Saddam sightings
US forces have been getting numersous reports of Saddam sightings, after announcing the deaths of his sons.
"The fact that Hussein's sons were discovered to be in a distant relative's house, an obvious target for the U.S. teams organized to hunt down the former Iraqi leader, 'suggests the circle of safety is pretty small,' the intelligence official said.
"The circumstances surrounding Uday's and Qusay's killing, particularly the fact that they had been at the house just a few weeks before they were attacked by U.S. forces, suggests that Hussein and his sons 'have no particular stronghold, no underground bunker; they are living on the run' and much more vulnerable to detection, said Kenneth M. Pollack, an Iraq expert who formerly worked at the CIA and the National Security Council.
