Saddam Hussein Was Captured by Kurdish Forces, Drugged and Left for the US

Saddam Hussein was captured by US troops only after he had been taken prisoner by Kurdish forces, drugged and abandoned. A British Sunday newspaper reported that members of the patriotic union of Kurdistan had captured and drugged Saddam. They then negotiated with the US for a bounty and abandoned him to be found by our troops. This is an interesting story, but it's never been confirmed.
