00:00:00A man was hidden, not an easy thing to do.
00:00:13Like someone standing on a chair,
00:00:18with his hands and eyes tied,
00:00:21and hanging from a tree.
00:00:23The rope is tied to the tree.
00:00:27And what kills you is not the execution.
00:00:32What kills you is being left alone.
00:00:38Okay.
00:00:42He kills himself.
00:00:45Why?
00:00:47He waits for someone to come and save him.
00:00:50What if no one comes to save him?
00:00:52What do you see here is a short clip of the hole where Saddam Hussein was found.
00:01:21This is Saddam as he was being given his medical examination today.
00:01:51Saddam Hussein and his sons must leave Iraq within 48 hours.
00:02:21Saddam Hussein and his sons must leave Iraq within 48 hours.

00:03:21Saddam Hussein and his sons must leave Iraq within 48 hours.
00:03:41Saddam Hussein and his sons must leave Iraq within 48 hours.
00:03:54My father named me Alaa.
00:04:00He was the one who chose my wife.
00:04:07We lived on agriculture and hunting.
00:04:24I used to go hunting with my father. He used to teach me.
00:04:29How can I hide from the hunt?
00:04:39When I entered school, I felt like an adult.
00:04:50I felt like an Iraqi.
00:04:54I am an Iraqi citizen.
00:05:15I follow the news that the Americans are in Baghdad.
00:05:24I was afraid for everyone.
00:05:55One day in the morning,
00:06:00I woke up and saw my brother Qais.
00:06:06I saw the fear in his eyes.
00:06:10I asked him, what's wrong?
00:06:13He said, we have guests.
00:06:16I asked, who are the guests?
00:06:19He said, you will know later.
00:06:21I went out.
00:06:30The distance between us and his house was about 700 meters.
00:06:37We didn't talk on the street.
00:06:41He remained silent.
00:06:43I was at the door of the house.
00:06:52I saw three people.
00:06:55They were wearing civilian clothes and guns in their belts.
00:07:01I told my brother,
00:07:04you will know when you go to the second floor.
00:07:09In fact, I went to the second floor.
00:07:17I opened the door and saw Mr. Amami.
00:07:25My heart started beating fast.
00:07:29I was scared.
00:07:32He said, did you recognize me?
00:07:35I said, yes, I recognized you.
00:07:38He raised his hand.
00:07:42He said, my brother,
00:07:45tell me about you.
00:07:48You are a skilled fisherman.
00:07:52I couldn't control myself.
00:07:58He patted my shoulders.
00:08:02Since the Americans were nearby,
00:08:09I didn't think that 150,000 soldiers were looking for me.
00:08:25I was in a small area.
00:08:28I fell into a river.
00:08:34I was sent out of the house.
00:08:38A man got in the car with my brother.
00:08:47He took my brother's car and went home.
00:08:51After we entered the forest,
00:08:54I took the blanket and the mattress to sit on.
00:09:05I made a bed for him.
00:09:08There was a shadow under the tree.
00:09:12He said, come and sleep with me.
00:09:16I went to sleep.
00:09:18I woke up.
00:09:21He said, do you know why I came to you?
00:09:25I said, no, I don't know.
00:09:28He said, on the way,
00:09:31in a dream, someone told me to go to the sleeping house.
00:09:36I went to sleep.
00:09:40At the same time,
00:09:43I was thinking about what would happen.
00:09:46I was afraid.
00:09:49I put my hands on the mattress.
00:09:52I stretched.
00:09:55I fell asleep.
00:09:58I didn't know how to sleep.
00:10:03I didn't know what was going to happen.
00:10:07I didn't know what to do.
00:10:17I was standing at a distance of 100 meters.
00:10:22To be sure.
00:10:25I wanted to believe myself.
00:10:29Was I really Saddam?
00:10:32I couldn't believe it.
00:10:46I couldn't believe it.
00:11:04I was sleeping at around 6 a.m.
00:11:08My brother came to us in a car.
00:11:12We went home. We had breakfast.
00:11:17A group of people came in the car.
00:11:26He looked at us.
00:11:29He said, no, I don't want to go.
00:11:33He got in the car.
00:11:46He got in the car.
00:12:10I couldn't sleep.
00:12:13I was thinking about the Americans.
00:12:16If they knew Saddam Hussein was my brother,
00:12:19what would happen?
00:12:22At the same time,
00:12:25if they didn't know Saddam Hussein was my brother,
00:12:30I would be very worried.
00:12:35I started to think about my family and my children.
00:12:39I felt something was going to happen.
00:12:44I felt like I was in a dream.
00:12:48My brother Qais came to me in the morning.
00:12:52He said, Mr. President is back.
00:12:56Before the sun rises.
00:13:01The problem was that we didn't know what to think.
00:13:06We didn't know anything about him.
00:13:10What did he have inside him?
00:13:13Why did he come back?
00:13:16As you know from our traditions,
00:13:19we don't ask our guests.
00:13:22What if Saddam Hussein comes back?
00:13:36I was in Morocco.
00:13:39My brother came to me.
00:13:42He said, the Americans started to disperse.
00:13:46I heard the sounds of airplanes.
00:13:50I opened the door and said,
00:13:53the Americans started to disperse.
