Tonight(Feb 18) on the History Channel (cable) around 8PM (EST) is an enlightening program and a little bio-history of Saddam entitled "Why Can't They Kill Saddam?"

"When the Gulf War ended in 1991, much of Iraq's defenses were left intact, nearly half of the Republican Guard escaped, and Saddam Hussein remained in power. His own people have tried to kill him; neighboring countries want him out of power; the U.S. has targeted him with laser-guided smart bombs. Yet Saddam Hussein still rules with an iron fist. How is this possible? We'll examine the trickery, the terror, and the political manipulation that sustains one of the world's most hated leaders. TV PG"
