Well over 1,000 American dead, with the numbers
still climbing, to get rid of Saddam. As many as
100,000 Iraqis killed -- mostly innocent civilians --
all to topple Saddam Hussein.
But Saddam lives.

Saddam may escape noose in deal to halt insurgency
By Adrian Blomfield in Baghdad
(Filed: 11/04/2005)
Saddam Hussein could avoid the gallows under a
secret proposal by insurgent leaders that Iraq's new
administration is "seriously considering", a senior
government source said yesterday.
A reprieve is understood to be among the central
demands of Sunni nationalists and former members
of Saddam's Ba'ath party who have reportedly
begun negotiations with the government amid the
backdrop of a bloody insurgency which claimed 30
lives during the weekend.

Ironically, the lunatic right has been pretending
that we were fighting "Terrorists" in Iraq, and
not Saddam's forces.
