What is the hurry?

Saddam could hang as soon as this week:
"There are reports that the U.S. military will hand over Saddam Hussein to the Iraqi government for execution within 36 hours.

Sources say the former Iraqi dictator's execution by hanging could come as early as this week; which is consistent with what an unnamed Iraqi official told the Associated Foreign Press, "We will not waste time. We will look at the security situation and [Saddam and his convicted co-defendants] will be executed immediately at the very first opportunity we get after the appeals chamber finalizes the verdicts.""

Unless it's to hide something like this.... maybe we never captured Saddam Hussein:

"The outcome of their meeting turned out to be quite scandalous. Sajina claims that the person she encountered was not her husband, but his double. If someone were to say for sure that it was not insinuation, it would have been easy to believe the wife with a 25-year experience. It is also possible to assume that Saddam has simply changed since the day of his sons' deaths, June 24 2003. This however is highly unlikely. In case we believe Hussein’s wife, all DNA testing of the ex-Iraqi leader should be considered a mere fake. Overall, today there remain more questions then there are answers.

On the other hand however, those statements of Hussein's wife can in fact be quite understandable. After all, this is the easiest way to demoralize an enemy."


Maybe he and Kenneth Lay are hanging out in Paraguay....
