Baghdad, Iraq – Saddam Ends Hunger Strike

Baghdad, Iraq – Saddam Hussein ended his hunger strike in the U.S.-run prison.

The former Iraqi leader had refused lunch Thursday in protest at the killing of one of his lawyers by gunmen, but he ate his evening meal.
The former Saddam aides being held in the same prison had refused to eat three meals since Wednesday evening but ended their fast with the ex-president. “They all took their dinner meal,” a spokesman said.
