Journal MsGeek's Journal: They got him...or at least that's what they say anyway.

OK, it's all over the news. Saddam Hussein, or at least someone who looks like Saddam Hussein, has been captured.

Excuse me if I'm a little skeptical. Saddam had several doubles, including people who had plastic surgery to look more like him. This could be one of these hapless "doubles" who was rousted out of a hidey-hole, not the genuine article.

I hope, if this guy's identity is proven as being Saddam Hussein, he goes on trial at The World Court at Den Haag. It's not bloody likely...he's prolly going to get a cell at Gitmo and that's the last we'll hear of him. Anyone know what happened to Manuel Noriega?

Update 3:47pm PST: According to CNN.Com, there were indeed DNA tests done on the man found yesterday...they apparently really do have Saddam Hussein.
