Report: Saddam son suffers from brain hemorrhage |
2003-03-20 |
Uday, the elder son of Iraqi President Saddam Hussein, struck by brain hemorrhage following conflict with a member of Saddam's Fedayeen on Thursday. He has a brain? The Iranian news agency, IRNA, quoted sources in northern Iraq as saying that tough and indecent orders, issued by Uday, who heads Saddam's Fedayeen, had provoked the conflict as the young man attacked Uday. Too tough and indecent for a Fedayeen, I wonder what that was? Did he tell him to stop beating somebody? Uday's bodyguards then beat the man to injury, the unconfirmed report said. I'll bet they did. According to some observers, the recent report on Uday could be part of the American and the Iraqi opposition propaganda campaign against Saddam Hussein's regime. I think we'd come up with something better than that. FOLLOWUP: Here it is from another source, slightly different story... Saddam Hussein's eldest son Uday suffered a cerebral hemorrhage this morning. According to Iranian news agency IRNA, Uday was involved in a fight with his father's body guard last night. There is no information about Uday's current condition. Saddam Hussein's aides are refusing to confirm this information although they admit that a fight did indeed take place in Saddam's palace. |

#12 Oh, for crying out loud--I took that blond in the fishnets home one drunken night in college. Now I find out it was Uday--I should have married her and got into the family business. |

#7 Too bad it wasn't a 9mm brain hemorrhage. |

#6 Speaking of last night, anyone else get the distinct feeling that it was NOT Saddam? His face looked slightly...off. As much of his face that I could see behind those enourmous glasses, anyway. |

#5 I wonder if this is at all related to the attack on Uday (he's the dumb one) at a boating club a few days ago. I wouldn't be surprised if the "tough and indecent order" involved sodomy in the club boathouse! |

#4 A 2,000 JDAMS hemorrhage, I'll bet. But seriously, what better way to explain Uday's sudden death/disappearance. This would also explain why "Saddam" (or his double) looked so shaken last night. |

#2 How could anyone tell that the hemorrhage is recent? Our propaganda would probably say that Uday is a sissy girl and likes dogs and pigs. And he wears kneehigh stockings. |
