Aide: Saddam Gone in Two Weeks
The Iraqi regime will fall within the next two weeks, a former aide to dictator Saddam Hussein who claims to be in daily contact with senior Iraqi officials told the German weekly Bild am Sonntag.
"I'm convinced that the regime will fall within the next 15 days," Hatiham Rashid Wihaib said Sunday. "Saddam knows that it is only a question of time. That's why he has prepared an exile in luxury."
Wihaib, Saddam's former protocol chief, 52, settled in London in 1995, according to Bild am Sonntag.
"Saddam Hussein wants to meet up with his family as soon as Baghdad has fallen," he said. "If that's no longer possible, he asked his body guards to shoot him because he does not want to be arrested alive under any circumstances."
