Claim vs. Fact: 2003:

First case of mad cow disease in US
"I suggest this cow is the tip of an invisible iceberg," Mr Stauber, co-author of a book about the threat of the disease, told CNN last night. "My presumption is mad cow disease is spread throughout North America at some level, but because our testing programme is so inadequate we have not identified it." He said the US livestock industry, unlike its European counterparts, continued to practise "animal cannibalism".

The Weapons That Weren't
"So what's the difference?" a slightly flustered George W. Bush asked Diane Sawyer last week when she challenged him on whether Saddam Hussein actually had weapons of mass destruction, or just wanted to get his hands on some. "The possibility that he could acquire weapons," Bush continued, now defending the invasion and occupation of Iraq based on Saddam’s thoughts, desires and wildest dreams rather than his actions, "if he were to acquire weapons, he would be the danger. That's what I'm trying to explain to you."

600 Lawyers Volunteer to Defend Saddam
AMMAN, Jordan (AP) - More than 600 Jordanian lawyers have volunteered to defend former Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein, the president of the Jordanian Bar Association said Tuesday. The Arab Lawyer's Union, which comprises members from across the Arab world, is setting up an international team for Saddam's defense, Hussein Mejali told The Associated Press.
Iran's conflicting views on Saddam
Ever since the capture of former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein by US forces aided by Iraqi Kurdish peshmergas, top Iranian officials on both sides of the leadership have made discordant, if not contradictory, statements about his trial, his sentence and the issue of Iran-Iraq War reparations, estimated by Tehran at billions of US dollars.
New theory for Iraq's missing WMD
British officials are circulating a story that Saddam Hussein may have been hoodwinked into believing that Iraq really did possess weapons of mass destruction. The theory, which is doing the rounds in the upper reaches of Whitehall, is the result of an attempt to find what one official source called a "logical reason" why no chemical and biological weapons had been found in Iraq.
