saddam hussein hanging Saddams Prison Diaries Show He Was Afraid Of Catching AIDS

The Pentagon has released excerpts of Saddam Hussein’s diary that he wrote in daily while being held in an American detention facility in Iraq.

According to his writings, Saddam feared catching AIDS when he discovered that his U.S. military guards sometimes used his clothes line to dry their clothes.

When Saddam found out his U.S. military guards were also using his laundry line to dry clothes, he wrote that he demanded they stop, according to the excerpts.

“I explained to them that they are young and they could have young people’s diseases,” Saddam wrote. “My main concern was to not catch a venereal disease, an HIV disease, in this place.” He said some soldiers ignored his request.

Obviously, Saddam was about 20 years behind in common knowledge about AIDS since he thought it could be transmitted via clothes line.

Also, it’s not like we were gonna let him live long enough to catch anything anyway.

    So the only person guilty of anything is president Bush? Saddam was just an innocent guy? Come on Wilver, don’t be such a loon.

    That’s dumb that he was worried about AIDS. He should’ve known that something else was going to kill him faster.

    Wilver…..
