After that, he was handed to some U.S. army soldiers to guard him and those 12 soldiers were called the super twelve. One of those soldiers even called him a caged lion. Over the time they spent with him, Saddam shared many stories and smoked cigars, and it seems that the 13 men became friends.

Saddam loved Dostoevsky and Naguib Mahfouz, and after being captured, he frequently requested reading and writing materials. “You must understand, I am a writer,” he told John Nixon, a CIA interrogator, “And what you are doing by depriving me of pen and paper amounts to human rights abuse!”.

THE WACO SEIGE ( CHURCH - POLICE STAND - OFF) The Branch Davidians or Davidianism are a religious community founded in 1959 by Ben Roden. It is an offshoot of the Davidian Seventh-Day Adventist Church, established by Victor Houteff in the 1930s. Houteff was a Bulgarian immigrant to the United States and a Seventh-day Adventist. He belived himself to be the messiah (Major Reddish Flag) , with a hundreds of videos and recordings proclaiming this . he wrote a series of tracts entitled the "Shepherd’s Rod." The tracts called for the reform of the Seventh-day Adventist church. His ideas were rejected by Adventist leaders, and in 1935, Houteff and his followers settled near Waco and began preparing for the Second Coming. Houteff's group eventually moved to a farm near Waco, Texas. Roden took possession of the settlement, which was known as Mt. Carmel, in 1962. The Branch Davidians are most associated with the Waco siege of 1993, a 51-day standoff between Branch Davidians and federal agents. The conflict ended when the group's compound was destroyed in a fire. Ten people were killed during the initial raid, and 76 later that week. Howell, who acquired the position of spiritual leader from Roden, asserted it by changing his name to David Koresh, suggesting that he had ties to the biblical King David and Cyrus the Great (Koresh is the Hebrew version of the name Cyrus). He wanted to create a new lineage of world leaders.This practice later served as the basis for allegations that Koresh was committing child abuse, which contributed to the siege by the ATF. Interpreting Revelation 5:2, Koresh identified himself with the Lamb mentioned therein.[14][15] This is traditionally believed to symbolize Jesus Christ, however, Koresh suggested that the Lamb would come before Jesus and pave the way for his Second Coming. By the time of the 1993 Waco siege, Koresh had encouraged his followers to think of themselves as "students of the Seven Seals," rather than as "Branch Davidians." During the standoff, one of his followers publicly announced that he wanted them to thereafter be identified by the name "Koreshians". On February 28, at 4:20 AM, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms attempted to execute a search warrant relating to alleged sexual abuse charges and illegal weapons violations.The ATF attempted to breach the compound for approximately two hours until their ammunition ran low. Four ATF agents (Steve Willis, Robert Williams, Todd McKeehan, and Conway Charles LeBleu) were killed and another 16 agents were wounded during the raid. The five Branch Davidians killed in the 9:45 AM raid were Winston Blake (British), Peter Gent (Australian), Peter Hipsman, Perry Jones, and Jaydean Wendell; two were killed by the Branch Davidians.Almost six hours after the ceasefire, Michael Schroeder was shot dead by ATF agents who alleged he fired a pistol at agents as he attempted to re-enter the compound with Woodrow Kendrick and Norman Allison.His wife claimed that he was merely returning from work and had not participated in the day's earlier altercation.Schroeder had been shot once in the eye, once in the heart, and five times in the back. After the raid, ATF agents established contact with Koresh and others inside of the compound. The FBI took command after the deaths of federal agents, and managed to facilitate the release of 19 children (without their parents) relatively early into the negotiations.The children were then interviewed by the FBI and the Texas Rangers.Allegedly, the children had been physically and sexually abused long before the raid. [b]On April 19, 1993, the FBI moved for a final siege of the compound using large weaponry such as .50 caliber (12.7 mm) rifles and armored Combat Engineering Vehicles (CEV) to combat the heavily armed Branch Davidians. The FBI attempted to use tear gas to flush out the Branch Davidians. Officially, FBI agents were only permitted to return any incoming fire, not to actively assault the Branch Davidians. When several Branch Davidians opened fire, the FBI's response was to increase the amount of gas being used.Around noon, three fires broke out simultaneously in different parts of the building. The government maintains that the fires were deliberately started by Branch Davidians.Some Branch Davidian survivors maintain that the fires were started either accidentally or deliberately by the assault.Of the 85 Branch Davidians in the compound when the final siege began, 76 died on April 19 in various ways, from falling rubble to suffocating effects of the fire, or by gunshot from fellow Branch Davidians.The siege lasted 51 days.[/b] In the late 1980s, Koresh and his followers abandoned many Branch Davidian teachings. Koresh became the group's self-proclaimed final prophet."Koreshians" were the majority resulting from the schism among the Branch Davidians, but some of the Branch Davidians did not join Koresh's group and instead gathered around George Roden or became independent. Following a series of violent shootouts between Roden's and Koresh's group, the Mount Carmel compound was eventually taken over by the "Koreshians.

