A year ago yesterday, a bedraggled Saddam Hussein was dragged from a
hole in the ground to a chorus of self-congratulation from US officials
claiming his capture was a turning point in the Iraq war.
"In the history of Iraq, a dark and painful era is over," declared
George Bush the day after the former Iraqi leader was seized. "A
hopeful day has arrived. All Iraqis can come together and build a new
Iraq."
