Saddam forced to watch South Park ‘repeatedly’

FORMER Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein is being made to watch his appearance in cult cartoon South Park while he is behind bars, it emerged yesterday.

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 (1999) featured Saddam and Satan attempting to take over the globe together.

Speaking at the Edinburgh International Television Festival, South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone said US Marines guarding the former dictator during his trial for genocide were making him watch the movie “repeatedly”.

Stone said: “I have it on pretty good information from the Marines on detail in Iraq that they showed him the movie last year.

“That’s really adding insult to injury. I bet that made him really happy.”
