Also a little history on the man. Just like Stalin's inner circle he proved his loyalty by giving up family
In 1963 he joined a violent group led by Saddam that targeted opponents of the Ba'ath Party.

His relative was then killed by Ba'ath Party militias, and al-Sahhaf's future was secured.
I hope he's not dead, yet. I want to see his war crimes trial.
