Saddam waiting for US to re-install him as President of Iraq. I am still waiting for that pony I asked Santa for in 1969.

Saddam's chief lawyer, Khalil al-Dulaimi, told the newspaper in an interview conducted last week in Amman, Jordan, Saddam "knows the sentence has been issued from Washington, and if there is an even greater punishment than the death sentence, he'll get it."

But Saddam clings to hope, believing the way out is to become the United States' "last resort; they'll knock on his door," the lawyer said. "The United States will use this sentence to pressure Saddam to save it from its mess."

Saddam even believes the United States might reinstall him as president of Iraq, al-Dulaimi told the Times.

Deteriorating relations with Iran figure into Saddam's reasoning, the lawyer added. "The Iranian influence is a threat to American interests. ... The only person standing in the face of Iran, which is the enemy of America, is Saddam Hussein."

Wow! If anybody always sees the silver lining in a situation it has to be Saddam. This guy has more in common with George Bush then I first thought. Both of these guys ignore all negative evidence to continue with their optimistic points of view. They are both idiots!

However it is interesting that Saddam recognizes that the United States has no real strategy for dealing with Iraq or Iran. He may be nuts but he is not stupid.
