<font color='white'> I dont know if this is true or not, but I heard that Saddam is instrucing all of his top guys to watch Enemy at the Gates and Black Hawk Down..

Ehm, I cant understand Black Hawk Down I guess. But Enemy At The Gates? Whats that have to do with anything? Is it because he is expecting Bagdad to become Stalingrad esque? </font>

Wow that's interesting.

Both are actually good movies though Black Hawk Down needed more background info unless you already read the book. Good book by the way.

Not sure if I cared for the "sex in the bunker scene" though in Enemy at the Gates :)

But sure looks like Saddam wants every Iraqi to be a Vasili Zaitsev (sp?)sniper killing as many of the evil, fascist American invaders.

<font color=orange>Enemy At the Gates could be because of the street fighting. Maybe he wants to give them ideas!</font>

Yeah, well... he's forgetting one tiny detail.... those were different times, with different types of weapons. Stalingrad was a maze, the perfect hideout for a sniper. But today they can spot an enemy inside whatever building he's hiding, simply because of his body temperature. Watching these movies, won't do them much good. I do hope they enjoy em though. :D

<font color="#ffccff">I recently heard/read that Saddam had once commented that Joseph Stalin was one of his ....ack forgot the word..not quite Idol ..but someone he admired....so I would imagine he would want the republican guard to see Enemy at the Gate. </font>

Well at least it's not as bad as hearing the Vice President of South Vietnam in the 1960's saying that he admired Hitler.

That certainly rattled a few people in the media and US administration no doubt. Like what is the US doing in propping up this guy :)

Say I just realized that Saddam has a bushy mustache just like Uncle Joe!

Coincidence? :)
