So far (6:30 est) all reports are saying that it is possably Saddam, that they {government officials} are waiting for DNA test to prove that it is Saddam. ABC News is the only one at the moment reporting that it is Saddam who was catured.

Since he {Saddam} has so many doubles, I'm going to wait until it gets confirmed before I get get too excited, but I am a bit excited at the prospect that it is him.

CONFIRMED!

Paul Bremer (U.S Admin. in Baghdad) opened the speach with "Ladies and gentlemen, we got him".

Saddam will stand trial. but it's not been determined where yet. At this point, they are saying that most likly the trial will be in Iraq and the Iraqi government is pushing for the trial to be held there.

Saddam is captured!
Lens, give your wallet a break.... Drinks on me!!!

They're still trying to find his right-hand man. I just hope thins means that our troops will be pulled out soon, but I know that's wishful thinking.

When I saw the video and pictures, I thought to myself: "That's why we couldn't find him for so long: he disguised himself as Osama bin Laden."

Some rumors were that the beard was a fake, but the millitary said they shaved his beard off.

By the way he kept patting at the sides of it, I wonder if it really was a fake. It looked like he was trying to keep it from falling off.
