Saddam‘s daughter shilling ‘Butcher of Baghdad’ baubles

The daughter of former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein is peddling baubles inspired by the erstwhile "Butcher of Baghdad."

Raghad Saddam Hussein, 46, an ISIS supporter known as "Little Saddam" for her resemblance to her despot dad, has gone into the jewelry business, the Daily Mail reported.

She enjoys an extravagant lifestyle in Jordan and is known to pay for Gucci handbags and Sergio Rossi boots in cash with US dollars, the paper reported.

Among her precious collections sold in Amman are pieces inspired by Saddam and the husband he had murdered – including a $1,500 pendant shaped like Iraq, the report said.

She designed a $2,000 turquoise bracelet to match one her father gave her.

"My dad Saddam Hussein gave me this turquoise many years ago and I kept it safe until three years ago," she said in a sales brochure. "I chose to place it in this bracelet and create a similar design for those who like this design and want to keep it."

Raghad also created a pair of earrings based on a ring her late husband, Hussein Kamel al-Majid, gave her.

"I designed this earing for one of my daughters, and it was taken from a ring that my late husband Hussein gave me long time ago," she said. "I decided to change to from a ring to an earring and then I created this design for those who like its shape."

Raghad, Saddam's oldest daughter, married Hussein in 1983 when he headed Saddam's Republican Guard. They had five children.

She divorced Hussein days before Saddam had him killed in 1996 after promising to forgive him for defecting the year before.

Raghad strongly defended her dad after his capture in December 2003 at the hands of US troops.

When she learned about his imminent execution, she was apparently sitting in an Amman beauty parlor waiting for a hot stone scrub.

Raghad also has been linked to terrorism and expressed support for ISIS. Veterans of Saddam's Baathist party are said to see the group's militants as allies and also have helped them take control of towns in northern Iraq.

Raghad was overjoyed when militants last year captured Tikrit, her dad's hometown. She told Jordanian newspaper Al-Quds: "These are victories of my father's fighters and my uncle Izzat Al-Douri."
