Uday and Qusay with evidence to show they were alive after today.

What would that little bit of news do to this administration?

1. Unfortunately it will be played only on Al-Jazeera
and maybe BBC and some Canadian stations. Our news would show thirty seconds at about 3 or 4 in the morning. End of coverage.

Pardon me. I just thought you might like to put your money where your mouth is. "My bad", as the young people say.

P.S. What makes you so sure I'm a Mr.?

6. Actually, hasn't only Saddam appeared on video?
even of they're still alive they may not end up on tape.

8. they'll wait until after the $30 million reward is distributed....
that's money needed for more attacks on OUR soldiers...like the $43 million that bush* gave to Osama's Taliban in May 2001, to fund the 09/11/2001 attacks...

link to bush* faustian deal with the Taliban, May 2001
http://www.robertscheer.com/1_natcolumn/01_columns/052201.htm


my bet is that the video comes out AFTER the $30 million is distributed...wonder how long that will take, and who gets the money ??? initial reports were that saddam's cousin turned them in...how convenient...

9. Good point
But I satnd by my prediction because if they don't get the reward money distrbuted quickly with multiple photo ops, nobody's ever going to belive their rewards again.

10. Happened while ago?
I can see how the sons could have been killed a couple of months ago and the administration was just waiting for a time to use this information to their best advantage.

14. Haven't the sons been killed like three times since March?
Hussein has been killed numerous times, IIRC.

so has Osama bin Forgotten.

Every time, there's tapes to show they're alive.

Based upon the past history of this administration, I'm not buying this as anything more than a diversionary lie.

15. I heard there was DNA evidence that confirmed their death
I am undecided whether this is a fabricated story, who knows? anythings possible.

16. I have seen no indication that a DNA test has alrteadyt been performed
It's possible they were killed, however, I am more inclined to disbelieve anything put out by this administration than to believe it. in the past they have lied when the truth would have served them better.

I think they're just pathological liars.

18. Probably too soon for DNA
It would take some time for the tests, assuming they have known samples from the sons.

The problem will not be the DNA testing but the credibility of the people collecting the samples.

20. Likely to be tapes, whether they are dead or alive.
-Somebody- is going to make a tape.

Many in Iraq will believe it.

21. It will never be shown here
If it does manage to make it into mainstream news for 30 seconds, it will be blamed on faulty intelligence
