I'm surprised to see people on this board assuming that the truth is being told about Saddam having guns with him when he was captured.

We are being fed pure propaganda. We actually have no idea how/where/why/when he was caught.

Has anyone seen the guns? Has anyone see him be "talkative"?

No. This administration is very good with "story". That is "Story" in a sense that they know how to create a myth.

The British Airways pilot spotting Air Force One on the way to Irarq is a perfect example. Seems like a harmless little lie, but ... it creates the myth.

We can't believe anything these people tell us. Guns? Maybe, maybe not. Probably not. Talkative? Maybe, maybe not. If they did have him cornered, they could have gassed him with God-Knows-What to the point where he would have been high as a kite when he got out. Tranquilizer darts, who knows?

We don't know anything.

The video they released that we're seeing ad infinitum, of him getting his hair checked for lice, and the flashlight in his mouth -- staged. 100% staged.

These people are masters or propaganda. Remember that!
