bootsSlogger, points to Al-Jazeera who has a source claiming the entire execution crew had been
replaced by the Mahdi Army and this “pro-Ba’athist” site which claims one of the masked men is Sadr

The Turkish site Zaman.com adds:
It has been also alleged that Shiite cleric Moqtada al-Sadr was in the room during the execution, and
even that a masked al-Sadr hanged the ousted leader. The Saudi daily Al- Mokhtasar claimed that one of
the masked men who took Saddam to the room of execution was Moqtada al-Sadr. In the news reported by a
witness in the room, he added al-Sadrs father was killed by Saddam Hussein.

direction than in ugg boots.
