Saddam Hussein' Arrested by Israeli Police

JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Saddam Hussein has been arrested in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights. No, not that Saddam Hussein.

Israeli police said on Thursday they arrested a 21-year-old Druze Arab who shares the same name as the ousted and missing Iraqi president after he threw stones at an Israeli tourist bus.

"Police in the Golan...succeeded in doing what no one else has done -- they arrested Saddam Hussein," quipped national police spokesman Gil Kleiman.

Oh, man...
You had me going, for half a second that is!

Who knows? With such brain power, i would say Bush might yet use this news to claim they captured him!!
We all know how Bush likes to spew coments on things before doing his homework... Maybe we will show up in the 11 o�clock news, all smilley and feelin� good, announcing to the world "We captured Saddam!".
That would be a sight to remember!!

This reminds me of that CNN story that was shown just after the invasion started. There was this Kurdish family in a bunker. Apparently Kurds name their children after historically significant things. One of their kids, born during the last Gulf War, was named Dick Cheney. Poor guy. Worse, they said they planned to name their next child George Bush!

I was wondering what in the world he was doing in Israel!
