Page 1 of 2 It occurred to me this morning that something isn't adding up about all this noise about Saddam, his TV appearances, tapes, battles, statements... Maybe he really is alive, we know it, and we're just not admitting it.
What would infuriate a megalomaniac like Saddam Hussein more than the United States government knowing he was alive, but constantly bantering about prerecorded messages, conjecture about him being alive or dead, questioning who was in charge of his military? Nothing, and Donnald Rumsfield knows that. What do you think? Read the rest, tell us what you think.

If Saddam is in hiding, and is recording those messages to be shown on TV, nothing would be more prone to bring him out of hiding than us claiming that, “well, there's no real proof that he hasn't assumed room temperature... but there's really nothing to prove that he has.” If he is alive, all we need to do is keep this up until he gets indignant enough to pop his arrogant head up and scream, “I AM ALIVE, you fool!” Then we can simply blow it off. If he is dead, this may serve to bring forth the body that has taken control of the Iraqi military – and someone apparently has.
In the mean time, it's a guessing game.
