Baghdad crowd scorns Saddam's birthday with donkey fete

BAGHDAD (AFP) - Joyous crowds in Baghdad showed their scorn for Saddam Hussein (news - web sites), mocking his birthday by dressing up a donkey as the fallen strongman and giving him a cake made of excrement.

"Today marks the commemoration of oppression and we will celebrate this anniversary every year," said Jaafar Saadun, the donkey's owner.

"We are no longer afraid for the first time in decades," said Saadun, speaking in the impoverished Sadr neighborhood formerly known as Saddam City, home to about two million Shiite Muslims.

A young man dressed as an Iraqi army general ceremonially took position near the donkey, which had been adorned with Saddam's pictures on both flanks and sported a hat and honorific military medals.

"He is protecting our president," joked a man in the crowd.

Saddam turned 66 on Monday although his whereabouts, if he is even still alive, are unknown.

Every symbol of his hated regime was methodically ridiculed, starting with the mock general riding the donkey and pretending to fire an old wooden rifle similar to that carried by Saddam in many official pictures.

A teenage boy brought a six-layer cake made of animal feces with Saddam's picture stuffed in between each layer, as beaming youths danced and sang "happy birthday Saddam" at the top of their lungs in both English and Arabic.

The pictures, portraying Saddam in military attire, had been torn out of children's schoolbooks. Other pictures that featured his two equally disliked sons, Uday and Qussay, were also covered in muck.

"For the first time in my life, I am not forced to attend Saddam's birthday ceremonies. He was a dictator, he was nothing but a donkey ruling over Iraq (news - web sites)," said Ali, 24.

Study: Big quake likely to rock Bay area by 2033

BERKELEY, California (AP) -- A federal study slightly reduced the chance that the San Francisco Bay area will be hit by a major earthquake in the next 30 years, but still put the probability at better than 50 percent.

The study, commissioned by the U.S. Geological Survey, set the probability of such a quake at 62 percent. The last time the survey was conducted, in 1999, the estimate was 70 percent. A major quake has a magnitude of 6.7 or greater.

David Schwartz, co-author of the study, which was released Tuesday, noted that area residents face a greater chance of experiencing a significant quake than being affected by such well-publicized threats as anthrax.

"The things we face every day -- when we turn on the TV, or read the newspaper -- in many ways will never touch us," Schwartz, head of the USGS San Francisco Bay Area Earthquake Hazards project. "But living in this region, earthquakes will affect us. Earthquakes are going to happen."

Schwartz presented the research during a public lecture at the University of California, Berkeley.

The Bay Area's last major earthquake, with a magnitude of 6.9, occurred in 1989. Centered 50 miles south of San Francisco, the quake killed 40 people and caused about $6 billion in structural damage.
