315R-HO-1448534 Continuation of FD-302 of ALL HASAN AlL-MAJTD AL-TIKRITI : 2On 02/04/2004 _ Page: MAJID denied personal knowledge or responsibility regarding Iraqi use of chemical weapons during the Iran-Iraq War, against the Kurds, or at any other time. He stated, "I never used or saw anything about chemicals." _ MAJID avoided interfering with "things that had. nothing to do" with him. ‘He felt as if Hussein was "watching" him. At one point, Hussein’ took some property from MAJID. ‘ When asked whether he feared Hussein in the past, MAJID réplied, "Yes. I was afraid that if I. disobeyed him, he would tell _our tribe that I was a coward." When asked whether he feared Hussein now, MAJID replied, "No.. If given a month to talk to our tribe, I would ‘be able to convince them and Saddam would lose to me." , MAJID wishes Hussein was dead. MAJID wishes Hussein had “martyred or killed" himself instead of being captured. Hussein's sons (Qusay and Uday) died "honorably," even though Uday was a bad person. in contrast, Hussein's ending (capture) was "lousy," displayed his cowardice, and brought shame to the tribe. Martyrdom of Hussein would have brought honor to the tribe. After Hussein's capture, MAJID offered to. kill him for the US military. MAJID believes history will be the judge of Iraq and Hussein as its ruler for the past twenty-four years: MAJID does not consider himself a failure, except ‘that he “stayed with Hussein." MAJID feels he had no choice but'to carry out Hussein's orders. : Though Hussein is no longer head of their tribe, MAJID stated that he could, not testify against him because it would tshame the tribe." If given the opportunity to first talk to the tribe, MAJID feels he could explain the situation. Then, he might be able to provide information in public. regarding Hussein.
