I don't believe this for a second.
They have plenty of other footage. I've seen it on a couple of stations. They've got footage of about three million different "experts" speculating on what this means. They've got footage of half the members of the Bush admin speculating on what this means. They've got footage of Saddam & friends beating the isht out of people (which, despite its shock value, might be a better choice if they want to dehumanize Saddam given the reactions that Kiki and many other people I know have had to this footage).
Seeing Saddam get checked over for lice is NOT history in the making, and it is nowhere on par with the footage of the towers going down over and over again.
