Iraqis Fear Hussein is Plotting to Return
(Washington Post) Graffiti extolling former president Saddam Hussein went up a few nights ago throughout Baghdad's Adhamiyah neighborhood. The wall of a girls' school promised that "Saddam the hero will be back." The side of a shop proclaimed that "Saddam is still our leader." Although residents eagerly painted over slogans praising Hussein in the days after his government fell, they said no one dared to remove the latest messages. Many Iraqis have become increasingly spooked that the former dictator and his loyalists are plotting a return to power.
