Inside Saddam's Cell

-snip-

One American, who has been inside the cell, told 60 Minutes the walls are covered in white tiles. On one wall, there is a poster that shows the faces of the 38 former Iraqi officials who have been killed or captured. They include the pictures of Saddam's two dead sons, Uday Hussein and Qusai Hussein. On the opposite wall of Saddam's cell hangs a portrait. Saddam Hussein now spends his day looking at a picture of President Bush.

3. This is an assault on our nat'l security
in the same way that "bring 'em on" was an invitation to disaster.

The Arab press will pick this up and the continuing humiliation of defeat will insult Iraqis who are nationalistic, and Arabs already resentful of the West.

We just can't break the habit of giving them reasons to hate us.

4. That's amazingly base. Seriously. It's like a asylum patient...
...thought it up.

No offence to incarcerated inmates either.

I can't believe how low we've dropped on the civilization scale.
