| Saddam has left no legacy but cowardice | |
| 2004-12-19 | |
| By Haider Saeed A year ago, US forces arrested Saddam Hussein in a hideout in Tikrit. But he did not live up to our expectations of committing suicide or being killed in a last battle against his enemies. The novels of dictators usually end with personal honour. But Saddam did not get even this honor. Saddam surrendered happily because he was too cowardly to commit suicide. The last chapter of Saddam's novel is still open. And nothing remains of Saddam for the future. Hitler left Nazism. Saddam left nothing but death and destruction. (Al-Mada is issued daily by Al-Mada institution for Media, Culture, and Arts.)
