Iraq
Commander Says Saddam Likely in Tikrit
2003-09-05
Moved out of Mosul, did he?
Deposed Iraqi President Saddam Hussein probably is in hiding in or around his hometown of Tikrit, the commander of American troops there said Friday. Maj. Gen. Ray Odierno said troops from the 4th Infantry Division had captured several of Saddam's former bodyguards in the past month. "If he makes a mistake, we'll have him," Odierno said. Odierno has recently said that it's believed Saddam has been moving and changing hiding places three or four times a day - a tactic he has perfected over the years to avoid would-be assassins.

#7   I bet it's a bitch for the Pharmacy to deliver his Prozac to him this way. I can see the pissed off delivery guy outside his "latest" address.

"SADAAM, YOU MOTHER OF ALL SONS OF A BITCHES! YOU DID IT TO ME AGAIN! YOU SORRY FAT MOTHER *UCKER!""

#2  US: pressure and patience. We will get him. His luck barrel is running out. Mosul is too hot for him. The more stability we creat in these areas, the easier it will be for the locals to give tips without fear of retribution.
