Saddam Discovered on Mars

Sept 9, 2003

A spokesman from NASA reported today that they have incontrovertible proof that Saddam Hussein is hiding on the planet Mars.  The spokesman showed photographs taken by the Mars Global Surveyer spacecraft in orbit around the Red Planet.  The spokesman described the photos as the highest resolution images yet obtained of the infamous "Martian Face".   Previous images of this surface feature vaguely resembled a human face.  The high resolution photos taken by Global Surveyer show the face in much more detail.  The photos included digitally enhanced images of the Martian Face.

The new images are purported to be a message from the denizens of Mars that they are harboring Saddam.  Nasa has turned the photos over to the Department of Homeland Security.  A spokeman for Tom Ridge, Secretary of Homeland Security, reported that communications from Mars had been intercepted.  These radio messages appeared to be instructions to Iraqi citizens to continue their attacks on the "infidel occupiers".

The Homeland Security spokesman also reported that they have received detailed images from the Mars Exploration Rover spacecraft "Spirit", currently enroute to Mars.  These images are being touted as proof of the existence of weapons of mass destruction on the surface of Mars, and are possibly the very weapons that Iraq possessed before the war in March and April.

The president has called a special session of the U.N. to present the new evidence.  The president made a brief statement, saying "we've finally caught them, and we're going to nail them."  The president is also said to be considering possible military options.  "We have not ruled out any avenue, up to and including a military response against Mars", the president said.
