The AOL headlines say Saddam is showing on a video on Abu Dhabi television that is one week old.I'd say our work is well accomplished. Alive or dead, if it takes Saddam a week to get something on the air, he's defunct, finished, over and gone. All that remains is to determine whether we need to size a coffin or a prison uniform. A week ago, if the French had given him a nice villa on the Riviera provided he called off the fighting and agreed never to cast his grimy shadow over Iraq, I would have said fine. But, well, once you're totally defeated their are no points for conceding. Given that Pres. Bush is probably of a much less open mind on these matters than I, the chance for asylum passed much longer ago. In any case, run the video, Abu Dhabi TV. TV ratings are the only place Saddam makes a difference anymore.
