#1 OOPs, looks like the "looters" and arsonists missed some of the evidence they were bent on destroying.

#4 How many Jacqueses, Vladimirs and Gerhards do you expect will turn up? I'm guessing at least one each, given Saddam's confidence in the French, Germans and Russians to hold us off after the aerial campaign.

#5 Some probably didn't want money, just teh chance to party down with Uday. I hope Sadaam is caught with a handbag full of condoms and Viagra also.

#6 Sadaam's agents in Iran might be useful.

#7 Wonder how many people will commit 'suicide' as the information from these files begins to come out. Would LOVE to see the names of Hollywood gadflies whose names appear in these files. Yep, we're going to be 'living in interesting times' over the next couple of years. I love it!

#8 S.H.
Saddam's agents in the United States and Hollywierd would be useful to see too....

O.P.
Democratic (and Republician) Gadflies too. Not to mention some of the Anti-war organizations..... Interesting times indeed... if they see the light of day....

#9 Wonder if they'll actually try and recoup the cash. A new Hamilton $20 says R. Fisk is on the list.

#10 Don't waste your money Brainiac, Fisk does it for the joy of the thing.

#11 Probably true, just reminds me of that ironic pummeling he took. My other choice is Don Knotts, that guy has always had that Baathist look to him.

#12 Knotts? lol

Careful there. That's a WWII vet you're talking about.

#14 Wouldn't it be a hoot to find Stan Blather's name there, or Terry "The Tyrant" McAuliffe? Wouldn't several people have a coronary if that made the light of day? I do look forward to a large part of this information becoming public knowledge...

#15

prominent personalities and political figures who accepted money from Iraq as they defended Hussein publicly or pressed his causes.

C'mon, name names! (Besides George Galloway, of course.) Let the fun begin!

#16 OP, I don't know if I would be happy or said that major political figures helped Sadaam for money. On one hand we would have caught them and ruined they're reputation. That's assuming they're Democrat or anti-war. On the other hand, it shows just how much our political system has fallen. I'm not going to name anybody, but I think we all know who started the political collapse.
