Uh huh. Keep claiming that. Like the same people who said we never landed on the moon.
Yeah. Again you fail with the reading comprehension. I said that they could, never that they did.

Oerdin, Fez, I never said I believed the guy.
Just admit it, Fez, you didn't actually read the article. I'll go away then.
I did read the article. I was amused.
For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night. This is the violence of institutions -- indifference, inaction, and decay. This is the violence that afflicts the poor, that poisons relations between men because their skin has different colors. - Bobby Kennedy (Mindless Menance of Violence)
Funny stuff, since I spent about 13 months in Tikrit this last year and saw the area where he was captured.
You can't tell me that the Saddamizer wouldn't have debunked the whole story himself when he had a chance either. He would have loved to talk about his stand against the US.
There were Marines in and out of Speicher and Summerall this past year, so they COULD have helped on any operation Dec. 03, but my understanding was that it was 4th ID with elements of 10th Group that brought him in.

He's not allowed to read newspapers.

He is a bit of dummy. He could have turned Iraq into a nice little country if he wasn't so big on the military nonsense. Running around in his stupid little uniform.
No he to be an idiot, thumbing his nose at the US and the world, invading, getting into trouble.
The USA must have loved him, providing the US with all kinds of opportunities within the middle east.
A translation of the original Saudi story is here. Elements of it are easily checkable, and they don't check out. This site lists all U.S. combat fatalities in Iraq. On Dec. 12, 2003, two men were killed in action: Jarrod Black and Jeffrey Braun. Both were soldiers, not Marines; and neither one has a Sudanese-sounding (i.e., Arabic) surname. Nor were any Marines or any servicemen with Arab-sounding names killed on Dec. 10 or 11.
As CNN noted at the time, Saddam was captured by the Fourth Infantry Division, and it's not clear why Marines would be along on an Army operation. There is little doubt that both al-Medina and UPI have fallen for a hoax.
