Saddam located, CIA told Bush

JUST hours before the attack on Iraq began, the CIA reportedly told US President George Bush that the spy agency believed it had a fix on Saddam Hussein’s location.

CIA Director George Tenet told Bush he not only knew where the Iraqi leader was, but also believed he knew where he would be for hours to come consulting with advisers at a known private residence in southern Baghdad, The Washington Post said.

Those advisers were believed to include Saddam's two sons, Qusai and Uday. Officials said it was unclear whether any of the three were near the target, or had been killed. Both sons hold high-level security positions in Saddam's regime.
