ISLAM ONLINE: Iraqis Irked By, Jubilant At Death of Qusay, Uday
Iraqis Irked By, Jubilant At Death of Qusay, Uday

By Aws al-Sharqi, Sobhi Hadad IOL Correspondents

BAGHDAD, July 23 (IslamOnline.net) – The Iraqi people received the American confirmed killing of ousted Iraqi president's sons, Qusay and Uday, with mixed feelings, as some took to the streets protesting the U.S. move, while others fired shots in the air in jubilation.

U.S. military officials on the ground said they had identified the bodied of Qusay and Uday who were reportedly killed in an attack on a house at al-Falah district in the northern Iraqi city of Mosul on Tuesday, July 22.

"Iraqis in Mosul are extremely angry by the U.S. move," Mohammad Tawfik, a journalist, told IslamOnline.net over the phone.

He added that thousands of Iraqis took to the streets of the northern Iraqi city chanting anti-U.S. slogans and calling for increased resistance attacks against the occupation troops.
