Jim DeFede in the Miami Herald - Hussein in Cuba? Let it be true:
Saddam Hussein is alive and living in Cuba.
Don't just take my word for it. I got this information straight from the April 21 issue of the Egyptian newspaper Soat el Umma, which in Arabic means Voice of the Nation.
...
If Hussein really was in Cuba, it would be just like the old TV show The Odd Couple. But instead of Felix and Oscar, we'd have Saddam and Fidel.
CUE ANNOUNCER:
On April 6, Saddam Hussein was asked to remove himself from his place of residence. [Sound effect of cruise missile exploding.] That request came from the United States.
Deep down, he knew she was right. But he also knew that someday he would return to Iraq.
With nowhere else to go, he appeared at the home of his longtime friend Fidel Castro. Sometime earlier, the United States had tried to throw him out, requesting that he never return.
Can two dictatorial men share an apartment without driving each other crazy?
CUE MUSIC.
All I can say is: ``Please, God, let it be true and I'll never ask for anything again.''
