Rumsfeld: Photographs of Qusay and Uday Will Be Released

23 Jul 2003, 23:07 UTC
U.S. Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld says the United States will release photographs of the bodies of Saddam Hussein's sons Qusay and Uday to prove they are dead.
Mr. Rumsfeld gave no timeframe for the release, but said Wednesday the photographs would soon be made available.
Earlier Wednesday, the top U.S. ground commander in Iraq, General Ricardo Sanchez said four former Iraqi officials had identified Qusay and Uday's bodies. The two were killed in a Tuesday U.S. military operation in the city of Mosul.
General Sanchez also said dental records for Qusay were a perfect match, and they were a 90 percent match for Uday, whose teeth had been damaged. Both Hussein brothers inspired fear in Iraqis. Qusay headed the country's security apparatus and was considered Saddam's likely successor. Uday led the Fedayeen militia and was known for ordering the torture and killing of thousands of people.
General Sanchez also announced that U.S. forces have captured the former commander of Iraq's Special Republican Guard, Barzan Abd al-Ghafur Sulayman Majid.
Also Wednesday, an Arabic-language television station broadcast another audio tape purportedly recorded by Saddam Hussein. Al-Arabiya television says the tape was recorded on July 20th -- two days before the Mosul operation.
There was no immediate way to confirm the tape's authenticity.

I guess since they were done in - a do rag is appropriate.
I sure would not be counting on seeing the activity decrease. I pray the soldiers are more alert now. The sympathizers will be coming out in force.

Perhaps a world wide tour is in order, starting in North Korea. Exactly!

What do you suppose was in Jerry Parks/Vince Foster file (that Hillary commissioned and that brought about their death)....talk about shooting the messenger? My guess is Hillary and Bubba Al Queda links via the Whitewater bank?..financed by the Mena money laundry.
Rule of thumb...if they show us the pictures, they must be fake.
