Tariq Aziz in U.S. Custody
 
It was just reported that Tariq Aziz - (the greasy slime ball that used to be the Iraqi deputy Prime Minister)was captured today!

Damnit, I should kick your ass! How can you make a statement like this without providing a link to a story?

No, I'm just kidding. I was just really hoping to have a working link to the story. It is being reported on CNN right now, and on CNN.com they have the "Breaking Alert" at the top, but no official story that I can find yet. I'm still searching, though, and will list it here as soon as I find it.

Hehe... Sweet! Good work on that. I'm still waiting for GoogleNews to pick up the story.

Also, here's a link from ABCNews, courtesy of Fark...

Make him wear a dress to his trial.

Liquor Dealer 04-24-2003 01:41 PM

I think it would only be fitting - after a trial and conviction of course, that he and Baghdad Bob be sentenced to life in a small cell together. They could both then feed each other lies for the rest of their lives.

He himself probably isn't or wasn't a threat - what he knows is a threat. He has been a virtual fountain of disinformation for ever - it would really be almost poetic justice for someone to squeeze the truth out of him.

Downtownat10 04-24-2003 02:09 PM

Yeah, I am eager to see what he has to say, or even if he is willing to talk. May be interesting. I already know what he will say about WMDs, but what about Saddam?

Daval 04-24-2003 02:38 PM

They were saying on the radio that he was probably the most respected and most intelligent member of the Hussein regime.

Macheath 04-24-2003 03:06 PM

Yay, another one of those Muslim maniacs in custody....wait a minute, Tariq is a Christian isn't he?

I wonder what the moral majority has to say about that.

SysteMatiC 04-24-2003 03:28 PM

He may have been the deputy prime minister, but he did not have all that much power. For one he wasnt related to saddam, and he was a christian in a muslim world. He was probably the most pro west person in saddams political party. I think he is ranked like 43 or 44 in the deck of cards.

Another one bites the dust. They will all be captured or declared dead soon. I'd love to know whats up with Saddam....Dead,wounded,escaped. Hope for the first choice.

The_Dude 04-24-2003 05:40 PM

From Link above;
Al-Tikriti reportedly helped train the Fedayeen Saddam militia, which has been accused by U.S. officials of committing war crimes including using civilians as human shields. Pentagon officials said it was too early to determine whether any of the captured officials would be tried for war crimes.


Yeah, He's a real prince.