00:13:57I got in the car.
00:14:00He said, where are you going?
00:14:02I said, we are going to America.
00:14:06Because this is the only way to the river.
00:14:10I said, Mr. President, but the planes.
00:14:21I said, pretend you are sick.
00:14:25You will say, my father is sick.
00:14:28I was in a hurry.
00:14:31When I came to America,
00:14:34I was in a difficult situation.
00:14:38I was scared.
00:14:41So, I walked.
00:14:47I said, I want to say my Shahada.
00:14:50Because we are ready to die at any moment.
00:14:54When the Americans saw us,
00:14:57they saw that I was wearing glasses.
00:15:01They said, what are you doing?
00:15:04I said, I am working.
00:15:07So, we went to trade.
00:15:10We left.
00:15:13It was a very difficult situation.
00:15:16The first thing that happened to us
00:15:19was that we approached the Americans
00:15:21in this way.
00:15:44We went deep.
00:15:47We sat under a tree.
00:15:50We stayed in the palace.
00:15:53The plane was about to take off.
00:15:56He looked at me and said,
00:15:59come and sit next to me.
00:16:02At the same time, I was scared.
00:16:05It was normal.
00:16:08I came and sat next to him.
00:16:11He said, do you know
00:16:14that I am Qom Bila Maquta?
00:16:17I said, yes, sir.
00:16:22He said, do you know that if I explode,
00:16:25I will kill you and your whole family?
00:16:30I said, yes, sir.
00:16:37I said, is it possible that you chose us?
00:16:41Whatever happens, let it happen.
00:16:44In fact, I had no other choice.
00:16:50Saddam was sitting next to me
00:16:53and the Americans were looking for him.
00:16:58I didn't know what to do.
00:17:01I had no choice.
00:17:04I had to sacrifice myself.
00:17:13I had to sacrifice myself.
00:17:16I had to sacrifice myself.
00:17:19I had to sacrifice myself.
00:17:22I had to sacrifice myself.
00:17:25I had to sacrifice myself.
00:17:28I had to sacrifice myself.
00:17:31I had to sacrifice myself.
00:17:34I had to sacrifice myself.
00:17:37I had to sacrifice myself.
00:17:40I had to sacrifice myself.
00:17:43I had to sacrifice myself.
00:17:46I had to sacrifice myself.
00:17:49I had to sacrifice myself.
00:17:52I had to sacrifice myself.
00:17:55I had to sacrifice myself.
00:17:58I had to sacrifice myself.
00:18:01I had to sacrifice myself.
00:18:04I had to sacrifice myself.
00:18:07I had to sacrifice myself.
00:18:10I had to sacrifice myself.
00:18:13I had to sacrifice myself.
00:18:16I had to sacrifice myself.
00:18:19I had to sacrifice myself.
00:18:22Of course, every day we receive information
00:18:25that there is a person in need of protection
00:18:29or someone in need of responsibility.
00:18:32So we found out that the Americans
00:18:35started to form a network.
00:18:38If the Americans wanted to reach President Saddam Hussein,
00:18:43they had to reach his relatives.
00:18:47So they had information
00:18:51that most of his relatives and his protection
00:18:55lived in these areas.
00:18:59Tikrit, Ouja, Atrafa,
00:19:03Saddam Hussein,
00:19:05Saddam Hussein was the opposite.
00:19:09They had to cross the coast.
00:19:13If they wanted to come by car,
00:19:16they had to travel 50 km or more
00:19:19to reach our area.
00:19:27In May,
00:19:30no one knew
00:19:32where Saddam Hussein was
00:19:35from all over the world.
00:19:38We were only 7 people
00:19:42who knew where he was.
00:19:45A part of my brothers,
00:19:48a part of the special protection, died.
00:19:51I was left to think and write.
00:19:56I was always alone.
00:20:03After 10 days,
00:20:15we decided to return to the area.
00:20:19At the beginning of the road,
00:20:23there was a lot of water and mud.
00:20:27I said, no, I won't go up,
00:20:29I won't go up the mud.
00:20:40So I came,
00:20:43I stood in front of him,
00:20:46and he climbed on my back.
00:20:49Of course, he was very heavy,
00:20:52not like us, like the rest of us.
00:20:56When I reached him,
00:20:59he laughed and said,
00:21:15the truth is, we didn't return from the island.
00:21:26We quickly took our place,
00:21:29because the Americans were spread out.
00:21:33The distance was about 10 meters
00:21:36between us and the Americans.
00:21:39The truth is,
00:21:42Mr. President, as soon as he saw them,
00:21:45he got a little nervous,
00:21:48because it's hard for an American
00:21:51to walk alone.
00:21:53When I reached him,
00:21:56I held his hand.
00:21:59I held his hand,
00:22:02and I put down the gun.
00:22:05He looked at me,
00:22:08and his look was really scary.
00:22:11After the Americans withdrew,
00:22:14he went to walk alone.
00:22:17The truth is,
00:22:20I said, what did I do?
00:22:23I held his hand,
00:22:26and I was scared.
00:22:43The truth is,
00:22:46I asked myself,
00:22:49do you know Saddam Hussein?
00:22:51Yes.
00:23:03Saddam Hussein had a strange personality.
