Quote:The raid on the farm in al-Dawr, a village 15 miles from his hometown of Tikrit, initially came up empty, the official said. There was no Saddam Hussein in sight. Then one man on the property, apparently realizing the game was up, pointed out a bricked-in wall inside the basement of a small house on the property. Saddam is in there, he told the special forces operators from Task Force 121, who took down the farm with the aid of soldiers from the 1st Brigade of the Fourth Infantry Division. Saddam was bricked into his hiding place, he added. They couldnt get him out at first and had to dig, from either side of the hole, said the official. The soldiers finally made a large enough passageway to drag him out. When he came out, he looked bedraggled, said the official: He looked like a homeless man at the bus station.
