They love their Saddam
Lebanon's LBCI satellite station has broadcast footage of Saddam being cheered by the throngs today in the streets of Baghdad. Was it him? I never saw Saddam giving high-fives before, like this character did, but the Great Man's powerful and ever-present personal secretary, Abed Hammoud, was with him--perhaps undermining my theory that Saddam is in Tikrit, surrounded by tribesmen, ready to fight like Abdel Qader al-Jazairi...

Then again it might have been Hammoud's double.