00:23:11No one could know
00:23:14what was inside him,
00:23:17and what he was thinking.
00:23:19So when a new person
00:23:22stood in front of him,
00:23:25he looked at the moments,
00:23:28he read,
00:23:31and he knew what was inside him.
00:23:34Even after 100 years,
00:23:37he wouldn't give a chance
00:23:40to the person in front of him.
00:23:49The truth is,
00:23:52we didn't know when Saddam
00:23:55would withdraw his gun.
00:23:58We were living in anxiety and fear.
00:24:01As a young person,
00:24:04I couldn't discuss
00:24:07or object
00:24:10to any decision he made.
00:24:20We didn't know
00:24:23if he was a dictator,
00:24:26or a chemical terrorist,
00:24:29or a Shiite oppressor.
00:24:33We didn't know any of this.
00:24:43We live in a small area,
00:24:46with very few people.
00:24:49Even the media is very limited.
00:24:52We only have one TV and one channel.
00:24:57We only knew that Saddam Hussein
00:25:00was a very good person.
00:25:03He lived in a palace.
00:25:06He had a luxurious life.
00:25:09He had an army and protection.
00:25:13But now,
00:25:16it's all in the past.
00:25:19Now, he lives
00:25:22with a farmer
00:25:25in a small farm.
00:25:28He's looking for
00:25:31150,000 American soldiers.
00:25:33Saddam Hussein,
00:25:36a Syrian refugee,
00:25:39was forced to leave
00:25:42his country
00:25:45and return to Syria.
00:25:48He was forced to leave
00:25:51his country
00:25:54and return to Syria.
00:25:57He was forced to leave
00:26:00his country
00:26:03and return to Syria.
00:26:06He didn't know
00:26:09how long he would stay.
00:26:12He didn't know
00:26:15how long he would stay
00:26:18or leave.
00:26:21I was very worried.
00:26:24I always thought
00:26:27that if he was forced to leave,
00:26:30it wouldn't happen.
00:26:33My family and my brothers
00:26:41were very careful
00:26:44because our relatives were against us.
00:26:47We used to plant seeds
00:26:50together with my uncle.
00:26:53It was a common thing
00:26:56to plant seeds
00:26:59in the water
00:27:01of a house.
00:27:04It was a common thing
00:27:07to plant seeds
00:27:10in the water
00:27:13of a house.
00:27:16I suggested
00:27:19that we stay in the farm.
00:27:27It was hard
00:27:29because of the high temperature.
00:27:32He agreed.
00:27:35He suggested
00:27:38that we stay in the farm.
00:27:41He suggested
00:27:44that we stay in the farm.
00:28:00I was very worried
00:28:03because my uncle
00:28:06used to say
00:28:09that it was better
00:28:12to stay home
00:28:15than to go to the farm.
00:28:18They used to say
00:28:21that it was better
00:28:24to stay at home
00:28:26If he comes, he will enter a farm, he will enter far and dense places.
00:28:38In any age, because we used to see the Americans, how they move, how they spread.
00:28:44He said, where are you going to do it? I said, I'm going to do it near the door.
00:29:03I put a fence in front of the farm or from the side.
00:29:14I started digging, I did it in the shape of a T letter.
00:29:44I did it from the floor and the wood, I didn't put anything metal or old.
00:30:08So I made a hole from the plastic to pull the palm tree.
00:30:17I left the hole for the other hole to pull, and there is another hole to push me up.
00:30:25Because I saw the Americans, when they came to the area, they were always with the dogs and they brought them anywhere.
00:30:38So I calculated these calculations.
00:30:42I made the door of the farm in the place where we plant the flowers.
00:30:57I made it from the palm tree, I dug the palm tree and planted the flower in it.
00:31:07The flower was planted in the same way as the palm tree.
00:31:19I was calculating, if there was information that the American soldier would not come and steal the flower, I would say, this is my door.
00:31:38So we entered the farm, I said, let's try it.
00:31:43So I went in and he went in behind me.
00:31:50My brothers jumped on me and told me not to let the air in through the door.
00:31:59We stayed for about 5 to 10 minutes to see if the oxygen was still there.
00:32:07The first stage, we completed the rescue.
00:32:11The second stage, we had to see Saddam and feel that he was a farmer.
00:32:20We brought animals, cows, and other animals.
00:32:28We made a kitchen, we brought everything we needed.
00:32:37We made a special room for the boy.
00:32:41We made a special room for the boy.
00:32:46We made a special room for the boy.
00:32:52We made a special room for the boy.
00:32:58The president was a little embarrassed.
00:33:03He asked me to bring him Mohamed Ibrahim.
00:33:16Mohamed Ibrahim was one of the president's closest relatives.
00:33:21He was a special security officer.
00:33:24He was in charge of all the state institutions.
00:33:28From the army, intelligence, intelligence.
00:33:31Funding for the resistance.
00:33:34Because he knew where the money was.
00:33:37Mohamed Ibrahim was everyone to everyone.
00:33:54Mohamed Ibrahim had a problem.
00:34:00The last time the president visited the Great Mosque,
00:34:05he got in the car with the president.
00:34:19They sat with him for about an hour.
00:34:21They talked about the army and the resistance.
