Saddam Rants
(New York Post) Niles Lathem - A defiant Saddam Hussein is making outrageous statements to CIA interrogators, claiming his government never surrendered - and that he would win by a landslide in new Iraqi elections. "He is trying to assume an aura of authority," said Ret. Col. Patrick Lang, former Middle East chief of the Defense Intelligence Agency, who has spoken to several former colleagues familiar with the interrogation sessions. Dr. Jerold Post, a George Washington University professor of psychiatry who helped the CIA develop a psychological profile of Saddam before the war, said, "Now, his defenses are back in place and he appears to be very much concerned about burnishing his image and his place in history."
