Saddam conspiracy process a best seller
A book claiming that executed former dictator Saddam Hussein is actually alive and well has become a best seller and is reported to have sold more copies than any other title at the Middle East’s foremost literary event, the Cairo International Book Fair, which ended on Sunday. ‘Saddam was not executed’ is the title of the work published just two weeks ago by Egyptian journalist and writer Anis Al-Daghidi. The book, which satellite channel Al-Arabiya claimed had outsold the novels of the late Egyptian Nobel laureate Naguib Mahfouz at the recent book fair, argues that the former Iraqi dictator is not only not dead, but that he had never even been captured and that a double was hung in his place on 30 December. The theories of al-Daghidi are not limited to Saddam Hussein alone. In the 365-page work, even Uday and Qusay, Saddam’s two notorious sons, are still alive and well - their deaths in a US raid in Mosul in July 2003, for Al Daghidi, were an American invention.

I hope this is true. We should not have killed anyone, especially Saddam or his sons. they had nothing to do with 9-11, this was Bush’s own personal vendetta and I say, Bush sucks. I hope this is true. I pray this is true, I hope they are all still alive. It should have never happened. Never.
