Sadam's Old Personal Palace - US EMBASSY NOW

His royal highness
The POOL
Entrance - all Marble and Stone
Abraham, Leo and Me - Gold Door

Mural of 7 nukes aimed at IRAN











Visited the embassy/palace yesterday and the place was unreal - all interior doors GOLD....No wonder the country was broke.

WOW. Those pictures are unreal. It is unfathomable to me that he lived in such wealth while his people were living in squalor. Gold doors! Unbelievable. Of course that pool looked mighty inviting. Can you go back and use it? I can imagine on a hot 115 degree day that pool would be amazing. Aren't there more palaces like that? I was always under the impression that he had multiple palaces of such stature. I'm with Katie though, love the mural of the nukes! when I first looked at that, I wasn't sure what it was, then I read your heading, and was shocked! What a sick individual to have that of all things painted as a mural! Shows you the true depth of this man.

P.S. You looked right at home as "your royal highness" on that couch. I bet you could get used to that ;) If you have any other pics of the palace would love to see them. How's the dwarf bed coming along for you???? Did they make you a big boy bed yet ;)
Love you!
