and people will believe you. That's what's going on in Iraq right now.
Hundreds of people were seen at the police building on Tuesday night. They came from Baghdad and other Iraqi provinces and some said they had been sleeping there since the amnesty was announced Sunday.They said security officials told them they would see their relatives once release procedures are completed — though government officials have insisted Iraq's prisons had already been emptied.
Government opponents contemplating going home have the example of Saddam's two sons-in-law. The two brothers, married to Saddam's daughters, fled into exile in 1995 and talked with Western intelligence agents. They went back to Iraq six months later under an offer of forgiveness, and were killed within hours of their return.
