Hi Mq:

>>The jumpy Americans were perhaps concerned that he might fly the simulator into the White House on 4 July.<<

Something that I think has not sunk in yet for the ROW is how the WTC attack really has changed everything. With the exception of Japanese balloon bombs in WWII, there have been no attacks on (mainland) US soil since the war of 1812. The citizenry appear to be supporting the government in a series of measures that are quite draconian, imo.

Saffi the stepson is not genetically related to Saddam, but I am sure the FBI are happy to have an opportunity to have a chat with him. As far as Saffi not being deported yet goes, there is a little matter of due process, which in his case will probably amount to detention as a guest of Uncle Sam until the FBI is done with him.

>>With the USA preparing to invade Iraq and defeat Saddam Hussein, this is quite interesting.<<

Interesting, indeed. For those around the world with misgivings about this upcoming action, let us remember that Iraq is a country whose law-enforcement personnel routinely torture children to death in front of their parents and where parents are not allowed to bury their dead (of natural causes) infants but must watch as their small bodies are tossed into Iraqi government freezers only to be removed and paraded around the streets of Baghdad at Saddam's pleasure.
