Saddam was captured

* the AP writes an article called "Rice Broadens Indictment of Syria" - it ends thusly (for some reason): "After a long search, U.S. forces captured Saddam in December 2003 hiding in a concealed hole in the ground near his hometown of Tikrit, 80 miles north of Baghdad." LINK

* here's a Guardian article (from the washington desk) about the saddampix that ends in exactly the same way: "Saddam was captured in December 2003 while hiding in a hole in the ground near his home town of Tikrit, 80 miles north of Baghdad. No date has been set for his trial." LINK

isnt that odd? (the first article above says nothing about the pix.) why is the memo reminding us of that, now?

maybe it was a coincidence...
