“I was among the 20-man unit, including eight of Arab descent, who searched for Saddam for three days in the area of Dour near Tikrit, and we found him in a modest home in a small village and not in a hole as announced,” Abou Rabeh said.

“Later on, a military production team fabricated the film of Saddam’s capture in a hole, which was in fact a deserted well,” Abou Rabeh said.

According to this guy, though, the Marine’s story doesn’t pan out. He mentioned a Marine of Sudanese descent dying, but there’s no record of any deaths like that. He also mentions that it was the 4th ID that captured Hussein, so why are we talking about a Marine?

The consensus, anyway, is that the Marine is telling stories and it only got picked up because Reverend Moon runs UPI.
