Saddam Hussein forced to watch 'South Park' (http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/article/ds36384.html)

Monday, August 28 2006, 19:48 BST - by David Cribb
Saddam Hussein has been forced to watch South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut, according to the film's co-creator Matt Stone.

The former Iraqi leader is portrayed in the movie as a homosexual who is in a relationship with the devil, and Stone claims the prisoner is being forced to watch it "repeatedly" as he is held by US Marines.

And then Satan dumped Saddam for that guy named Chris.

That's even worse. I almost feel bad for him.

Wait...naaaah.

Is it torture, or is this something funny?

Did he complain? Evidently not. Haven't heard his lawyer complain about it.

Sounds like the Doritos thing. He saw a Marine eating Cool Ranch Doritos and wanted to try them. Then he found out that he really, REALLY liked them.

So now, he gets all the Cool Ranch Doritos he wants. He had evidently never had them before.

Probably never saw South Park before, either. Maybe Saddam has a sense of humor, too.

I wouldn't believe Matt Stone alone on this. It sounds like something I wouldn't mind being done to Saddam, though :p

Maybe they should run some Michael Dudikoff films where he gets into a peronal vendetta with the dictator of Iraq over a white girl for good measure ;)

I don't think so.

How exactly could they 'force' him to watch it?
Do a 'Clockwork Orange' on him?

Cause if all they've done is set the TV up outside his cell with it on endless loop - well, one could soon learn to ignore it. If it's on real loud, it'd soon irritate the guards as well, so I can't see them being too happy about it.

Also, AFAIK Saddam can't speak english (can he?), so how would he know what the hell the movie's about? He'd see himself for a few minutes in a badly drawn cartoon with no idea as to the context. Hardly a mind-fuck there.

Even if he did understand it, I'd wager all it'd do is reinforce his beliefs that the US is a modern-day Sodom and Gomorrah that's doomed itself to the fiery pits of Hell.


I think it's prob more a desperate attempt by Trey to re-establish South Park as cutting edge and troll for some more viewers.

Come now - there's far worse RealityTV out there. The Bachelorette for eg?
Or any of those "When ____ attacks!" or "________makeover from hell!" shows.

Or especially the Danger shows where they have 3 seconds of footage and have to drag it out into a 5 minute segment. So they just show the start of the footage over and over again for 4.5 minutes, except for the interesting bit at the end, which they finally at the end.

That's what Pol Pot deserved.

Either that or Eurovision song contest.

Hey-they improvised and overcame. No company actually makes "beating" cables, do they?
They made much better use of the cable flaying backs than watching infidel TV.


Imagine sadam's makeover show, with the dandiest male haridressers clipping and styling his hair. Maybe they could affix that adorable little derby with a rakish tilt on his head and some women could brush his teeth for him.
They could then laser that wart off his head, trim his nose hair and he could be unveiled in court- by the guys from American Chopper.

Are they making a sadam bike yet?

Arabic probably. Most common language around those parts.

As for the Doritos thing - I'd assume that there'd be some guards there that can speak Arabic, just for safety and convenience. Especially when eavesdropping on any conversations Saddam might have with other inmates or his lawyer.
Or he may have told his lawyer, who passed the request on.
Or he may have just used body language to show his interest and desire for the Dorito.

You'd be surprised how much info you can get across using gestures and/or pictures. I was in Taiwan last week, and saw a little gas cooker I liked (ideal for my stovetop espresso maker, cause the rings on my gas stove are too wide apart to sit it on).
I wanted to know if it was ok to take it onboard a plane. Unfortunately, her english was only a little better than my Mandarin.
So I drew a plane, flying from Taiwan to HK. Then I drew the characters for 'no' and don't' and pictures of a knife, a gun and the gas cooker.
She understood and told me it was fine.
Which it was.

He would have to work with them too- sadam is given a gas station or convenience store and he has to gross a certain amount in sales by day's end. Paris and Nicole are his only employees.


If they fail, sadam goes before a firing squad at dawn the next day-he is tied to a post, given a last cigarette, then Paris and Nicole stumble in, fighting over a pink rifle as one of them has to shoot him. And they only have a dozen bullets.
He wonders how it came to this as an impossibly small dog with chinchilla leg warmers and an emerald tiara tears at his pant cuff
