hahah! he was looking for his 20 cc Yhama motorcycle, like the Suzooki (Suzuki) used by one-eyed Maualana sahib of Afghanistan.
Poor Saddam didn’t know his fellow terrorists took the motorcycle and turned it to suicide machine.

Saddam tells UK tabloid of betrayal
LONDON: A lawyer for Saddam Hussein said the deposed Iraqi leader believes someone tipped off US forces to his whereabouts, resulting in his capture from a spider hole near his hometown of Tikrit, a newspaper reported Monday.
The Sun quoted former US Attorney General Ramsey Clark as giving Saddam’s view of his capture two years ago.
“Saddam thinks he was gassed in the tunnel,” the newspaper quoted Clark as saying. “He tried to get to the exit of the tunnel. But he did not have time to get away. He told us he spent maybe minutes in this tunnel -not hours or days.
“When he started to get out there were soldiers around that area. There was supposed to be a motorcycle there. It was gone,” Clark told the newspaper. He is a member of Saddam’s defence team in the trial on mass murder charges. “Saddam knew the person who owned the house wasn’t there. He knew he had been betrayed,” Clark said.
He said Saddam told his lawyers that he had been moving around Iraq daily with the help of insurgents. “But every few days he came back to this escape area. Now he knows it was a mistake. Probably American soldiers did not discover the hole. They were told about it,” Clark said.
According to US forces who pulled Saddam from his hiding place, his first words to them were: “I am Saddam Hussein, I am the president of Iraq and I want to negotiate.”
The Sun quoted a man identified as Issam Gazyzwi, said to be another of Saddam’s lawyers, as saying Saddam had not seen the picture of himself dressed only in underpants which appeared on The Sun’s front page in May.
“Saddam has not actually seen the pictures. He tried to take it philosophically,” Gazyzwi was quoted as saying.
Saddam has since gone on trial along with seven of his deputies for the massacre of 148 Shias from Dujail village following an assassination attempt on the former president in 1982, and faces a possible death sentence.
The Sun, a famously eurosceptic paper with a particular fondness for needling France, also quoted Saddam on his relations with French President Jacques Chirac.
“Chirac has been a longtime friend of mine,” the paper cited him as saying.
In May, The Sun printed photographs it had obtained of Saddam in his prison cell clad only in his underwear. “Tyrant’s in his pants”, was the gleeful headline, using the British term for underwear briefs.