00:34:27And how to fund the resistance.
00:34:29At the end of the 6th month, we heard from the president.
00:34:57The resistance against the Americans grew stronger.
00:35:06At the same time, Mohamed Ibrahim began to rebuild the army and the resistance.
00:35:14Those were the days.
00:35:18But at the beginning of the 7th month,
00:35:23hell befell us.
00:35:54The issue of the 25 million changed everything.
00:36:01Before, we were afraid only of the American army.
00:36:07But now we are afraid of the entire Iraqi people.
00:36:11We doubt our closest relatives.
00:36:15We are a tribe, we know the traditions.
00:36:18We know how to protect our guests.
00:36:25It is difficult to think about this.
00:36:31We don't even think about it.
00:36:34We are busy thinking about how to get rid of the Americans.
00:36:38How to defend ourselves.
00:36:41Yes, if Saddam Hussein and the Americans choose me, I will go with Saddam Hussein.
00:36:50I will go with Saddam Hussein.
00:36:55I will go with Saddam Hussein.
00:37:02Iraq has become a hell.
00:37:11Iraq has become a hell.
00:37:25Today, we were sitting here.
00:37:28We were sitting here.
00:37:38One of my brothers came.
00:37:41He said, look, the Americans have advanced towards us.
00:37:45We saw them spread out on both sides.
00:37:49On the Dijla River and on the other side.
00:37:58In fact, we were able to enter the refugee camp.
00:38:04We were able to arrange ourselves.
00:38:29We gave them biscuits and Pepsi.
00:38:34We hosted them.
00:38:36We told them, you have to get up today.
00:38:39We brought dinner.
00:38:41We had dinner from Morocco.
00:38:43It was dawn.
00:38:46We were able to attract their attention.
00:38:50In fact, when they left, we opened the refugee camp.
00:38:55The president came out.
00:38:57We talked about the situation.
00:38:59We told him, look, we hosted the Americans.
00:39:04In fact, he went with us.
00:39:25He went with us.
00:39:35He asked me to visit Tali.
00:39:39I told him, sir, how are you?
00:39:41You look happy today.
00:39:44He said, I'm going to Khattar today.
00:39:48He said, I'm relaxed today because I'm going to see my children.
00:39:55In fact, it was the beginning of their departure.
00:39:58I didn't see the children.
00:40:02The children came.
00:40:04Mohamed Ibrahim and another person brought them.
00:40:14They started to kiss them.
00:40:16At the same time, of course, they cried.
00:40:19We talked to them.
00:40:26Because they didn't expect their father to live anywhere.
00:40:35He told me, we gave them lunch.
00:40:38I told him, sir, you prepared the lunch by yourself.
00:40:41So you have to continue to give them lunch.
00:40:44He laughed.
00:40:56We gave them lunch.
00:41:00They were talking about the situation of the resistance.
00:41:04He directed them to the children, what they should do.
00:41:14When he finished, he met them.
00:41:18They went out to play.
00:41:20He was very sad.
00:41:24His sadness was very real.
00:41:39He said, my son, I didn't want to follow her.
00:41:42I said, why?
00:41:45You were happy.
00:41:46He said, I am happy that I saw them today.
00:41:52He said, I know them, this is the last time I will see them.
00:42:17On the 22nd of July, I arrived at my friend's house.
00:42:23I saw on the wall that it was written, I was killed.
00:42:28My hands and legs.
00:42:30The picture was also on the wall.
00:42:46We love you.
00:42:51I went out.
00:42:55I was sad.
00:42:59I wanted to go back to the villa.
00:43:02It was hard for me to go back to the villa.
00:43:04The children were killed.
00:43:17I went to the farm.
00:43:26When I arrived, I couldn't find him in the farm.
00:43:31I asked the children, where is he?
00:43:36They said, Mohamed and his brother took him.
00:43:43I was alone.
00:43:46I was alone.
00:43:57I went back to my family and my children.
00:44:04I had three children.
00:44:08I also had a daughter.
00:44:16My family knew that I had a plan.
00:44:21But they didn't know who I was.
00:44:27I always remember, as I always say,
00:44:32that I was a time bomb.
00:44:35Indeed, I was a time bomb.
00:44:40I wanted to see them sleeping.
00:44:43I thought about their future.
00:44:47Their future was unknown.
00:44:49I knew that I would be killed at any moment.
00:44:52But they didn't know that.
00:44:55It was very hard for me to see them sleeping.
00:44:59Or to see them talking to me and laughing.
00:45:03I thought I was busy with them.
00:45:07I didn't have time to think about them.
00:45:10I only thought about their future.
00:45:13What would happen to them?
00:45:37After five days, I went back to the farm.
00:45:43I felt like I was home again.
00:45:48I felt like I was home again.
00:46:08He was crying.
00:46:11I saw him crying.
00:46:16He said,
00:46:18My children were martyred.
00:46:21Now you are my children.
00:46:30He went to Qarba more than once.
00:46:35But no one could stand him.
00:46:42You know that 150,000 American soldiers were looking for him.
00:46:50No one could find him.
00:46:53He had only one house.
00:46:55He knew that no one could enter his house.
00:47:02He knew that no one could enter his house.
