Title: Saddam is dead...
Post by: (e) on April 07, 2003, 05:42:15 PM
I just heard this on the news. Apparently him and his sons were killed from a bomb attack..

I dont have time to verify - gotta cash my birthday check..

What do you all think about this? I for one, and skeptical, but for that little bit of hope in me- I am glad he died.

This war seems to be coming to an end with Saddam\'s reigne. Lets hope it almost is.

Looks like this may be for real.

Can\'t wait to see the information minister to talk tomorrow.

The bigger questino is what Unicron will say.

Defense minister: case 1:"they dropped 4 bunker busters on Saddam\'s house but none hit. Infact, the 4 bombs are so innaccurate, they bombed thier own base and killed all their soldiers. So that means we won"

case 2: "Saddam is invincible and was seen walking from the rubble"

case 3: "we cloned Saddam" :)

A better statement would be...

"By the grace of God, the American infidels, with all their technology, could not stand up to God. Their bombs dropped but went straight back up and destroyed their own plane (or their missiles launched turned around)."

Wow, I never thought I\'d ever hear myself seriously say the words, "I hope he\'s dead" and mean it.

Unicorn will say;

Saddam with his super Iraqi powers, dodged the bullets, then proceded to eat 3 babies! YES 3 BABIES!

:laughing: Too much deathmetal for tonight :laughing: :laughing:

Apparently only one source can confirm this, so this may be doubtful. Before they said that we killed Osama, but he is alive and bitchin.

I love how people immedietly attack someone who doesnt support the status quo. Really, if it wasnt for differing opinions there wouldnt be an america.
Deal with it.
Stop being such closeminded bastards.

Sure hope he\'s dead. The war would stop sooner and the stock will recover. :D

But just wait until 100% confirmation...

I never once heard them ever say we got Osama.

I heard it several times. I also blame that on the over zealous reporters hoping to move up in rank and have their network get the story out first.

Just like today is the third time that saddam is supposed to be dead in this war.

Reporters saying crap is different. Like the chemicals found.  Our government hasn\'t said it\'s chemical weapons, yet the media has run with it.

I don\'t remember them saying we got Osama.  Close to, may have, on the trail, etc..  I certianly heard those statements.

This saddam thing though they have said there is a pretty good chance we got him.

But there are two factors.

It could have been miss information, or he could have gotten out in time.

But they have said that they did not see anyone leave before the strikes so I guess we can only hope.

That guy who tells people in Iraq whats going on in the war makes me laugh. When we took over the airport he said that the Republican Guard crushed our forces while on CNN they were showing pics of us just walking through the place.
