    Funny how I'm watching CNN and see people saying to hell with Saddam :O

    Pretty weird if you ask me, especially his beard lol, VERY bad looking beard, heck it doesn't even match his hair.

    EDIT : I forgot to add this...

    YAY! Half the war is won!

    It seems the some sites such as Fark and Slashdot, are simply not reporting on this. Despite their tendancy to post every bit of bad news the minute it happens... And I know the Slashdot mods aren't sleeping, as they just posted "Powerpoint Makes You Stupid" at 7:35 EST.

    What'd you expect? This is going to be on all the major tv channels for at least a week, then the thick wave of patriotism will set in.



    My theory is that they've found him for a while now, then broke his "spirit" so he looks tired and pathetic.

    hmmmm coming to think of it, this is going to be quite interesting.

    Ok he's going off to jail...
    Now we gotta deal with people wanting to kill him because they know where he is...
    Now we gotta deal with people wanting to free him because they know where he is...

    Best bet... kill him. Removes the worry.

    If I were him, I'd kill myself and look like a Christ figure to the "rebels". Besides, this would also lessen the American victory.

    "Ladies and gentleman, we got him!"

    Heard he is co-operating. What he is talking about we don't know though...

    Is it him?
    Well the Americans won't look too good if it's not him, will they? They would have kepted it hush-hush until the were 99% sure.

    Will he be sentanced to death?
    I don't think so, that will turn him into a martar. Not what the Anglo-American alliance wants.

    Is the war over?
    Well they said it was over ages ago. Attacks will contiue but they will be anti-ocupationist or to get the Americans to release him.

    What now?
    Only time will tell, sooner or later, time will tell...

    I heard he tryed to commit suicide when he was found, but failed or was stopped. Probably too much of a coward to take his own life. Your not gonna stop the attempt on your life when the US army's 4th infantry division and special forces are pointing guns at you.

    *Saddam about to shave in the basement.*
    *Suddenly US Marines storm in through the doors and rappel through sky lights.*
    Marine 1 "Put the razor/cyninde down or we shoot..."
    *The marines coax as many metallic sounds from their weapons as possible.*
    Marine 2 "But.. Err... Sarge doesn't he want to die?"
    Marine 1 "Shoot to maim!"
    *Gun fire*

    He was captured with out a shot being fired so it sounds like he gave himself up. Tierd of running?

    He (and his buddies) are iraqi journalists. How do you think you'd react if a guy that had killed countless friends of yours was captured after months of evading arrest?

    Pretty amazing stuff. Well done, 4th ID.

    dunno mons but I sure as heck wouldn't shout about it at a pre-recorded film on TVs shown in a press conference. I'd definitely say more than the same phrase over and over and over and over and over again too =P
