Online customers were amused when they passed by an advertisement that offered them to purchase former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein at a bargain price of $20.
The unusual ad was put out by wish store. Several people shared the screenshots of that perticular ad for the deceased leader on social media platform.
“Enjoy much cheaper items sold by wish. don’t miss 60-80% off store prices,” the add was captioned.
The post of the screenshots of “Saddam Hussein” on the tweeter went viral and its treanding.
One user asked,” who will buy Saddam Hussein for $20?” Another wrote, “can’t believe the U.S. spent all that time going after Saddam Hussein when they could have ordered him off wish for $20.”

Interestingly, ” more than ten” people have purchased the item. The advert is actually a listing for a “fine art print ” of Hussein. The two size of the print are available.
The discription of the item reads,” former Iraqi leader saddam Hussein following his capture was reproduced on premium Heavy stock paper which captures all the vivid colors and details of the originals.”
