Lost Fortune

Sometimes we do not find treasure in a field, but something else. After months of searching, American soldiers found the dictator Saddam Hussein last December 2004. He lay in a small hole surrounded by his symbols of lost power – two AK-47s, a pistol, and $750,000 in $100 bills.

I remember when Saddam’s palaces were shown on TV. How unimaginable it was that this man would build resplendent buildings all over Iraq when his people needed food, medicine and jobs.
