Well, you didn't just lose mine.
Kurdish Media News Saddam’s capture was achieved with the assistance of the Kurds, a fact that has not been widely publicised. One assumes that the Americans wanted to use the capture to bolster US public opinion and Bush’s re-election campaign. Kurds could not claim credit for Saddam’s capture as they fear the assault by and the isolation from the Arab and Islamic world.
From the right-wing NewsMax "Deposed Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein has been captured in his hometown of Tikrit in a joint operation of U.S. and Kurdish forces."
Note "joint".
WAR PROPAGANDA AND THE CAPTURE OF SADDAM HUSSEIN
Armed with the information, Talabani made a beeline for US administration offices in Baghdad, where deputy defence secretary Paul Wolfowitz was based for a week’s stay in Iraq at the time.
The Kurdish leader and US military chiefs conferred and decided that PUK intelligence would go ahead and secretly surround the Zeidan villa and install sensors and eavesdropping devices. The Kurdish agents were instructed to prepare the site for the US special forces operation to storm the building on July 22.
