#1 Wasn't that the Information Ministers office that just got lit up an hour ago. I wouldn't get too personal discussing the "infidels" that are racing up Route 80... There may be no "halal hotdogs" or prayer mats left for you when you get checked into your new digs later this week. The "mecenaries" do have some nice plastic slippers and "no vision" googles waiting for you however...

#5 Information Minister Mohammed Said Sahhaf declared Thursday that Iraq will treat U.S. and British prisoners of war as mercenaries over whom no international law applies.

It's pretty obvious that Hussein's Iraq is a place where NO law applies. At least, no law other than Saddam's.
