To Reuters, one man's facial reconstruction is another man's "dead chic".....

A U.S. military official said the bodies had undergone post-mortem "facial reconstruction".What the heck does that mean? Why the suicide comment? Reuters is getting weirder.

Why is the media making such a big deal of learning everything there is to know about these corpses? Who gives a crap, they are dead, and we must move on to crush the remaining killers.

Reuters Sees Baghdad Bodies, Look Like Saddam Sons
Fri July 25, 2003 07:41 AM ET BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Officials from the U.S.-led administration in Iraq showed independent journalists two corpses on Friday that Washington says it is sure are the bodies of Saddam Hussein's sons.
"I've been shown the bodies and they do appear to be those of Uday and Qusay," Reuters correspondent Andrew Marshall said from a makeshift, tented U.S. military morgue at Baghdad's international airport.
U.S. officials say they are certain that their troops killed the hated brothers in rocket strikes on a villa in the northern city of Mosul on Tuesday. It is keen to convince Iraqis they no longer have any reason to fear the former ruling family but many say they remain unconvinced by photographs.
U.S. officials said there was no evidence the sons committed suicide. A U.S. military official said the bodies had undergone post-mortem "facial reconstruction."

I get the impression that DNA matches are necessary before paying the 30 mil reward.

There were earlier reports that one of the sons had shot himself.

If this is true that? It's the stupidist thing I ever heard. Why the facial reconstruction? Now those who are looking for an excuse to doubt that their dead will run with this ball. Stupid, stupid, stupid in my opinion!!! Don't the people who are in charge have any common sense. The egg heads are in charge. I hope I'm wrong!!! But it looks like not!!!

"post-mortem "facial reconstruction".Does that mean they had to scrape half their faces off the wall and slap them back on with a little Krazy Glue?
