Uday To Surrender?

The news flash of the morning is a report in the Wall Street Journal according to Fox & Friends, saying that Uday Hussein is going to surrender. Short and sweet, I will believe it when I see it.

That thing has to know what awaits it in terms of trial, imprisonment, and – hopefully – an execution. Yes, I am not using a lot of the normal pronouns, or even amateur nouns, as I seek to avoid implying in any way that said creature is a man. Unless it feels that there is a chance of life in prison, and that such is better than life on the run or being dead, I just can’t see it. Even the French would have to keep it in jail, so what is there to hope for? As for me, I can hope that it gets turned over to a group of the women it has harmed, by hurting them or their families, and I hope they make it last a long time.

To me, this report smacks a bit of a psy-op. Something designed to stir things up in the family, to sow suspicion and and dissension into the works. If so, may it work and may it make them all pop up where the Marines and Troops can do their version of whack-a-gopher.

Time will tell.
