Let's hope Saddam fell into a vat of sarin gas...Kill two birds with one stone: find Saddam, AND his WMD.

I'm glad they captured this guy, but it might have been wise to wait until they 'debrief him' before they go on about all that he may know.

Good point. Guess our media has a case of the 'can't help its' when it comes to talking.

Yes! . . . This is the best capture yet. Saddam won't be far behind if he's alive and if we apply the proper pressure to this swaggering POS.

I'm not interested in where Saddam might be living...I'm interested in where his rotting carcass is.

This guy definitely knows alot. He was the closest figure to Saddam. He is/was arguably closer than Qusay, and for sure more closely than psycho Oday. He acted as Saddam's Secretary, National Security advisor, and bodyguard. This was a guy in a position to know. A big fish.

Big question here is how did Hussein get seperated from his hemmorhoid. Maybe the hemmorhoid wasn't into Viking funeral arrangements.

It will be much more humiliating to militant Arabs to capture Saddam alive.

hi demlosers;

I have a deck of the Most Wanted Iraqis, and I make it my habit to pull out of the deck those cards symbolizing the Iraqis that we've captured. I seem to be out of sync, as I've got 27 captured, where I thought I heard on the news that we're now up to 32? Do you happen to have an updated list of the Iraqi Most Wanted?

Thanks, Emma

Let the toe-nail-pulling begin! I say we turn him over to Marcellas Wallace - time to get medieval!

Here's 2 recent captures:

Sayf al-Din al-Mashadani, No. 46 on the list. He was the regional leader of Saddam's Baath Party in the Muthanna region of southwestern Iraq.

Also captured was No. 55, Sad Abd al-Majid al-Faysal. He was the Baath Party regional chairman for the area around Tikrit, Saddam's hometown and power base.

I think that if Saddam were still alive, this guy would have been killed by now.

Do you know if anyone has a comprehensive summary of those we've captured or killed?

Thanks, Emma

One more recent capture:

Aziz Saleh al-Numan now the second highest-ranking capture on the list of the 55 most-wanted Iraqis. He was No. 8 on Central Command's list, the king of diamonds.
