Iraqi plot to spring Sammy
U.S. forces in Iraq say they have uncovered a plot to kidnap the country's provisional leaders - in the hopes of trading them for Saddam Hussein.

A U.S. military source said supporters of Saddam planned to abduct at least one and possibly two members of the Iraqi Governing Council. The tip-off came from a Baath military officer and supporter of the ousted dictator. U.S. and Iraqi security services believe members of the governing council have been under surveillance, apparently by Saddam loyalists.
