In December 2006, one of Saddam Hussein’s military uniforms was sold for $16,000, and now the auction continues.

London’s Mail on Sunday has this amazing story today:

Haitham Wihaib, Saddam’s former right-hand man is selling gifts he claims the tyrant gave him in a bid to raise £350,000 for Iraqi schools.

Wihaib, who worked for the dictator for nearly 20 years, has set up a Web site inviting bids for Saddam’s treasured watches, jewelry, pens and clothes.

Among other gifts, you can bid for these three:

A gold watch, a pair of sun glasses, and a silver ring.
