This story from the Washington Post contributes further to the impression that the administration believes Saddam Hussein survived this spring’s U.S. invasion. Anonymous administration sources confirmed that a U.S. strike last week on a fleeing Iraqi three-vehicle convoy near the Syrian border led to DNA testing of the remains to see if Hussein was among them. Pentagon sources were somewhat cagey but acknowledged that there had been good intelligence that “one or more high-value targets” might be found in the convoy. Sovereignty be damned: U.S. forces reportedly followed the convoy into Syria before destroying it there.
