HERZLIYA, Israel (Reuters) - Did a clairvoyant help U.S. commandos ferret Saddam Hussein out of his hiding place in Iraq three years ago?
Israeli-born celebrity psychic Uri Geller, best known for his spoon-bending antics, says the power of the paranormal led U.S. troops to the fugitive Iraqi ex-dictator.
"You remember when they found Saddam Hussein in Iraq? A soldier walked over to a rug, lifted it and then found a trap-door and found him in there," Geller told Reuters.
"Well, I know that that soldier walked over to that rug because he got information from a 'remote viewer' from the United States."
Geller, who says he worked for the Central Intelligence Agency during the Cold War, said his information came from a high-level source involved in U.S. paranormal programmes.
A U.S. military spokesman in Iraq had no immediate comment. At the time of his capture, U.S. commanders said a source close to the fugitive had given him up under interrogation.
A Brazilian psychic tried last year to claim a $25 million bounty offered for Saddam's capture, saying he had described the hiding place in letters to the U.S. government.
;D ;D ;D

A U.S. solider who was supposedly among those who captured Saddam Hussein has also stated the whole finding-Saddam- in-a-hole thing was staged, that he was actually found inside a room in a house, like a normal person, not hiding in the ground like a rat. This story was out briefly, then disappeared, we can probably guess why. The point is, if SH wasn't lurking in the hole in the ground, then no psychic could have helped with the search by giving them information that he was!