00:47:21He stayed there for three days.
00:47:24He was very sad.
00:47:27He thought a lot.
00:47:30He decided to stay with us in the farm.
00:47:36We said,
00:47:38Yes, you can stay with us.
00:47:46I was very sad for him.
00:47:52I didn't think he would be able to continue.
00:47:57After his children were martyred.
00:48:00The opposite happened.
00:48:03He asked me to record his speech.
00:48:08He wanted to show the Americans that he was alive.
00:48:15He also wanted to motivate the resistance.
00:48:22To make them feel that he was there to fight the Americans.
00:48:27We thought that after the recording was released,
00:48:33there would be a lot of analysis.
00:48:37Maybe he recorded in a farm,
00:48:40or in a city,
00:48:42or in a desert.
00:48:44They were even looking for small insects.
00:48:56I turned on the tape.
00:48:59He started his speech.
00:49:06When he finished his speech,
00:49:10I turned on the tape again.
00:49:14He was very happy.
00:49:17He thought it was a good idea.
00:49:21He thought it was a good idea.
00:49:23He thought it was a good idea.
00:49:26He thought it was a good idea.
00:49:31As soon as he finished his speech,
00:49:35there was a loud horn.
00:49:38It sounded like he was in a building,
00:49:43or in an apartment.
00:49:45He was inside a city,
00:49:47not in a farm.
00:49:53He was inside a city,
00:49:55not in an apartment.
00:50:01He was inside a city,
00:50:03not in an apartment.
00:50:06The arrest was the 14th of June,
00:50:09in 2003.
00:50:12He told me about their reaction,
00:50:16the Iraqi people.
00:50:18In my life, I've never thought about what that must mean.
00:50:22This is better than it's gonna be.
00:50:30Put the charge down right here.
00:50:32Get up!
00:50:33Stop! Stop!
00:50:35Stop!
00:50:38Get up! Get up!
00:50:39Come on! Come on!
00:50:41Outside! Come on!
00:50:42Out here! Go!
00:50:45Come on!
00:50:46Go!
00:50:47Get up!
00:50:56Come on!
00:50:57Come on!
00:50:58Why?
00:51:17We've been under a lot of pressure.
00:51:35I suggested to Mr. President,
00:51:38I told him, sir, that we should leave the area.
00:51:47I told him, sir, that we should leave the area.
00:52:00Mount Hamrin is very big.
00:52:08It's not easy for anyone to live there.
00:52:12The temperatures were very high.
00:52:17It's not easy for anyone to live there.
00:52:40My relationship with her got even more complicated.
00:52:45I suggested to her that we should leave.
00:52:48I suggested to her that we should leave.
00:52:51I asked her,
00:52:53I asked her,
00:52:55Why did the Americans take Iraq?
00:52:58Why did the Americans take Iraq?
00:53:01They destroyed the country.
00:53:03She said,
00:53:04She said,
00:53:05Of course, they came to take us.
00:53:08Of course, they came to take us.
00:53:09That's the first thing.
00:53:10They claimed that we had weapons of mass destruction.
00:53:15They claimed that we had weapons of mass destruction.
00:53:16Of course, they knew that we didn't have weapons of mass destruction.
00:53:24So, they decided to invade Iraq.
00:53:33So, they decided to invade Iraq.
00:53:41It was very hot.
00:53:42It was very hot.
00:53:43We were exhausted.
00:53:44We were exhausted.
00:53:48We went back to the farm again.
00:53:58I went to the hospital in Badal.
00:54:03I asked them to learn how to use a pressure device,
00:54:06I asked them to learn how to use a pressure device,
00:54:07how to use a pressure device,
00:54:08how to use a pressure device,
00:54:09What is the first 9 suspicions?
00:54:16They couldn't learn.
00:54:18If she gets sick, I teach her to learn.
00:54:20If she gets sick, I teach her to learn.
00:54:21If she gets sick, I teach her to learn.
00:54:39I saw him swimming in the swimming pool that we built.
00:54:57He was swimming in the soap.
00:55:03I came with him.
00:55:08I asked him to let me wash his back.
00:55:14He said no, I don't want to wash it.
00:55:19So I washed his back.
00:55:24He sat in the water.
00:55:28I washed his back.
00:55:34I felt like he was one of us.
00:55:41I finished washing his back.
00:55:46He told me to sit down.
00:55:50I said no, I don't want to.
00:55:53He said no, you sit down.
00:56:00He praised me.
00:56:03He said it wasn't that hard.
00:56:08At the same time, he considered us like his children.
00:56:12Not only his children, but also his friends.
00:56:15He always felt like he was one of us.
00:56:24He asked me to bring him a cigarette.
00:56:28He smoked it all the time.
00:56:31I brought it to him.
00:56:33Things got better.
00:56:36Everything got better.
00:56:39He was always happy to hear good news.
00:56:45He got used to living in the farm.
00:56:51He didn't believe what he saw.
00:56:56When I brought him a newspaper,
00:57:00it had his picture on it.
00:57:03It had his picture on it.
00:57:06It had his picture on it.
00:57:09The reward was $25 million.
00:57:12The reward was $25 million.
00:57:15It was a good thing between us.
00:57:19He asked me what I said.
