Hussein’s “Kids in the Hall” Reference

I just went to CNN.com and this caught my eye:

Hussein listened silently to the witness. But he lost his temper when one of the lawyers described Kurdish guerrillas, known here as peshmargas, as freedom fighters.

“You are agents of Iran and Zionism. We will crush your heads,” Hussein shouted.

The story does not report whether Saddam was squinting through his pinched-together thumb and index finger when he made this threat.

    Any word as to whether or not the lawyer held up his thumb and said “Nobody’s home”?
