Saddam forced to see his own cartoon
ANI
London: Former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein is being tormented in jail by being forced to watch himself in the South Park animation series.
He is portrayed in the movie version of the cult cartoon as the Devil’s gay lover.
South Park, the cartoon series was banned in Iraq on its launch in 1999 for showing Saddam as a homosexual. The film featured him trying to take over the world with Satan.
South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone revealed on Monday that Saddam was made to watch the movie 'repeatedly' by the US Marines guarding him.
"I have it on pretty good information from the Marines on detail in Iraq that they showed him the movie. That's really adding insult to injury. I bet that made him really happy," The Sun quoted Matt as saying while speaking at Edinburgh TV Festival.
The American animators also confirmed that Tom Cruise threatened to pull out of all publicity for Mission Impossible III unless Paramount, which also makes South Park, axed a repeat showing of an episode lampooning him.
