And still on the subject of Saddam – what do you do after your father has hundreds of thousands of people killed, including your own husband, and you have now been granted sanctuary in a country away from your father, who is still on the run from US forces?
Answer: Profess your support for him.
Saddam Hussein’s daughter Raghad said in a TV interview that Baghdad’s swift fall to coalition forces on April 9 was the result of betrayal by unnamed associates of her father.
“With regret, those my father trusted, whom he had put his absolute confidence in and whom he had considered on his side – as I understood from the newspapers – betrayed him,” she said.
“They betrayed their country, before (they betrayed) Saddam Hussein or his family.”
“I miss you, my father. Very much. May God help you with the situation that you’re in,” she said, her voice cracking.