00:57:22He said, sir, your price has gone up.
00:57:25He said, sir, your price has gone up.
00:57:28Our relationship started to improve.
00:57:36We told him that if he wanted to get married,
00:57:40he should bring a woman.
00:57:42We didn't mind.
00:57:45It's a custom in the Arab world
00:57:48that when a man is in trouble,
00:57:51he can't find a woman.
00:57:54The problem is how to find a woman
00:57:58when there are 150,000 American soldiers
00:58:02looking for her.
00:58:05It's not that hard.
00:58:15I became Saddam Hussein's personal doctor.
00:58:22I became Saddam Hussein's personal barber.
00:58:28I became Saddam Hussein's personal guard.
00:58:32I became Saddam Hussein's personal driver.
00:58:38I became Saddam Hussein's personal cook.
00:59:00He couldn't listen to me at that time.
00:59:04He couldn't listen to me at that time.
00:59:20Mr. President asked me
00:59:23to call Mohamed Ibrahim.
00:59:26I called him.
00:59:29I met with him.
00:59:32He asked me to contact the leaders
00:59:35and the resistance.
00:59:40He wanted to plan more
00:59:42because the resistance was increasing in America.
00:59:47It was time to plan.
00:59:53He also sent me constant messages.
00:59:58I felt relieved.
01:00:01I felt like everything was back to normal.
01:00:12The Iraqis felt that the Americans
01:00:15didn't do anything.
01:00:18What will happen in Iraq?
01:00:21Where is Saddam Hussein?
01:00:25We have to do this.
01:00:28He decided to form a government.
01:00:31At that time, it was hard for the Americans
01:00:34to go out in the streets.
01:00:37They were always inside the bases.
01:00:40The resistance was increasing in America.
01:00:44The insurgents!
01:00:47Watch out!
01:01:13The second floor!
01:01:39The Americans knew that
01:01:42if the resistance continued,
01:01:45the Iraqi army would be destroyed.
01:02:13The Iraqis didn't know
01:02:16what to do.
01:02:19They didn't know what to do.
01:02:22They didn't know what to do.
01:02:25They didn't know what to do.
01:02:28They didn't know what to do.
01:02:31They didn't know what to do.
01:02:34They didn't know what to do.
01:02:37They didn't know what to do.
01:02:40They didn't know what to do.
01:02:43They didn't know what to do.
01:02:47The resistance of Iran
01:02:50was attacked by the Iraqis.
01:02:53They were forced to flee Iraq.
01:02:56The leaders of the radicals
01:02:59were divided on a national scale.
01:03:09So the Americans started giving themselves money
01:03:12to pay their own people
01:03:15to get information about the resistance of the U.S.
01:03:22The U.S. Army is looking for the Iraqi president.
01:03:25It's crazy.
01:03:27You can find him everywhere.
01:03:30Go, go, go, go, go, go!
01:03:33Push, push, push!
01:03:45The U.S. Army is looking for the Iraqi president.
01:03:50The U.S. Army is looking for the Iraqi president.
01:04:11The arrests of Zine and Hamas have begun.
01:04:16Go, go, go! Watch out, Adel! Watch out!
01:04:19What's your name?
01:04:21What's your name?
01:04:23What's your name?
01:04:26You can find him everywhere.
01:04:32I was really scared.
01:04:36I was really worried.
01:04:49The U.S. Army is looking for the Iraqi president.
01:04:53The U.S. Army is looking for the Iraqi president.
01:04:57The U.S. Army is looking for the Iraqi president.
01:05:18They arrested one of our brothers, Mohammed Ibrahim.
01:05:22Of course, they tortured him a lot.
01:05:25They wanted him to confess to the murder of Saddam Hussein.
01:05:30But he refused to confess.
01:05:38I thought that Mohammed Ibrahim was the last one.
01:05:43He was the last one to appear.
01:05:45He was the president of the U.S. Army.
01:05:49So I decided to replace him.
01:05:54The U.S. Army is looking for the Iraqi president.
01:05:59When Mohammed Ibrahim arrived, the president informed him.
01:06:03He told him not to come.
01:06:06Of course, he was upset by the decision.
01:06:09But he respected the president's decision.
01:06:12The next day.
01:06:23It was a rainy month.
01:06:25It started to get cold.
01:06:33The rain started to fall.
01:06:36The farm and the kitchen were not suitable for living.
01:06:40The roof of the kitchen was made of concrete.
01:06:44So when it rained, water would fall from the roof.
01:06:50It was difficult for us to live in the winter.
01:07:10The next day.
01:07:19In mid-November, Mohammed Ibrahim came to the farm.
01:07:25He was in a hurry.
01:07:29He was carrying a letter in his hand.
01:07:32We asked him where the president was.
01:07:36He said he was in his room.
01:07:40The next day.
01:07:47A few minutes later, we heard a loud noise.
01:07:53It sounded like a scream.
01:08:01I was surprised.
01:08:03For the first time, I heard the president's voice.
01:08:10And Mohammed Ibrahim's voice.
01:08:15I was surprised.
01:08:18They stayed there for 15 minutes.
01:08:28Mohammed Ibrahim came to me.
01:08:33He looked sick.
01:08:39He said,
01:08:41You know, it's been a long time.