THE UNIFICATION CHURCH Known for its Christain Doctrines and Alleged brain washing , Sun Moon , the founder and God like figure , was supposedly banned in Germany for his supposed bad influence , one of his most controversial ploys was organising mass wedding and arangements for mass forgivness of sin , he would call mass cleansing/blessings, including forgiveness of rapists, murderers and all kind , before long people amass would come to him for forgiveness along with their ever willing hearts (this alone shouts red flag for me),well that's just me Moon did not originally intend to form a separate or distinct denomination or organization and did not give his group of followers an official name until 1954.The informal name "Unification Church" (Korean: Tongilgyo) was commonly used by members of the group and also by the public and the news media. Moonies is a colloquial term first used in 1974 by the American media.Unification movement members have used the word, including Moon himself, the president of the Unification Theological Seminary David Kim, and Bo Hi Pak, Moon's aide and president of Little Angels Children's Folk Ballet of Korea. In the 1980s and 1990s the Unification Church of the United States undertook an extensive public relations campaign against the use of the word by the news media. In other contexts it is still sometimes used and not always considered pejorative. By 2018 term "Unification movement" was widely used After World War II and the Japanese occupation ended in 1945, Moon began preaching his message. In 1946, Moon traveled alone to Pyongyang in Communist-ruled North Korea. Moon was arrested on allegations of spying for South Korea and given a five-year sentence to the Hŭngnam labor camp. In 1950, after serving 34 months of his sentence, Moon was released from North Korea during the Korean War when United Nations troops advanced on the camp and the guards fled. In 1953, Moon divorced Choi. It is also reported that he had a child with a different woman in 1954. Moon's teachings, called the Divine Principle, were first published as Wonli Wonbon (원리 원본, "Original Text of the Divine Principle"wink in 1945 all scam works). Moon built his first church as a refugee in Pusan Moon moved to the United States in 1971, although he remained a citizen of the Republic of Korea. In the 1970s, he gave a series of public speeches in the United States, including one in Madison Square Garden in New York City in 1974; two in 1976 in Yankee Stadium in New York City; and one on the grounds of the Washington Monument in Washington, DC, where he spoke on "God's Hope for America" to 300,000 people. In 1975, the HSA-UWC held one of the largest peaceful gatherings in history, with 1.2 million people in Yeouido, South Korea. In the 1970s the Unification movement, along with some other new religious movements, became a target of the anti-cult movement. On the basis of theories that have not gained acceptance in mainline social science,"anti-cult" activists accused the movement of having "brainwashed" its members.At the same time, members reported that they were kidnapped and forcibly "deprogrammed" by those who wanted to pull them out of the movement. In 1982, Moon was convicted in the United States of filing false federal income tax returns and conspiracy: see United States v. Sun Myung Moon. He served 13 months of the sentence at the Federal Correctional Institution, Danbury.The case was protested as a case of selective prosecution and a threat to religious freedom by, among others, Jerry Falwell, head of Moral Majority, Joseph Lowery, head of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, Harvey Cox a Professor of Divinity at Harvard, and Eugene McCarthy, United States Senator and former Democratic Party presidential candidate. Starting in the 1980s Moon instructed HSA-UWC members to take part in a program called "Home Church" in which they reached out to neighbors and community members through public service.In 1991 Moon announced that Um members should return to their hometowns and undertake apostolic work and rituals which would lead to a hundred mixing wrong ingredients and sometimes poisonous items to be injected by the followers
