BREAKING NEWS ! Saddam Has Been Captured : CONFIRMED

(For publishing at Free Choice Media. Comments, additions anyone? Still short.)
Mission Incomplete: WMD Anyone?
So our intelligence proved they can actually find someone. During a raid just outside Saddam Hussein’s hometown of Tikrit, they found the old stinker and former Iraqi leader dug in a camouflaged hole. The king of spades has been found, spurring President Bush to state, “A dark and painful era is over. A hopeful day has arrived.”
That seems to imply that the fighting is over now. Hell no. I don’t think Saddam was the mastermind behind the continuing attacks against United States (the most recent attack reported yesterday, I am now having trouble finding at CNN’s webpage). Unless of course that “rat in a hole” as one US official described it was capable of plotting all these attacks, they’re not going to stop. The non-stop coverage of the capture of Saddam Hussein is only a morale victory for troops, American citizens and some Iraqi people. The implications of the capture will be minimal in Iraq. He has been out of power for seven months yet soldiers continue to die every day. His “era” or reign was over the moment he was out of power and his terror then moved into the hands of organized loyalists.
An article in the Chicago Tribune asks, “Will he lead to bin Laden?” The question that should be asked now is whether he will lead to weapons of mass destruction. After all, WMD are the reason we justified invading Iraq, on the claims that we were certain Hussein had weapons of mass destruction. The weapons that after about seven months of occupation, we still have not found.
It would be would be ironic if Hussein will be charged for crimes against humanity but not any WMD related charges. If this is the case, this logic is against the United States Constitution anyway. We invaded a country on the assumption (yes, that’s all it was) that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction, not for the reason that Saddam was threatening his own people. That was just added on for a little bit of frosting. If the American people don’t buy the mass destruction thing, they do know he is a bad man who must be stopped. But assumptions of possession of WMD would be nothing in US law. You can’t be convicted on assumptions. You need evidence. I guess we figure that even though we haven’t found WMD, we’ll just bust him in something else even though it may not be the reason we invaded Iraq.
It’s a key point now to ask the question to the former leader, “Where are the weapons?” And if he says that Iraq had none, will we be told? Most likely not because as far as we know now, he could, god-forbid, be speaking truth.

Saddam's an idiot... should've just killed himself when he had the chance, then the US wouldnt win.. but then again, maybe he has a master plan.. like he has a bomb implanted in his small intestine, and when/if they bring him to the US, he presses a part of his body where the detonator's lodged and he explodes!
Whoopy doo.............. Saddam is caught.......... They found the evil dictator!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What a load of bull****. He may be caught, it might be true, but this has little to no relevance. There are still no WMD. Now that Saddam is caught will the US war machine be creating excuses to go on incursions into other countries with leaders who are not really nice guys?
This sends a message to Tony Blair and John Howard - do not make yourself an ally of the United States. 15 years afterwards they will come for you and hunt you down.
I can see a similar thing with Musharaf in Pakistan. His shady politics, I mean military coup to get into power may see him be attacked in 15 years time.
How can Musharaf be an ally for freedom and peace, and Saddam an enemy.
It stinks, it always has, it always will.
LONG LIVE SADDAM!

er, I think you are confusing him with Bush...
what i meant was that saddam urges his people to be martyrs and to go out there and blow themselves up while he just kicks it in his little "spider hole", lmao. he should've just shot himself or at least fought back and died like a man.
Now I am missing out on the cricket because of some news special on Saddam's capture. Nice and biased.
"Cowering in a hole......"
"Freedom and hope......"
"Death, Terrorise.........."
"Little talk of the illusive WMD, Saddam is enough..."
EDIT: Now they showed interviews from CNN of Americans ont he streets in America.
"Hiding in a hole with a million dollars... show what a coward he really was."
"It is good, we caught another one... I support George W"
Then this stupid newsbreak showed that same old picture of Saddam handling the swords.
Then Bush comes up, saying some jargon along the lines of, how it symbolises that the US will stop the men in the middle east who will rather kill than accept liberty.
I figure I can escape this trash and watch the cricket, but it just pulls you back in.
