>...the C.I.A. is in possession of DNA samples from Hussein's son-in-law but
cautioned, "Intelligence sources suggest that may not be a close enough
relative to be match." If that's what the sources are suggesting, they don't
seem to be too intelligent. Wouldn't the odds of identical DNA be a little
better with a blood relative?<
There are a lot of close kin type marriages there.... so, son-in-law may also
be a blood relative. And, unless one has an identical twin (or other clone),
it would be HIGHLY unlikely that anyone else would be an "exact match"--
they'd be looking for partial matches. How they'll be able to tell if the
"partial match" is SH, one of his sons, nephews, cousins or some other in-law
is anybody's guess... probably by wishing hard.....
