Uh-oh... Now, the shit is gonna hit the fan...
well, probably not, given bushco's incredible ability to lie and completely evade any vestige of truth... but, still, this is one hell of an indictment...
oh, my, my, my... while this doesn't surprise ME in the least, if it is indeed true, which, on its face, to me, at least, seems quite likely, i will be very interested to see if this story has legs... Submit To Propeller

A former political adviser to Saddam Hussein's son said today that Saddam was willing to yield to all American demands before the U.S. invasion of Iraq -- but that the Bush administration refused his offers.
The disclosure was made by Hossam Shaltout, a Canadian aerospace engineer, former American pilot, and founder of the peace organization Rights and Freedom International (http://www.rightsandfreedom.com), who said that war could have been averted, but Bush aides blocked his efforts to announce Saddam's decision.
"Saddam was willing to yield to all American demands, announced and unannounced, to reach peaceful resolution," said Shaltout, "but the Bush administration, including Elizabeth Cheney, undersecretary of State, David Welch, the U.S. ambassador in Egypt, and Gene Cretz, his political attache, did not respond to his offers."
