Maybe there are some people who depend on him in nearly every way. such as power, money...
Saddam is not the only one to rule this country. There is no more real opposition in his family, party and gouvernment.

"They may be brutal, but they are not stupid."

Yes working for Saddam is a very smart thing to do!

Peter you are brilliant!!!!!! :P :P

Not the inner circle, they have everything they desire, money, supplies, everything. And they will loose everything if they turn him in, including probably their lives. They may be brutal, but they are not stupid.

Hussein has nowhere to hide. His people will turn him in or kill him in a flash.

I heard that Saddam burst his eardrum or something.

That is, if they ever get him! When I am correct Jay Leno said something similiar about Osama bin Laden .....

"There are now reports that Saddam Hussein was injured in the initial U.S. bombing and he’s now receiving medical care in an underground bunker. In fact, he asked his doctors if he was going to live and they told him, "Oh yeah, absolutely, you’ll live – until the Americans get here ... then you’re screwed." —Jay Leno
