No Sale For Saddam's Yacht

Even a government can't sell a yacht in these tough times. The 269-foot yacht that once belonged to Saddam Hussein has failed to sell. The yacht will be towed from Greece to a Basra, Iraq. The Iraqi government has had the yacht on sale for $30 million since last fall. The yacht, was done up for Saddam Hussein in a lavish style with marble and gold and features a bulletproof atrium, two medical treatment centers and a swimming pool. It had been in Greece for maintenance work.
