Al-Sahhaf denies Saddam execution
BAGHDAD — Amidst celebratory gunfire all over Shiite and Kurdish areas of Iraq over the execution of former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein, doubts are being raised over the actual veracity of the execution, the most notable of which is coming from Mohammed Saeed al-Sahhaf, Saddam’s former information minister. Speaking on Tucson’s favorite television show, Amy Goodman’s "Democracy Now!", al-Sahhaf declared "Saddam and his followers are fighting valiantly against the American infidels before the gallows as we speak. He is sending them to God, who will roast their stomachs in hell. Bush’s international gang of colonial bastards is being pushed into the swamp as we speak."
Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) in turn called for an immediate Congressional investigation into further allegations that Saddam would be inhumanely cut into quarters and sent to the four corners of Mecca.
LOL! You really had me there for a minute. Happy new year!
