...executions for far less serious transgressions. Hussein Kamel knew all this, but if he had any remaining uncertainty about his father-in-law's attitude toward him, it should have been dispelled by Iraq's state-controlled media, which branded him a thief, a coward, a spy and a "traitor dwarf." All of which provokes the question, Why in the world did he go back...

Sadat was celebrated as a hero in the West but remained largely unpopular at home and was labeled a traitor all over the Arab world.
