- Raymond Burr: Ladies and gentlemen of the jury:

like to present the following articles in evidence as exhibits A through
Z.
-
- Now, Mr. Hussein, do you recognize the man who brought
you the package of money and biological weapons in 1983 ? Is he present

- The Capture of Saddam: The Questions the Mainstream Media
Aren't (as Usual) Asking
-
- Cheryl Seal writes: "When the 'Saddam Capture' story
broke, a survey of several mainstream news outlets makes it clear: The
corporate media in the US and UK, were conveniently supplied with a package
similar to a press kit that included video footage, still shots, press
releases worded in such a way they could be cut and pasted in the news
section or read on air.... Any questions were undoubtedly referred to a
'senior White House Official' who had been briefed with all the correct
answers -just as when you are referred to the 'public relations department'
when you have a product complaint, you are shortstopped by someone with
all the answers, but no solutions. Yep, the White House supplied the media
with everything they wanted them to know and say. No need at all for the
lazy corporate editor or journalist to ask any questions. Just open wide
and let 'em spoon it in!"

- Saddam Says Bush 'Dreamed Up' WMD Scare as a 'Reason
to Go to War'
-
- TIME reports, "Saddam was also asked whether Iraq
possessed weapons of mass destruction. 'No, of course not,' he replied,
according to the official, 'the U.S. dreamed them up itself to have a reason
to go to war with us.' The interrogator continued along this line, said
the official, asking: 'if you had no weapons of mass destruction then why
not let the U.N. inspectors into your facilities?' Saddam's reply: 'We
didn't want them to go into the presidential areas and intrude on our privacy.'"
Memo to TIME: are you completely unaware that after the UN passed Resolution
1441 on 11-7-02, Saddam DID let UN inspectors into all of the Presidential
palaces? Stop scrubbing history!

- __DEBKA Thinks Saddam Wasn't Hiding - But Had Already
Been Captured
-
- DEBKAfile speculates on intelligence issues from a pro-Israeli
viewpoint. Noting the "incredibly bedraggled, tired and crushed condition
of this once savage, dapper and pampered ruler," DEBKAfile concludes:
"Saddam Hussein was not in hiding; he was a prisoner. After his last
audiotaped message was delivered and aired on Sunday November 16, on the
occasion of Ramadan, Saddam was seized, possibly with the connivance of
his own men, and held in that hole in Adwar for three weeks or more, which
would have accounted for his appearance and condition. Meanwhile, his captors
bargained for the $25m prize the Americans promised for information leading
to his capture alive or dead. The negotiations were mediated by Jalal Talabani's
Kurdish PUK militia." Interesting theory. Also noteworthy is the fact
Saddam's capture followed right on the heels of James Baker's appointment
for Iraq "debt restructuring," when Bush badly needs the support
of Europe. Plus that annoying Halliburton scandal...

- __DNA Testing Takes 3-5 Days - Not 7 Hours
-
- "You've probably seen it on one of those television
crime shows: Skeletal remains are found, DNA tests are performed and presto!
The case is solved, conveniently in a one-hour time slot during prime time.
Guess what? In real life, it doesn't quite work that way. DNA testing takes
time, a great deal of care and includes a lot more variables than seen
on television... Once DNA is extracted, it normally takes three to five
days to test it, Fenger said. Then, scientists have to compare the DNA
to a known sample from the person, or to the DNA of the person's parents."
So how did Karl Rove complete the DNA testing of Saddam in 7 hours? And
what tissue samples did they compare the DNA to? Did Saddam just leave
toenail clippings behind for them at the palace?

- __Did Saddam Offer Bush a Deal in September?
-
- Here's a report from the Daily Mirror from 9-21-03 that
now seems extremely interesting in light of last weekend's events: "Saddam
Hussein has been in secret negotiations with US forces in Iraq for the
past nine days, we can reveal. The Iraqi dictator is demanding safe passage
to the former Soviet republic of Belarus. In exchange, he has vowed to
provide information on weapons of mass destruction and disclose bank accounts
where he siphoned off tens of millions of dollars in plundered cash. President
Bush is being kept abreast of the extraordinary talks by his National Security
advisor Condoleezza Rice. She is co-ordinating negotiations in Baghdad
which are led by Lt. Gen. Ricardo Sanchez, the commander of American forces
in Iraq." What was that about?

