Current Events » in reply to Ex-Marine Says Public Version of Saddam Capture Fiction

Another load of crap.

And as usual, swallowed instantly by some people like a trout gulps a hook.

Saddam himself has described his own capture, It matches the version we all know. One would think that if he had actually made a heroic "last stand," he would have mentioned it.

Nobody looking into this has found a "Nadim Abou Rabeh" in any Marine records. There were no Marine casualties in the entire month of December, 2003, much less the fictional one described in the article. In fact, there weren't any Marines in that area of Iraq at all at that time.

Did you even bother to look into this at all? Do you really buy a third party interview from a Saudi newspaper before you believe the military and the men who made this capture? Is your hostility toward our military that crazed?
