I got my newsweek this week, and was not suprised that the two sons of Sadam were on the cover. Disgusted by the images on the first page of the article, I coverd them up and started reading.
NOw, to say that Newsweek is biased, is a stretch as there was multiple articles afterward that were pro-environment and anit-bush.. especially the one on the coverup on the pages in the FBI 9/11 report.
However, I could not help but feel very happy about the Qusay and Uday article.
First of all, Uday (who raped and beat soo many women) begged and pleaded as the US headed to Baghdad for his body guards (whom he beat constantly) to help him. Apparently none would. They told him to take a hike....Also was in the article there that they were given a chance from the Military to come out alive, and passed on it.
Either way, I was torn between not liking the death of anyone, and realizing the HIGH PRICE that's been paid for the loss of just these two monsters, and the glee I felt to read that they were very alone, nooone would help/support them, and in their final hours were in the corner of the house of the man who ratted them out, probably wondering what got them there.
I'm sure it didn't cross their minds that being rapists/murderers/torturers/dictators is what got them in that lonely, helpless place.. facing death.. like so many of their torturee's were.
All I have to say is this: What comes around... goes around... and this is positive proof.
good riddence, U and Q... you wont be missed..
I dont like what the Bu*h admin is doing, but was happy to see finally some positive results amongst all the bad.
