Rumsfeld mixes up Saddam and Osama
According to Norwegian newspaper Bergens Tidene Rumsfeld mixed up the names of Saddam Hussein and Osama bin Laden twice in a speech on Friday. Translating the translations (I've been unable to find this in American newspapers) he said:

"The leader of the North Alliance, Massoud, was dead, killed by orders from Saddam Hussein....eh, from Osama bin Laden, the accomplice of Taliban."

And later, in the same speech:

"Saddam Hussein - if he is still alive - is using a lot of his time to avoid capture."

The article states that "Saddam Hussein or Osama bin Laden? It's not so easy to keep the two crooks apart. Especially not if your name is Donald Rumsfeld and you're the US Secretary of Defense...."

As the Norwegian newspaper rightly points out, the US have already captured Saddam Hussein. They also, very kindly, show pictures of the two men, explaining who's who. http://bt.no/utenriks/article288988#

Perhaps we should send this link to Rumsfeld - even if he doesn't understand Norwegian, he can look at the pictures and see the names written in the captions.

3. Deceit - it's not just for the plebes anymore. Enter self-deceit.
Face it - each of us were caught in a slip of the tongue at least once - the brainwashing has been THAT inexcapable.

6. Is he doing this on purpose to further blur the difference?
I wouldn't be surprised if Saddam shows up in court wearing a robe a la OBL.

7. Sodasma Ben Hussladen
Clearly, these people need to just officially merge Usama and Saddam into one person. It will make their little scheme a whole lot easier to carry off from a logistical standpoint. Maybe that will be the October Suprise: Usama and Saddam are actually the same person, whose real name is Sodasma Ben Hussladen! So we DO have Usama in custody. The whore media will eat that up with a spoon and spit the seeds in our faces.
