Saddam spills beans on missing cash

http://english.aljazeera.net/NR/exeres/5D1EE999-E67B-4D33-A53B-468A2AFAFEEE.htm

snip:
He added that "Saddam Hussein's trial would not be public since he could name countries and persons whom he gave money".....

Gee, I wonder who they may be?

Left out of the article is the amount of business Halliburton, under Dick Cheney, did with Saddam Hussein during the UN Sanctions period.

2. All 'hearsay'....

Reporters are not allowed in the room or near where Saddam is being questioned by the CIA. Someone is leaking or just inventing information to make little man bushie look good. When they report that 'sources' without any real connection to authorized people, you know that someone is inventing news...ala kkkarl rover.

3. I don't believe a thing that is coming out of Iraq about Saddam

Bush lied to bomb the place to bits on false pretenses and he will lie and lie to make it appear that he did not murder thousands of people with his lies as justification.

4. Ah yes

Saddam has crossed that magical threshold between "liar" and "spilling the beans". Amazing what languihsing for a few weeks in military custody does for someone's credibility, huh?

Was he also "spilling the beans" when he said he had no WMD? Or, was he still a liar then?

I don't believe this story for a minute. It's from ONE source on the IGC. Not from U.S. military.
