Saddam Shaken as He Watches Election of Iraqi President
Saddam Hussein watched the election of Iraq’s new president on video and was shaken by what he saw, the country’s human-rights minister said.
"He was clearly upset. He realised that it was over, that a democratic process had taken place and that there was a new, elected president," Bakhtiar Amin said.
"It was not just the fact that there was a new president, but that the president was a Kurd. What’s more, it all happened without bloodshed," he said... [Reuters]
