BAGHDAD - The streaker who disrupted Saddam Hussein's execution, Robert A. Haas of the United States, was arrested by Iraqi police today and charged with disorderly conduct and disrobing with intent to disrupt an ex-dictator's hanging.
Ironically, Haas's grandfather, Clinton Arthur Haas, was similarly arrested for streaking at the execution of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg in 1953.
Haas has no regrets. "Saddam looked over at me and chuckled," said Haas. "I guess I'm kind of proud that the last thing this madman saw before he died was my tallywacker."
