Start co-operating or weâll hand you over, Saddam told
CIA interrogators have seized on an admission by Saddam Hussein that he fears torture at the hands of his Iraqi enemies, and are threatening him with a quick handover to the new government in a renewed effort to break his silence.They are also trying to exploit a new-found obsession of the former dictator with hygiene and careful food preparation to persuade him to begin giving information after five frustrating months of questioning. Yikes! It took the CIA a total of FIVE MONTHS to figure out Saddam was scared to be turned over to his not so loyal subjects. Tenetâs "lights out" disease must have infected the whole darn organization. This article reads like something out of The Onion. Also Saddam, who had no problems about hiding in a rathole and living on chocolate bars has conned the CIA into thinking he is obsessive compulsive about hygiene and food preparation. On a more serious note, this is very worrisome. When you try to extract information from an enemy with official POW status, and you canât use dog leashes or frilly panties on the face, you get zilch.
