I would have prefered capturing him DEAD. No trial, no expensive years behind bars and no fear of his cronies trying to rescue him.

Should have sunk a bullet between his eyes first, then worry about DNA. If they were wrong, just come up with a convenient excuse to justify it.

They say they are going to have a press conference in Bagdad around 7:00AM. It appears to be a little late as it is already 7:00AM.

They are being honest, it will not stop the unrest……..
It will however go along way towards settling the fear that the Iraq has had since this started. The Iraqi’s have believed for day one that unless he was captured they STRONGLY assumed he would rise again.

Now some and not all can start believing Saddam and he alone will not rise again.
These are a people that fear him as none of us can ever imagine.
