3. Saddam was known to have many doubles.

I would expect that they have done DNA tests and/or finger printing. However, based on the lies and deceit of our government, that doesn't guarantee that the man on trial is Saddam.

5. Oh yeah

a DNA test should be a good evidence.

Where is it?

As I remember they claimed that they had one, very soon after Saddams capture last December, but it was very dubios- the claims came from iraqi sources- and the U.S. never claim to have made an DNA-test.

Do you know more to correct me?

I also await the DNA test for killed Saddam sons Udai und Kusai. They promised to deliver it. Wait, taht was over two years ago.

I'm still waiting.

6. Nope. Don't know any more to tell you.

There's so much lying going on these days it wouldn't suprise me if they did a DNA test, discovered that it wasn't Saddam. And said, "Well, shit. We gotta try somebody. Might as well be the 'look-alike.' Lose the test."

I want a verified DNA test when Cheney comes up for the firing squad.

4. the different angles of the two photos

could easily account for that subtle difference. the first photo is much more direct, the second one is looking down at a slight angle. useless photos to base a comparison on.
