6. They've been releasing the "Most Wanted". (remember the poker deck?)
Freeing a group of politically well-connected Baath party officials, without so much as a public hearing to allow grievances to be filed, strongly hints that the US is attempting to set the groundwork for another dictatorship.

Iraq's Most Wanted freed without charges or public hearing.

For all the fear-mongering about Saddam's inner-circle, such as "Ms. Anthrax" (5 of hearts) in the lead-up to the Iraqi War, one would think that they would at least be held for trail with their boss instead of getting a US-funded flight to Jordan.

If the Iraqi War was supposed to be about neutralizing the threat of proliferating WMDs, why would the government have released Rihab Rashid Taha (aka "Dr Germ"), who in 1999 was named as "One of the worlds most dangerous women" by the Defense Intelligence Agency. (DIA) In September of 2004 Taha was important enough to Iraqi insurgents that they kidnapped Kenneth Bigly, and then executed him when their demands that she be released were ignored.

Well, she's free now. It's possible those insurgents finally found a hostage that was valuable enough to the US to grant her freedom.<snip>
