"It had all the hallmarks of a precision military operation. When American soldiers pulled opened a trapdoor and found a dishevilled looking Saddam Hussein, it was assumed the US had employed the latest surveillence techniques to track down the deposed dictator.
But the hunt may have been simpler - and shadier - than previously supposed.
Celebrity pyschic Uri Geller says the US military used a clairvoyant to find the Iraqi leader.
"You remember when they found Saddam Hussein in Iraq? A soldier walked over to a rock, lifted it and then found a trap-door and found him in there," Geller said.
"Well, I know that that soldier walked over to that rock because he got information from a 'remote viewer' from the United States."
Geller, who says he worked for the CIA during the Cold War, said his information came from a high-level source involved in US paranormal programmes.
The US military spokesman in Iraq refused to comment.
The US said at the time a source close to the Saddam had betrayed him under interrorgation.
A Brazilian psychic tried last year to claim the £13m bounty offered for Saddam's capture.
Geller became a household name in Britain for his spoonbending antics and mind-reading feats.
But critics say his stunts have nothing to do with the power of the mind or the paranormal and are just clever tricks."
I remember the BBC mentioned that Saddam stated that the Americans were using psychics against him, so there may be some credit to the above story.
