Sen. Levin Reveals Link Between CIA and Saddam - Scrappleface
2003-02-14
Satire Alert!
2003-02-13) -- U.S. Senator Carl Levin, D-MI, today announced that the government of Iraq is conspiring with the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) to frustrate the efforts of United Nations weapons inspectors.

"All this time we thought Saddam was in league with Bin Laden," the Senator said, "but in fact he's in cahoots with [CIA Director] George Tenet."

"They both know where the weapons are," he said. "And neither one will reveal the locations. I also have it on good authority that Tenet and Hussein have never been seen together in public."

"Here's my theory," the Michigan Democrat continued. "The whole thing is a big scam. Saddam and Tenet whip up this false crisis. As long as neither Saddam, nor Tenet, reveal the locations of the WMD, we go to war. The Iraqi soldiers drop their weapons and raise their undies on sticks to surrender. Meanwhile, Tenet gets one of Saddam's body-doubles snuffed. The U.S. trots out the corpse for public display. The people of Iraq sing 'Ding, dong the dictator's dead!' And Saddam is set up with a nice little ranch home near Wilkes-Barre, Pa, and a job at Krispy-Kreme."

U.S. Concedes Home Field Advantage to Iraq
(2003-02-13) -- U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell announced today that if it comes to war, the United States will concede "home field advantage" to the Iraqi army.

"It's the least we can do," said Mr. Powell. "Rather than fight this war on our turf, or on some neutral battlefield, we'll let Saddam Hussein stay home and we'll bring our team to him."

"The U.S. visit will likely change Mr. Hussein's plans to take his team on the road," he added.
