It's sick that we remember the same thing.

His fellow Arab cowards can then enjoy watching Saddam exploding to pieces over and over again on the television.

The rest of us will enjoy that too! ;P

"...He detonates the belt killing himself but not leaving behind any visible proof that it was him .."

I watched a show on the History Channel on suicide bombers. The show revealed the point that these belt bombs always blow the heads off the bomber, leaving identification possible.

So, best case scenario.......daddy rolls over in the rack somewhere in Baghdad and accidently lights the belt off. Head lands in the street.....GI picks it up....we pack up our stuff and go home.

No I didn't know about that but it's a great point. Let's hope that is in fact what happens and Saddam made the same mistake in thinking that I just did.

They could get a real bang out of capturing Saddam, or is that Rodham Hussein.

On three now, everybody key your cell phone or radio transmitter. Ready? One - Two - Three. Bye-bye, Sadam.

LOL!

The visual running through my mind is pretty weird... disembodied Saddam heads rolling on the street.

I think I need another coffee. :)

"Many suicide belts leave both the head and the feet pretty well intact."

That's what I was thinking. It might fly through the air a good bit but by the time it lands he won't feel any pain.

Reminds me of my NFL fantasy. It was the last Steeler-Cowboys Superbowl. I kept hoping the Boys would put Dieon Sanders in on offense. He catches a pass and Rod Woodson tackles him so hard his head pops off. Mistaking Sanders head for the football, Woodson picks it up, runs into the end zone and spikes Sanders ugly f-ing face into the ground.

That's MY NFL fantasy.

I wouldnt be so sure. I heard onetime people who git the guillatine would still be alive and looking around up to 10 seconds after the slice. I would venture to say they are in excruciating pain if even for a short time. Which does please me...intense pain only to be followed by hell.
