Uhhh, the fact that he's dead has yet to be disproven. Nothing he said in ANY of the interviews has mentioned anything current. Everything he's said could have been said a week ago.
Seems to me that if I was Saddam and I just owned a convoy and took prisoners, I sure as hell would mention that as a big "Fuck You America". Only thing semi-relevant he mentioned was Umm Qsar, which is the city on the exact border of Kuwait / Iraq (half of the damn city is in Kuwait). To get into Iraq, you HAVE to go through that city, so it's not exactly rocket science he was able to mention that.
