What the heck was growing on Saddam's face?!
When they pulled a filth-ridden, humiliated Saddam out of the rat-hole, I was happy that the genocidal bastard was finally caught, regardless of whether it was right to go after him on the pretense of weapons of mass destruction that were never found. He was a tyrant that now has to face justice.
Now I want to talk about the man's hair. Yes, yes, I know it's probably the last thing anyone cares about, but there is something very strange about how he looked when they showed the video of him getting his head checked for lice and having his mouth examined. His facial hair was greying, but his scalp hair was completely black! I find this weird because the man has been living in a crap-hole, under constant threat of being captured or killed, so when did he have time to color his hair? Either he has been busy hiding his ass (quite likely), or he has been leading some of the insurgents (quite unlikely) during this time. In either case, coloring one's hair seems to be low on the list of priorities, especially when a two-thousand pound bomb can land on your head at any moment. So either the man is so vain that he colors his hair in the face of imminent death, or his scalp hair is naturally black.
So we have a mystery, in my opinion more profound than the mystery of where all the weapons of mass destruction are hidden. There were no weapons of mass destruction. He used these weapons that were provided to him by the US (see this link showing Rumsfeld shaking the man's hand) to kill Iranians (the desired result of the US) and Kurds (not so desired). Any remaining WMD were destroyed. No, I won't lose any sleep over weapons of mass destruction. The real mystery, the one that will keep me up at night is this question about his hair. Did he color it? Or is it naturally black? Both seem highly improbable, but we can't deny that his hair was black. I can't take it!
I would be interested if they catch one of the many doppelgangers that he supposedly had, if their hair is the same as his...maybe this captured man is one of the doppelgangers....hmmmmm.....
In any case, for those you that think I am being serious about the doppelganger, maybe you've been coloring your hair too much and the fumes have killed too many brain cells...I'm done ranting for now.
