Saddam Hussein Calls In To Radio Free Iraq
0|
Many people around the world have been cursed with cringe-inducing names (as this BBC story proves). Some, however, are more unfortunate than others.
On last week’s edition of Radio Free Iraq’s weekly call-in show, “Open Windows,” host Ferial Hussein spoke to a caller named Saddam Hussein, who complained that he has been facing discrimination and employment problems in Iraq due to his name.
Internally displaced from Diyala to Najaf, Saddam told Ferial that he had graduated from teaching academy and was attempting to find work with the Ministry of Education. He claimed that although he possessed the basic credentials required for the position, his application was rejected solely on the basis of his unfortunate name.
