Will the real Saddam Hussein please stand up?
Remember all the talk about Saddam having a bunch of look a likes? So how do we know for sure that this isn't a look a like? The DNA test hasn't been completed yet, so why the big announcement before we are 100% sure?

It looks like Saddam to me, but so do the fake one's. Something stinks about this. Don't get me wrong, I hope that it is Hussein so we can get down to the fact that the attacks on US troops are not Brought on by Saddam and his troops but rather the Iraqi people.

So will the real Saddam Hussein please stand up.

1. It looks like the real Saddam...
unless there was a regular fake one who was posing as Saddam at times and photographed in public appearances.

2. The Bearded One
looks real enough, it's the clean shaven replacement that has me unnerved. I think we are now viewing a double and SH has electrodes attached to his scrotum in a US friendly country.

Look at the moustache. How could it be that much bushier after shaving?

3. Oh, it's him alright. My guess is they've had him for a while...
Just waiting until they could set up the Iraqi tribunals.

... they didn't stumble on to him 24 hours ago. The timing and circumstances of his "capture" are total bullsh*t! The whole thing's much too convenient, as usual. He's been carted out because Georgie and Dick are taking a lot of heat about Iraq, Halliburton and their foreign policy screw ups.

Between now and November 2004, I fully expect the US to discover evidence that:
1) Links Saddam and Osama
2) Proves Saddam had WMDs
3) Proves Saddam was connected to 9/11
4) Proves Saddam was plotting further attacks on the US and Britain (must bail the poodle out, too)
5) Proves Syria and Iran are a major threat (must keep the war machine going)
6) Proves the Internet has been used extensively by the terrorists (must have an excuse to shut it down and return the masses to ignorance)

Have I missed any? :tinfoilhat:

5. As said in another thread....
"Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar."
