Man, that guy is worse than Tupac. Five years from now he'll still be releasing new tapes.

Saddam is dead! Too many clues for me to think otherwise. We will find out he was killed in the initial attack.

Saddam is know probably just hiding out with the likes of ELVIS, Jimmy Hoffa, and other, fallen, "supposedly" dead-but-alive famous people.

They are at a cafe.... Le Cafe de Six Feet Under. :D

Well, according to my news source (The National Enquirer) Elvis is still alive. Do you mean to tell me that this is no longer true? I'm crushed. All these years I have been putting my trust in the Enquirer. Hmmm. :(

The real tip-off was this.
"For the enemy invaders of Iraq, it soon will get truly hot in here," Hussein said in the speech, which was televised worldwide Monday. "No amount of clothing removal will be sufficient to withstand the fiery inferno that awaits them on the battlefield."

if that initial tape was done prior to the attacks, weeks or months before, there is no way he would have been caught dead in those glasses.

Could be BS, but who knows for sure

Saddam quit Iraq 'days ago'
Jerusalem - DEBKAfile's - known for its accurate intelligence reports - has tracked down the top Iraqi leadership's bolt-hole.

It is a large 1 600-room luxury resort with 600m of private sandy beach in the Mediterranean coastal town of Latakiya called Cote d'Azur De Cham Resort, prepaid and chartered in toto by Baghdad.

The group may include Saddam Hussein or his sons, but this is not confirmed.

Top Iraqi officials are reported to have been hiding there since March 23, four days after the US-led coalition invaded Iraq. They are guarded by a Syrian commando unit armed with anti-air missiles while Syrian naval missile boats secure the port.

DEBKA military sources also report: The Iraqi troops sent to reinforce Baghdad's international airport are members of the Iraqi 26th Brigade's special commando unit, whose sole task is to defend the lives of Saddam Hussein and close family.

These commandos take orders from no one but the Iraqi ruler and his sons, who are unlikely to have stripped themselves of this protection if they were still present in the capital.

This outward movement from Baghdad is further indication of drastic changes in the Iraqi government's top level.

? An intelligence analysis indicates the videotapes of Saddam broadcast by Iraqi television in recent weeks were likely shot before the war began on March 19, CNN has learned. A defense official said the analysts cautioned their conclusion was not certain.

This is the whole news story right here, if anyone is looking for it at the CNN site. Doesn't seem like anything new to me, just some intelligence guys making educated guesses. We all did that long ago.

Just propoganda I guess. But CNN made it seem like it was certain-- "BREAKING NEWS"
