It was 2 days after the U.S. military forces entered Baghdad.  The bedouin tent sat alone on a small rise on the road to a 1,200-year old Umayyad palace in Syria's desert.  In spite of their isolation, the family was fully current as to the events, and the senior wife was candid in sharing her opinions of the USA's motives and the whereabouts of Saddam Hossein.
