I see London, I see France ...
The U.S. military has condemned a British newspaper for publishing photographs of Saddam Hussein -- one shows the ex-Iraqi leader in his underwear. The Sun said it obtained the photos from 'U.S. military sources,' who handed them over 'in the hope of dealing a body blow to the resistance in Iraq,' the Guardian reported. The Sun also showed a photo Friday of Saddam in his cell and another of him washing his clothes under the headline, 'Tyrant? He's washed up.' 'Saddam is not superman or God. He is now just an aging and humble old man,' the Sun reported its source as saying. 'It's important that the people of Iraq see him like that to destroy the myth.'While I don't condone this, I can't help laughing about it a little.

Dave, I saw the photo on IMUS this morning and rolled in the floor laughing. Reminded me of the question some nut posed to Bill Clinton about whether he preferred boxers or briefs. No doubt about Saddam on this question.
msmbc.com was doing a poll today about whether or not the photos violated Saddam's rights. I had to vote yes, the photo did violate his rights. But it is still one funny picture and a candadate for candid camera.
