Special Force Operatives from CIA vidoetaped Saddam and his leaders entering the bunker.

Got positive ID from Langley that Saddam, his sons and most of the Military inner circle was there.

Stealth bombers dropped two 2,000 lb. bombs on the bunker chimney while special ops identified the target with lasers immediately to position 30 Tomahawk missiles on the complex.

No one could have survived the attack not even in a safe. Video was taken of Saddam with a gas mask over his face dug out of the complex. Everyone killed inside Saddams sons and all top generals.

Deputy Iraq Prime Minister Tarik Aziz holds emergency meeting the next day making frantic cell phone calls to remaining Saddam/Baath Party leaderhip officials. Minutes later they show up wanting to know what has happened.

Langley triangulates the desperate cell phone calls from Ambassador Aziz and sends 20 Cruise Missiles through the roof. Baath Party political Leadship terminated.

CIA is leaving electricity and telephone lines up for as long as there is surveillance advantage to be gained tapping their sources electronically.

Only two Iraqi top Military/Political officials known to have survived- Public Relations Spokesperson for the Defence Department and Minister of Defence Lt. General Sultan Hashem Ahmed.

The Iraqis have not dug out the rest of the bodies yet except for Saddams

"Hussein would never have allowed executed POWs to be shown on television."

If not, he's a liar... but tell us something we don't know...

[sinkspur]

Flushing Aziz out with the reports of his defection lined up all the ducks.

That was brilliant, wasn't it?

It appears that these divisions and units are on their own, so naturally they'd resort to brutality; that's the way they treat their own people.

This makes me more fearful that some renegade commander will unleash chemical weapons. Nobody's coordinating anything in Iraq.

[ewing]

[Mihalis]

I'm also inclined to think that the execution of POW's is an indication they're leaderless.

[madison10]

Would the Networks say so if they knew? FOX might. Otherwise...the other major networks would think it too good to report.

[Walkin Man]

hmmm..It would appear that Saddam has a pitchfork in his @$$ right about now!

[COBOL2Java]

This makes me more fearful that some renegade commander will unleash chemical weapons. Nobody's coordinating anything in Iraq.

Agreed. Thuggish underlings may not be very smart. That they may unleash their WMD stores is what I fear the most.

[DeFault User]

The link goes to a description of the talk show. I tried signing up on WABC but still can't find it. Please help.

[ewing]

Or a renegade commander will release chemical weapons inside Baghdad..

[ItsBacon]

I'd never noticed the resemblance of Saddam and Stalin until now, but it is quite spooky. And they both had a little problem with killing their own citizens...

[GreenHornet]

"Langley triangulates the desperate cell phone calls from Ambassador Aziz and sends 20 Cruise Missiles through the roof. Baath Party political Leadship terminated."

LizardQueen: I imagined the same scenario that you did:

Aziz to Baath Party: "Can you hear me now?.....Ohhhhh S***!!!!!

[bonesmccoy]

ewing,

great report... so who is coordinating the resistance in southern iraq?

is that from independent field operative types?

[ewing]

Someone posted a transcript of the conversation during the show on the FR 'Iraq Situation Thread- Day 4' last night live about 1AM Eastern..I got the account from there (about post #200)

[rintense]

Geez. How stupid is/was Saddam to be in a building hours after the Bush deadline? Obviously the fool thought Bush was bluffing.

Dead wrong. And I mean dead.

[McGruff]

Batchelor and Alexander are not Art Bell in any way shape or form. Ridiculous comparison

A quote from their webpage linked above:

Also, they have added a new show, Conspiracy Radio, now and again on Saturday Night, to explore the unsolved political mysteries that color the daily headlines, such as the JFK assassination, the Watergate and Whitewater investigations, the Pardongate probe.

[witnesstothefall]

Hard to know what is true. If this is a mindf*ck by Sadaam, he's better than I thought.

[RobFromGa]

I believe this is probably accurate at least as far as Saddam concerned...

[SauronOfMordor]

Can't do it. A huge civil war would break out in Baghdad, complicating our occupation efforts immensely. We need 100,000 soldiers in the city before we confirm Saddam's death.

Exactly. The regular populace would likely rise up and kill every Ba'ath Party member and every suspected Secret Police informer they could find. And the down side of this is?

[Alberta's Child]

We went through this already on another thread last night.

With all due respect to those two radio hosts, they are full of sh!t at least 50% of the time.
