Report: Saddam son suffers from brain hemorrhage
Uday, the elder son of Iraqi President Saddam Hussein, struck by brain hemorrhage following conflict with a member of Saddam's Fedayeen on Thursday. He has a brain? The Iranian news agency, IRNA, quoted sources in northern Iraq as saying that tough and indecent orders, issued by Uday, who heads Saddam's Fedayeen, had provoked the conflict as the young man attacked Uday. Too tough and indecent for a Fedayeen, I wonder what that was? Did he tell him to stop beating somebody? Uday's bodyguards then beat the man to injury, the unconfirmed report said. I'll bet they did. According to some observers, the recent report on Uday could be part of the American and the Iraqi opposition propaganda campaign against Saddam Hussein's regime. I think we'd come up with something better than that. FOLLOWUP: Here it is from another source, slightly different story... Saddam Hussein's eldest son Uday suffered a cerebral hemorrhage this morning. According to Iranian news agency IRNA, Uday was involved in a fight with his father's body guard last night. There is no information about Uday's current condition. Saddam Hussein's aides are refusing to confirm this information although they admit that a fight did indeed take place in Saddam's palace.
