Is Saddam Alive and Well?
From our ANI Correspondent
Schmidt says he is ready to reveal Saddam's whereabouts, but warns that anyone venturing out to the new address should be well guarded.
German forensic pathologist Dieter Buhmann has asserted that, based on his analysis of 450 images, Saddam had at least three doubles to confuse his enemies, lending credence to the skeptic view that the dictator may have escaped the gallows.
Officials at the Iraqi Embassy in Washington D.C. had no immediate comment on claims that Saddam is at large, but a Pentagon spokesman called the assertion "preposterous."
Lt. Gen. Thomas McInerney (Ret.), an Iran Policy Committee member, allowed that "anything's possible in the Middle East, but this one's a reach."
Nimrod Raphaeli, a senior analyst with the Middle East Media Research Institute, scoffed: "The people who took part in the execution were all Shiites. They were fanatics who wanted revenge. They were screaming with joy. They would not let him go, even if he offered them his weight in gold."
Schmidt, who's taking bids, insists that his "evidence" is "undeniable".
