It is now appearing as if this may have been a much more successful raid than just the death of Qusay and Udai. There are now reports coming out that documents identifying resistence leaders are being uncovered. To make this a real benefit we must move fast.

This is going to provide a boost for the morale of US forces, and give Bush a boost at home. Job well done. But this is by no means slowing down.

I was wrong. We didn't find out about their location from a captured prisioner we found out because one of their men sold them out to get the bounty. If Judas's gold worked here then maybe it will work for Saddam.

So many people were firing weapons into the air in celebration that reporters said it sounded like a major firefight.

Plato, the reward for Saddam is $25 million. Why don't you pack your bags, fly to Iraq, find out where Saddam is, report it, and become rich. Nothing at all is preventing you, or anyone else for that matter, from becoming rich with a little effort.

Of course, you also could end up dead. Which is why, I believe, Saddam and his sons have be able to remain at large until now. The person who turned in the two sons had loads of courage.

No doubt there was a load of courage involved or the prize would have been claimed before now. Didn't mean to imply anything different. Still wish I had known where they were. $30 mil for both. Obviously worth the cost.

This shows the US means business when it says it is there to liberate the Iraqi people. And now the Iraqi people know this too.

**** the liberals, the US was right about this.

Presumably it would be a war crime if they were gunned down in cold blood.

I'm not sure what the relevant statute is, but it would be a war crime. That's not to prejudge the issue, but members of the administration have made remarks along the lines of "killing them is what we want." That would be unjustifiable.

No they weren't. They were shot in a fire fight. Take your rabid anti americanism elsewhere.

Got spare money?

I kind of wish it was more like the movies

kind of cheesy shooting up a house with a helicopter

I was hoping for super secret stealth operation, then there could be a movie about it.

Yes, and it looked like an enormously reinforced bunker. There wasn't much damage to the main walls in the principle directions of fire, it looks like they penetrated the walls through a firing slot or the roof with high explosives and blasted it open from the inside out. It also looks like they took quite a few whacks at it before they hit upon the winning combination.

I may sound sadist, but I would dance on Qusay and Uday's graves.. and as it is an insult in the middle east, I would take my boots and start hitting their charred bodies with it.

101st isn't special forces.

Anyway, good riddance. Brings back the memories of an Onion article how terrorists find themselves in Islamic hell instead of being fed honey by white-clad virgins.

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

why anyone would want a virgin is beyond me.

Sure they are tight. But they aren't as skilled with their mouth. Unless muslims don't practice sodomy . But from what I heard about that one Saddam son, he had all kind of american porn.

And that thing with Bush's daughters pictures is kind of creepy.

If I was a father, I'd bomb the **** out of them as well. I think those pictures alone are justification of the war.

You americans never seize to amaze me these days. "Bush gets a nice boost"...for killing people!?
You really are cruel people. You love to torture, kill and destroy the lives of every "enemy of america" your adminstration tells you. I'm enemy of this kind of barbarism, so I guess I'm Enemy of America? I'm beginning to think the old cold war status quo was better than you barbaric cowboys running wild...

ACHTUNG! political disclaimer:
SH and his sons were cold blooded murderers and rapists. They deserve to be convicted for their crimes. Still they are humanbeings. But I hate it when Bush says theyre fighting against terrorism and for democracy and then commits terrorist acts around the world and goes murdering people...

in case you don't realize

we are still at war in Iraq

And these two people are waging war against our troops.

*sigh* some people just don't get it. They really have no clue what war really is.