Machine Can Block the Truth
-
- "Ellen Mariani, wife of Louis Neil Mariani, who
died when United Air Lines flight 175 was flown into the South Tower of
the World Trade Center on 911 announced today, in the wake of the capture
of Saddam Hussein, she will seek an extraordinary writ by the Honorable
Court to immediately depose Saddam Hussein, a critical witness to support
the merits of her RICO Act cause of action against Defendant George W.
Bush, et. al." Mrs. Mariani wants to ask Saddam for the truth about
Bush I and Reagan's collusion with Saddam in the past and the possible
bearing this has on the events of 9/11 - BEFORE Bush "justice"
blocks the truth through every means at its disposal.

- __Greg Palast: 'Jessica Lynch Captures Saddam; Ex-Dictator
Demands Back Pay from Baker'
-
- "Saddam Hussein was taken into custody yesterday
at approximately 8:30pm Baghdad time. Various television executives, White
House spin doctors and propaganda experts at the Pentagon are at this time
wrestling with the question of whether to claim PFC Jessica Lynch seized
the ex-potentate or that Saddam surrendered after close hand-to-hand combat
with current Iraqi strongman Paul Bremer III. Ex-President Hussein himself
told US military interrogators that he had surfaced after hearing of the
appointment of his long-time associate James Baker III to settle Iraq's
debts. 'Hey, my homeboy Jim owes me big time,' Mr. Hussein stated. He asserted
that Baker and the prior Bush regime, 'owe me my back pay. After all I
did for these guys you'd think they'd have the decency to pay up.' The
Iraqi dictator then went on to list the 'hits' he conducted on behalf of
the Baker-Bush administrations, ending with the invasion of Kuwait in 1990,
authorized by the former US secretary of state Baker."

- __Saddam's Capture Offers Chance to End the US Occupation
-
- "Ivo Daalder of the Brookings Institution and James
Lindsay of the Council on Foreign Relations write in Newsday, yesterday's
extraordinary events 'represent an opportunity to get Iraq right by ending
the American occupation quickly and bringing the international community
in to help build a stable, secure, and representative Iraq.'... Reuters
reports, 'joy at the capture of Saddam Hussein has given way to resentment
towards Washington as Iraqis confront afresh the bloodshed, shortages and
soaring prices of life under U.S. occupation.' While 'many were ecstatic
to see Saddam in the dock and hoped he would answer for his deeds,' some
'said they would not rush to thank America - in their eyes the source of
their problems since a U.S.-led coalition toppled Saddam in April.' AFP
reports Arabs throughout the world 'shared little of the world's joy over
Saddam Hussein's capture, expressing hope only that US troops may soon
end their occupation of Iraq.'"

- __Will BushFeld Protect Saddam, Or Let Him Be Assassinated?
-
- Robert Dreyfuss writes, "Saddam's capture will present
a significant political problem for Bush & Co. All by himself, Saddam
can unravel the supposed mystery of Iraq's missing weapons of mass destruction.
Call him a liar, but on this subject he can tell the truth. Iraq's WMD
were virtually extinguished in 1991, and lingering remnants dealt with
by UN inspectors in the early '90s. Already, according to Time, Saddam
in captivity ridiculed the WMD issue... Keeping him alive now is the job
of the U.S. military, amid a swirl of political forces that would like
him dead. Though he has apparently been spirited away to Qatar, he will
have to be returned to Iraq for the inquest and trial. And Iraq, at the
very least, is a nation of a thousand Jack Rubys." Will BushFeld let
an Iraqi Jack Ruby "slip through" to keep Saddam from exposing
Bush's WMD lies?