01:08:46We've been in this situation for a year.
01:08:51I told him, just sign it.
01:08:54He said, I'll sign it from him.
01:08:59Tomorrow, I'll go back to power.
01:09:02That's right.
01:09:05I wanted him to go back to power.
01:09:10But I didn't have the right to talk to him.
01:09:15I told him to take a break.
01:09:19I told him to go back to power.
01:09:24He said he couldn't talk to me.
01:09:27I told him, I'm not a politician.
01:09:31I'm not a politician.
01:09:36I'm a farmer.
01:09:41My job is to hide from the Americans.
01:09:45I'm not a politician.
01:09:48He stayed with me for 15 minutes.
01:09:55Then he turned on the car and left.
01:10:01Then he turned on the car and left.
01:10:08Then he turned on the car and left.
01:10:15Then he turned on the car and left.
01:10:19He burned the message.
01:10:22He was standing by the river.
01:10:25He said, this is the message.
01:10:28If they ask me to surrender Iraq, I'll say no.
01:10:35I'll surrender Iraq to the Americans.
01:10:39After he received the message, everything changed.
01:11:00I started to worry.
01:11:06I started to worry.
01:11:11He was always angry.
01:11:15He was always lonely.
01:11:19He was always alone.
01:11:24He was always alone.
01:11:30We couldn't talk to him.
01:11:34We tried to stay away from him.
01:11:40He woke up and said, come with me.
01:11:45I went with him.
01:11:48He said, I want to see another place.
01:11:53I said, okay.
01:11:56He said, no, I have to change.
01:11:59He said, no, I have to change.
01:12:04He said, no, I have to change.
01:12:22At the beginning of December, a lot of changes occurred.
01:12:26We saw that the American army is starting to move, there are planes in the air, their
01:12:42army is in the area. I felt that something was wrong.
01:12:57One Sunday, my family went to Morocco. My son was sick and was admitted to the hospital.
01:13:08I had no time to see him. I went to see my son and stayed with him for 5 minutes.
01:13:21I was in Morocco, I went to the farm. I saw my son, and he was screaming.
01:13:33Why did you leave? You don't know the situation.
01:13:40I have been inside for 8 months. I can't sleep.
01:13:50My mind is always busy. I think about when I will fight, when I will try to get away from the Americans.
01:14:02When I came inside, I felt a sense of security.
01:14:14He said, don't be upset with me. I said, no, I won't be upset.
01:14:24He said, let me make you dinner. I said, no, thank you, I don't want dinner.
01:14:30He said, no, you have to come, I will make you dinner.
01:14:40At the same time, we heard sounds in the air.
01:14:54We came out of the kitchen, and there was a change.
01:14:59There was an artificial light.
01:15:04I said, let's go out of the place.
01:15:08The light didn't last long.
01:15:12He came to me, and said, there are lights coming towards the farm.
01:15:26When I opened the door, there were lights.
01:15:32There were planes flying in the air.
01:15:36We didn't know what was going on.
01:15:43I closed the door, and went back to the president.
01:15:49I told him, the area is on fire.
01:15:56I told him, you have to get inside quickly.
01:16:02I closed the door.
01:16:15The laser was aimed at the Americans.
01:16:19In the American language, I couldn't understand.
01:16:25They took off my clothes, and hit me on the head.
01:16:29They hit me on the head.
01:16:31I was in Iraq.
01:16:36They immediately took me to Saddam.
01:16:45I felt like I was going to die.
01:16:50I felt like they had the information.
01:16:55One of the people came up to me.
01:16:59He said, where is the shelter?
01:17:02I said, I don't know.
01:17:04He said, we don't have a shelter.
01:17:07We have a family.
01:17:09We have sheep, goats, and a farmer's family.
01:17:15Where is Saddam?
01:17:18Where is Saddam?
01:17:20Where is Saddam?
01:17:22They hit me on the head.
01:17:27They took a bag out of my head.
01:17:31I was black.
01:17:34Where is Saddam?
01:17:36Where is he?
01:17:38Where is Saddam?
01:17:40I was bleeding.
01:17:43A bag of blood started to flow.
01:17:46I was in a state of confusion.
01:17:49Where is the fucking hole?
01:17:51They were shouting, but we didn't hear them.
01:17:55We had the shelter, but it wasn't there.
01:17:57He said, we have a family.
01:17:59I said, let's go.
01:18:01They let me go in front of them.
01:18:03I let them in the field.
01:18:05We had the word, the shelter, in our words.
01:18:09It was confusing.
01:18:12We had an area in the field.
01:18:15We called it the shelter.
01:18:18We got to the shelter.
01:18:20They said, where is the shelter?
01:18:22Where is Saddam?
01:18:24Here?
01:18:27He said, what are you laughing at?
01:18:30Where is the shelter?
01:18:32I said, where is the shelter?
01:18:34They started hitting me.
01:18:38This guy is fucking with us.
01:18:40Where is Saddam?
01:18:47Stop fucking with us.
01:18:49Tell us the truth, you piece of shit.
01:18:51Where is Saddam?
01:19:08He said, let's go back to the place you brought us from.
01:19:14Because they were scared and anxious at the same time.
