I dunno, he looks ok to me...he's not a young man any more and the beret covered the grey hair on TV. I think he looks rather relaxed.

Is it just me or was the hair just sticking out from under his beret Black in various pictures?????

He doesn't have access to Saddam's make-up man anymore.
He must not have had any real data if they released him so soon??????
If he starts spouting pro-Saddam crap they made another big mistake.

Former Iraqi Information Minister Mohammed Saeed al-Sahhaf - dubbed "Comical Ali" for his deadpan insistence that Iraqi forces were crushing the invading Americans - appeared in brief interviews on Al-Arabiya and Abu Dhabi TV on Thursday.

...

He refused to retract his wartime claims that Iraqi forces were "burning the Americans in their tanks", saying only that his reports came from "authentic sources - many authentic sources".

...

He denied being part of Saddam Hussein's inner circle, saying he was a professional doing his job.

And he said he was at work on a book.

His comments were part of a longer interview due to be broadcast on Friday at 1900 GMT, Dubai-based Al-Arabiya TV said in a statement.

Things that make you say hmmmmm.

I think I've heard this before...

"He refused to retract his wartime claims ... saying only that his reports came from "authentic sources - many authentic sources".

So we believed him and released him. I guess his crediblity was unquestioned.

Now come on people, give the guy a break. I fully believe him when he says he was "only doing his job"......now where have I heard that line before? Oh yea...Nuremburg.

How embarrassing do you think it is for him, being on the run, and then, after he's caught, let go because he just really wasn't as important as he thought he was?
