Oh, for the love of god...


Former Iraqi Information Minister Mohammed Saeed al-Sahhaf is attempting to surrender to US forces, according to a London-based Arabic newspaper.

But Al-Sharq al-Awsat says the Americans have refused to arrest Mr Sahhaf - who became a familiar face during the war with his upbeat assessments of Iraqi military "successes" - because he does not appear on their "most wanted" list of 55 former regime officials.

An Iraqi Kurdish official told the newspaper that Mr Sahhaf was staying at his aunt's house in Baghdad, and was under surveillance by US forces.

That's gotta suck. You're the spokeman for the most powerful man in your country, your countries version of Ari Fleischer, then your world is turned upside-down. You have to move in with your family. OK, maybe its because your apartment building was bombed, and not because you lost your job. And you're so unpopular, you can't even get arrested!