01:19:23They thought we had a big army of fighters.
01:19:29So I got to the place.
01:19:34I was in the kitchen for the first time.
01:19:38He said, you are laughing at them.
01:19:40The second group started hitting me.
01:19:42Again.
01:19:44They put the bag back on my head and hit me hard.
01:19:48They hit me hard.
01:19:58They saw me, and I suffocated.
01:20:01I wanted to open the bag.
01:20:12At the same time, the Americans were everywhere.
01:20:17I saw them digging.
01:20:19I knew they were going to kill me.
01:20:24They kept digging.
01:20:26The captain didn't have anything to say.
01:20:28He said, why don't you tell the truth?
01:20:30I said, what is the truth?
01:20:32He said, you came to the wrong place.
01:20:34I said, this is my farm.
01:20:36He said, it was similar to yours.
01:20:38He said, no.
01:20:40He said, we came to your place.
01:20:42Saddam Hussein is here.
01:20:45I said, Saddam, I don't know.
01:20:47He said, it's none of my business.
01:20:49You are mistaken.
01:20:57They were facing me in the opposite direction.
01:20:59They were behind me.
01:21:01They were facing me in the opposite direction.
01:21:03I heard someone say,
01:21:05Ha Ala.
01:21:07He said, Ha Ala.
01:21:14He said, I don't know.
01:21:16He said, I don't know.
01:21:20He was on my side.
01:21:22I raised my head.
01:21:24I looked at him.
01:21:26I looked in the opposite direction.
01:21:28I looked and saw
01:21:30Mohamed Ibrahim.
01:21:34I saw this man.
01:21:38At the same time,
01:21:40I collapsed.
01:21:44I thought I had to kill him at the same place.
01:21:48He said,
01:21:50Ha Ala, where are you?
01:21:52I said,
01:21:54I don't know.
01:21:56I said,
01:21:58Salwan took your brother this morning
01:22:00and went to Samarra.
01:22:04The captain asked, where is Samarra?
01:22:06I said, I don't know.
01:22:08His brother,
01:22:10his brother Mohamed
01:22:12took him this morning and went to Samarra.
01:22:14I said, I don't know.
01:22:18Where is Saddam?
01:22:20He said,
01:22:22General
01:22:24Tahir Ibrahim
01:22:26took him.
01:22:34They all went with Mohamed Ibrahim.
01:22:36They saw this situation.
01:22:38The first thing they did
01:22:40was to open the door.
01:22:46Move, move, move!
01:22:48Start digging!
01:22:54Pull it up, pull it up!
01:23:00At the same time,
01:23:02Saddam and others were screaming.
01:23:04When they opened the door,
01:23:06they saw people inside
01:23:08screaming.
01:23:10The translator was also screaming.
01:23:16He immediately said,
01:23:18Yes, I am Saddam.
01:23:20But immediately,
01:23:22they started shooting
01:23:24tear gas bombs.
01:23:36They started shooting tear gas bombs.
01:23:58The truth is,
01:24:00Mr. Zarif,
01:24:02I was in the Gaza Strip.
01:24:04I was suffocating.
01:24:08I was suffocating.
01:24:10I could only breathe.
01:24:18Immediately,
01:24:20they pulled me out.
01:24:22I was breathing.
01:24:24I was breathing oxygen.
01:24:26I was breathing air.
01:24:28Ladies and gentlemen, we got him.
01:24:34What you see here
01:24:36is a short clip
01:24:38of the hole where Saddam Hussein
01:24:40was found.
01:24:42This is Saddam as he was being given
01:24:44his medical examination today.
01:25:04This is Saddam as he was being given
01:25:06his medical examination today.
01:25:16I went to Abu Ghraib Prison.
01:25:18I went to Abu Ghraib Prison.
01:25:22It's a secret prison.
01:25:24It's a secret prison.
01:25:26It's called Al Mahajer.
01:25:30The next day,
01:25:32I don't know, but I know there were two or three of them.
01:25:39They opened the door and the dogs started barking.
01:25:44We raised the clothes, we didn't have any clothes left.
01:25:47Just the bag and our heads.
01:25:50They started to mock us, laugh at us, as if we weren't human.
01:25:57Of course, their treatment wasn't human.
01:26:00We weren't animals.
01:26:02Animals were treated better than us.
01:26:05They tortured us in every possible way.
01:26:11After that, our place was exposed.
01:26:16Members of the committee, in recent days, there has been a good deal of discussion
01:26:20about who bears responsibility for this.
01:26:23In recent days, there has been a good deal of discussion about who bears responsibility
01:26:27for the terrible activities that took place at Abu Ghraib.
01:26:32I feel terrible about what happened to these Iraqi detainees.
01:26:36After that, they came to investigate with me.
01:26:48They found out that I was a farmer and I didn't have any information.
01:26:53So they decided to release me.
01:26:56I was released about seven months later.
01:27:06I was released about seven months later.
01:27:12I was released about seven months later.
01:27:18I went home.
01:27:21I went home.
01:27:25I couldn't believe that I would see my family again.
01:27:28I couldn't believe that I would see my family again.
01:27:33I am responsible for my words before God and the law.
01:27:44What happened is in the past.
01:27:51I hope that we can benefit from the past.
