Baghdad - Saddam Hussein is alive in Iraq, and "his capture or his killing is our top priority," US civil administrator Paul Bremer said on Saturday.
"We believe that Saddam is alive, is in Iraq, and his capture or his killing is our top priority," Bremer told a news conference here.
"We stil have no clear indication if Saddam himself is behind these attacks," Bremer said in a reference to the upsurge of bombings and killings.
"As I said, there is some sign of more control over the attacks on a general and regional level."
Bremer said it was important to capture or kill the deposed Iraqi leader to "draw down a curtain once and for all on the dream that Saddam and his killers are going to come back."
Saddam's "days are finished in Iraq and we want to make that very clear," he said.
