Are we close to getting Hussein?
Hussien's two sons were killed today in a gun fight in Mosul.

Wasn't there a tape release a few days ago, of Hussein calling for a "holy war" against America?

ABC's Primetime...
At 10:00 eastern/pacific ABC's Primetime is having a special on about Saddam Hussein's sons. Not sure if it's just what happened today or if it will go over their life and everything too. Of course Nightline will have more on about them at 11:30 eastern/pacific.
I just thought I'd post that so if anyone ifs interested in watching it - they would know.

This is funny, I wanted to publicly say YEA! the two evil sons are gone, but I hated to drag up the Iraq thread again. I'm glad the sons were killed (I hope it's true!) ..I've read so many horrible things about those two men. There should be a little more peace in the world with those two sadistic murderers gone. Ugh!

Ugh, from what I've heard, those two were world-class creeps.
I saw a good (but somber) political cartoon the other day - two men on either side of a gap filled with bodies of tortured, dead Iraqis - the first one (a bureaucrat) says "so where's the evidence of weapons of mass destruction?!?!". The second one, a soldier, doesn't answer - he is just looking in horror at the bodies, which are labelled "evidence of mass destruction" ....

Oh, yeah, I saw a report on their deaths today on TV. I never really gave it much thought, but now that I think about it, if Hussein's sons were close together, maybe Hussein himself won't be far behind. I only hope he's caught before he gets himself back together.

I saw the reports of the Sons deaths yesterday, I have to admit, I felt all warm and toasty inside But seriously, it does infact mean that we are close.
The only thing that worries me is the retaliatory acts of the bands of 'loyal' Baathist Iraqi's.

This'll be the hard part now. He'll have all of Iraq protecting him. No division of forces or anything. I'm confident we'll get him, but he won't go down easy.

I don't get the impression that all of Iraq is protecting Sadam Hussain. I get the impression, from what I've seen on CNN, that very few are still loyal to him, that most people wanted him gone in the first place.

Yeah, Ruinel is right. Most of the Iraqis hate Saddam. (Out of Topic: Did you knew one of my grandparents knew his nanny? seriously! They are from Iraq) I daresay It'll be hard as much as finding Bin Ladden is. Although the Iraqi people hate him, they don't know where he is. He probably had a hiding place in Iraq, to protect him in these kinda cases.

What was odd was that the 2 sons were found in an area believed to be non-sympathizers of Hussain and his sons. So, no one was looking for any of them there. It was a tip that lead the coalition forces to where the sons were in hiding.
Rad: that was a interesting bit of information... to be related to someone who knew someone who worked for someone. Actually, joking aside, it makes you realize what a small world we live in. Well, you know where Sadam Hussain will be found, don't you? In the last place they look. |
