#1 Well CRAP.

I was hoping the old fart was dead.

Of course things he says in this tape are confusing.

So, who is he fighting? Us, the Iraqi Government or the Iranians in Iraq? He seems to really have his panties in a wad over the "Persian invasion"

I got so tired of trying to find his sorry butt, I was glad someone got him. Now, I don't know. Is he some kind of Lescase character that is undead and unkillable?

#3 Audio, in the Age of YouTube? That suggests either
a) the dude is not exactly photogenic or
b) it ain't really him.
