The Living Dead Speak!

From the Washington Post:

Declaring that “victory is at hand,” Saddam Hussein issued a new statement urging Iraqis to fight on and defend their towns according to a broadcast Wednesday on Iraqi satellite television.

A separate decree, also attributed to Saddam, offered cash rewards to anyone who helps uncover spies assisting the U.S.-led coalition.

Saddam did not appear in person, and there was no way to verify if any of the statements actually came from the Iraqi leader. U.S. officials say they are not sure whether is he alive and well, wounded from an air strike on one of his bunkers, or dead.

In another statement read by the Iraqi Information Minister, Saddam added, “Brains, braaaaains, braaaaaaaaaaaaains.”
