Well, Saddam loved those two boys dearly. I wonder what he's gonna do now?

Well, at least the brutes were better than Hitler- they died in a firefight rather than pussying out and taking their own lives. Wonder if Saddam has the cojones?

This should hopefully destroy the "can't catch me" mythos that Saddam has been building around himself.

I'm surprised the brothers were even found together- by all reports, they did not like each other- but I suppose when the going gets tough, even the most twisted family comes together. It's sad really. You see some pictures from the 70s and such and they look so normal ... (well, apart from Qusay being in a military uniform already).

Saddam might have a secret bunker or something, or maybe he's going from safe house to safe house. Personally, I doubt their deaths, or Saddam's, will have any effect on the insurgents.

Good riddance to the murderous fucks. No more than they deserved.

You're right. The US soldiers are ineligable for the bounty, anyway, since the money was for information.

It was stated that the information came from a walk in informant and that they'd be the one to get the money.

Christ, some of those hatfuckers look ready to hold a wake for Uday and Qusay. I guess brutal murderers, rapists, and general psychopaths deserve sympathy when they're taken out by Big Bad Bush.

While I have no doubt that goings-on in the DU are as demented as usual(this has been my official stance ever since I saw the American occupation force being seriously compared to the Nazi occupation of France), I can't seem to find those who are pining for Qusay and Uday. Links?

Ask and ye shall recieve:

McCain

Seems Howard Dean complained about Uday and Qusay biting it, saying the ends didn't justify the means. McCain called him on it, and the DU faithful react predictably.

CBS report

CBS reports the killing may actually have violated the executive order against assasination. DU reacts by calling the killing reprehensible, complaining that the 101st Airborne couldn't capture the two after a six hour firefight, and implying that the Bush adminstration killed Paul Wellstone. I couldn't make this shit up, folks.

Heroes

Certain Iraqis are saying the Hussein boys died heroes. DU denziens agree. Be sure to check IndianaGreen who says the boys "didn't do anything", calls Bush a muderous psychopath, gravely predicts Bush will use nuclear weapons in "one of his preemptive wars", and promises to move to Canada if Bush is reelected. Indana will undoubtedly be a better place if he does so, but I digress.

Oh, they also think the killings were faked.

I'm sure there's more, but I've got better ways of raising my blood pressure than reading through this shit.

CNN, and no doubt other news channels, are showing pictures of the bodies, released minutes ago.

You'd think that innocents had been massacred the way people are going on in those links. Some human trash just got took out, nothing more, nothing less.

When they stormed the house, Unday's kid bought it when he tried to hold off the 101st with an AK. Wonder what we'd have done with a 16 year-old war criminal?

Incidentally, they IDed Uday at the scene because he has a titanium femur. Kinda difinitive, unless his doubles did too...

HemlockGrey · Post by **HemlockGrey** » 2003-07-24 06:22pm

Frankly, anybody who attempts to seriously hold off the 101st airborne with an AK-47 is begging for death.

Good riddance to bad garbage. Naturally the DU will suck up to any enemy of the United States. I wish they'd go over there and volunteer to fight for Saddam-- put their money where their mouths are and reap a few Darwin Awards at the same time.

*Tch!*

Captain Chewbacca is back. Je-zus H. fucking Chee-rist; here I was thinking you were gone. Fuck.

I told you I was going on vacation. Don't worry, I'll not forget my pledge to Mike to be on my best behavior and never mention "the incident".
