[Chapomatic] Argumentation and Failure: He had good links with the toppled Saddam Hussein who oppressed these Shiites. He sumpathized with the agenda of the region’s Arab Sunnis, which was in conflict with that of the Arab Shiites.
[Acepilots.com] Friends of Saddam: Fox News reporters reviewed documentary evidence that Stephanides had acted on the Lloyd's Register Oil-for-Food contract only after receiving higher-level UN authorization for his actions.

[Saddamhussein.blogspot.com] Saddam's Cyber Palace: By now the whole stinkin' world is aware of the so-called "Downing Street Memo."
