Uday Planned to Overthrow Saddam
http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=1514&u=/afp/iraqusudaycoup&printer=1

According to this article, Uday was going to overthrow his father's regime. Then we bombed the shit out of Iraq, and 2 years and 200 Billion dollars later, let Iranians take over. Fantastic planning on our part.

1. Well! This must be why he isn't going to enter --
Colorado's gubernatorial race--

Oh wait -- you've got 'Uday' and not 'Udall.'

Nevermind.

2. Uday was so scary that Saddam had him shot and Uday ended up
in a wheelchair. If Saddam was afriad of Uday....

Just like Nixon whispering to Kissenger in the 1970s: "that Rumsfield guy gives me the creeps.... can we fire him?"



Yuk. Hussein was a monster. He was their monster and they had to kill him when he got out of control and had killed over a million. He called attention to himself. He destabilized the world so they would have to rely on him. The monster used them. Kind of like Chalibi. You think they would learn to stop playing with sociopaths.
