Hossam Shaltout, a former political adviser to Saddam Hussein's son, said today that before the U.S. invasion of Iraq in March of 2003, Saddam expressed his intent to yield to all American demands, but that the Bush administration refused his offers.

Probably noteworthy that this guy almost certainly has a political axe to grind, given that he claims he was beaten by American soldiers while in prison. Interesting read nevertheless.
