CIA and Saddam’s Sex Life Plot: High School Kids Planned it?…………
“During planning for the 2003 invasion of Iraq, the CIA's Iraq Operations Group kicked around a number of ideas for discrediting Saddam Hussein in the eyes of his people. One was to create a video purporting to show the Iraqi dictator having sex with a teenage boy, according to two former CIA officials familiar with the project. “It would look like it was taken by a hidden camera,” said one of the former officials. “Very grainy, like it was a secret videotaping of a sex session.” The idea was to then “flood Iraq with the videos,” the former official said. Another idea was to interrupt Iraqi television programming with a fake special news bulletin. An actor playing Hussein would announce that he was stepping down in favor of his (much-reviled) son Uday. “I’m sure you will throw your support behind His Excellency Uday,” the fake Hussein would intone. The spy agency’s Office of Technical Services collaborated on the ideas, which also included inserting fake “crawls” -- messages at the bottom of the screen -- into Iraqi newscasts…..”
How nice to get paid for coming up with this kind of idiotic stuff. Discrediting Saddam in the eyes of his people? Most of them, 80% at least, already hated him, but he ruled through terror not love and admiration. Did the spooks think that he would lose the next election because of their silly video? Like Senator Vitter (R-La) or Ensign (R-Nev) who could be unseated by a mere sex scandal?
Did they recruit high school kids to plan this nonsense?
