THE REAL SADDAM MEETS HIS SOUTH PARK SELF

From Yahoo, courtesy of Screen Caper, courtesy of J. Orlin Grabbe:

Former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein is being made to watch his appearance in cult cartoon South Park while he is behind bars.

The deposed leader on trial in Iraq was featured in the movie spin-off as the lover of the devil. South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut featured Hussein and Satan attempting to take over the world together.

Okay, as anybody who reads this blog knows, I totally opposed the invasion, and now the occupation, of Iraq. That doesn't mean, however, and this is obvious to anyone who's not a moron, that I think Saddam Hussein is a good guy. On the contrary, he was a brutal, barbarous, murdering despot, one of the worst motherfuckers to ever be on the CIA payroll, and not all of his cruelty was approved by the US. Consequently, it's pretty difficult to have much sympathy for his current plight. Indeed, this is goddamned funny.

I sure hope the DVD they're using has Arabic subtitles.
