CBS is a liberal commie outfit...

CBS said 2 bunker busteres.... but CBS is a liberal commie outfit...

CNN is sticking to a less specific report, "BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- The United States took fresh aim at Iraqi President Saddam Hussein and his sons early Tuesday, dropping a "large amount of ordnance" on a building in a residential neighborhood of Baghdad where intelligence reports had told them senior Iraqi leaders were meeting, U.S. officials told CNN.

The building, where intelligence reports said Saddam and possibly his two sons were, was destroyed.

U.S. officials said they don't know who they might have killed in the attack, but they said they believed the intelligence -- which U.S. officials received Monday -- was very good."

 

[SleepingWarrior]

Expect the Info Minister to come on in a few hours (If he is still able) because the bunker that was hit is reportedly located in a residential area.

Have you noticed how much more airtime that guy gets now that Arnett's not working for the US media?

Well he's funnier than Arnett...

 

[Small town girl]

From what i have picked up the bombs made a nice lil crater where Saddam and sons were (supposedly). I hope this is true. Is it just me or does anyone think the Iraqi info minister is on crack, or do a couple of guys in the office tell him all this crap about the us not banging on bagdahd's front door as a joke and the guy is too delusional to see the truth.

 

[LukkyKnight]

...the guy is too delusional to see the truth.

His material's being written by Robin Williams.

 

[SleepingWarrior]

The more he is on the better because he cracks me up as long as he isn't out there pandering snuff shots or parading POW's. Honestly we do need to see more coverage of differing views as long as they aren't completely irrational. Helps the common folk (Like me) decide what may have really happened instead of getting only one side of the story. But, the Info Minister isn't the guy to get a good view from because he just makes me laugh.

 

[SleepingWarrior]

the guy is too delusional to see the truth.

Oh you better believe he knows quite a bit of the truth but he also knows that if he says anything out of line there is always someone else that can go out in front of the media that is not in a casket.

Time to Update the tote board

Name..............Times "Killed"......Status

Saddam Hussein....... 2........ Questionable, Probably Alive
Osama Bin Laden.......3........ Still Alive.

Depends how far he was from where they think, evidently.

Associated Press

Published April 8, 2003

WASHINGTON -- An American bomber struck a residential complex in Baghdad on Monday after U.S. intelligence received information that Saddam Hussein, his sons and other top Iraqi leaders might be meeting there, U.S. officials said.

There was no immediate word on who might have been killed, but U.S. officials said they had evidence the target had been destroyed. ``There is a big hole where that target used to be,'' one U.S. official said, speaking only on condition of anonymity.

The attack was carried out by a single B-1B bomber which dropped fewer than five 2,000-pound bunker-penetrating bombs on the residential building, the officials said.

Wow, this was published tomorrow according the Mpls StarTribune. Now that's timely information.

 

[Lost Cause]

Good intell...

The news is saying the reason for the strike was SFs on the ground confirmed the electronic info already intercepted. According to the intell, top leadership was meeting there to plan the route out of Baghdad the next a.m. That would be the only reason all of the leadership would be in one place at that time. (possibly to set up government in exile)
Hopefully, the Minister of Info was there to get his ques for the next briefing.

 

[Lasher]

Is it wrong to think that a pic of the Iraqi Minister of Info's corpse with a sign around its neck saying "Baghdad is safe and secure" would be funny?

Probably, huh?
