I don't think that video of him in a crowd high-fiving people is him. He always uses doubles in crowds - and he wouldn't expose himself right now with our Special Ops crawling all over the city unless he wants his head ventilated for him. You can see by this side-by-side photo that the Saddams don't match.
The Iraqis don't have electricity for their TVs, so this video is for our consumption - or, rather, for CNN to ram it down our throats and to talk about it as if Saddam's alive. The media makes it sound as if he gave the name of the pilots from that lost Apache, or claim he described "events" that happened since the war started. Wrong, wrong, wrong.
He could easily have cited the name of that supposed farmer, or held up a newspaper or mentioned the sandstorm or any of a hundred things to prove he's alive. He did none of that.
