Mohammed Saeed al-Sahaf (Arabic محمد سعيد الصحاف also Mohammed Said al-Sahhaf), nickname "Baghdad Bob" (born 1940) is a former Iraqi diplomat and politician. He entertained millions around the world during the 2003 Invasion of Iraq, during which he was the Information Minister of the country. Displaying a disregard for reality rivalling that of George W. Bush, he confidently predicted a total victory for Saddam Hussein's Baathist forces: "We made them drink poison last night and Saddam Hussein's soldiers and his great forces gave the Americans a lesson which will not be forgotten by history. Truly. Our estimates are that none of them will come out alive unless they surrender to us quickly."
