(On the assumtion that they have had their breathing privileges revoked) They are now experencing a very different reality, and one that is nowhere near as pleasent as the one they lived in on this little ball of dirt.
The 9th circle works for me.

Just a few days ago, I head a report that Saddam was moving every 10 hours, staying with "friends and relatives." So who knows.

They can run but they can't hide and they can fight but they can die. A certain symmetry there.

They most likely killed the other two before they killed themselves.

Agree with most, disagree with this. I think the bodyguard killed the other three, and then himself. They're all dead, of course, but the order in which they died will mean a lot.

12:30PM Crude falls to two-week low on latest Iraq news by Myra P. Saefong

SAN FRANCISCO (CBS.MW) -- Crude futures are trading at their lowest level in two weeks on reports that two of Saddam Hussein's sons were killed in Iraq. The news eases the uncertainty related to Iraqi oil production. August crude is trading at $30.70 per barrel, down $1.08, and the September contract is logging a loss of $1.01 to $29.82. August unleaded gasoline are also lower by 3.78 cents at 89.4 cents a gallon. August heating oil is down 2.58 cents to 77 cents a gallon. Natural gas is following suit, with the August contract down 20.2 cents at $4.905 per million British thermal units.

Once we give the provisional Iraqi gov't the authority to dispense judgement in their own unique way, and as they get to the Baath Party members, Fedayeen and Saddam loyalists, the resulting punishment meted out will bring in such a flood of good intel that they will easily finish the "rooting out" job.

Amen.

I direct your attention to the left's whinning about the treatment of the enemy currently down at Gitmo, Cuba. They are not citizens either, yet the left cry for attorneys, their rights, etc. Need I say more?

I don't remember what it is, but there is a pretty historical fixed ration of crude oil prices to GNP growth (the lower the first goes, the higher the latter). Do you know what this relationship is?

GW can wait until early October 2004 to release those bodies if the CIA has frozen them or made jerky out of them.

The market will go out of sight, and whoever the rat candidate is will be lucky to win the DC votes.
