Saddam's Noose

"A cynical Arab friend of mine predicted that, following his hanging, Saddam's effects would probably end up auctioned on the Internet. But more than mere cynicism is necessary to address the case of Saddam's noose, because the Arab press is reporting that a Kuwaiti businessman has offered to buy the rope used to hang Saddam.

Iraqslogger offers a version in English. The site writes that "al-`Arabiya reported on its website that a 'Kuwaiti Businessman' had offered to pay 'any sum necessary' to acquire the rope with which Saddam was hanged. According to al-`Arabiya, the businessman was told that the rope is currently in the possession of Muqtada al-Sadr.""
