Sounds like these guys would rather be in our custody than worry about the wrath of saddam. Interesting development.

In this case better the 'devil' you don't know, then the one you do.

That's exactly what a former weapons inspector said recently. That those captured think prison is better than living in saddam's terror. He also pointed out that the threat always remains: you "tell", we kill your family.
