I think he does. His capture and trial and public humiliation would be very symbolic.

As has been said by US officials, if he's dead we will likely never know. Personally I think he very likely was at least wounded in the first strike. If he's gone into hiding I doubt we will hear from him again for decades, if ever. No nation would openly shelter him now, a not many would do so covertly.

Supposedly, a tape was released, made on the 9th, of him talking to a cheering crowd of people in some village square. It was on Abu-Dhabi TV. But I doubt it, it shows him in his dictator's Army uniform, which he probably would not wear now since it would detract from his ability to blend into a crowd, and he has been betrayed twice before to the Americans...
Something about Libertarianism always bothered me. Then one day, I realized what it was:
Libertarian philosophy can be boiled down to the phrase, "Work Will Make You Free."


In Libertarianism, there is no Government, so the Bosses are free to exploit the Workers.
In Communism, there is no Government, so the Workers are free to exploit the Bosses.
So in Libertarianism, man exploits man, but in Communism, its the other way around!

He may have been vaporized in that restaurant we hit with 4 2000lb bombs. If that's the case, he's a carbon stain on some broken concrete bits now.

Are you referring to the government? Because I was told that by the sandwich I ate last night.

As for Saddam, even if we do find him, we can't just stop there, as it might be a double.

Well, the US military was spamming Iraqi officials before the war to get them to surrender...
