Two down and two to go

From what I've read, he'll probably be glad that the US army got to them first instead of himself; and even more joyeous that both of his sons were killed, since they probably knew where their father's hiding place is.

Then how come the Shiias and the Kurds aren't taking up arms and taking down every american they're finding?

Almost all the attacks on American troops have been happening near Baghdad, Tikrit, and Mosul; All Sunni centers, all baath controled, and all places where Saddam's rule weren't as harsh than in Kurdistan or Basra.

Where do you get “they” from? I was speaking on one person, the grandson of Saddam, who was well on his way to becoming just like dad and granddad. He is from a rich family, why wasn’t he off in Europe at some ritzy boarding school? IMHO it was because his life’s work was going to be the killing and abuse of the average people of Iraq. And the best place to learn that trade was from a pampered ******* like his dad. Tell me something. Did either of Saddam’s sons serve during the war with Iran? Perhaps lead men in the field, or fly strike missions into Iranian air space? Perhaps they were leading tank columns during the gulf war. Or perhaps they were taking advantage of their countrymen; killing people that didn’t show the proper respect, or were born into the wrong family. Taking and committing rape against the daughters of their neighbors, who dared not complain. And for this they were rewarded with high positions within the government. With role models like that, I personally have no doubt that the 14 year old in question was a little savage bastard, and beyond redemption in this life. Had he any inclination towards honor, he would have turned his AK on his father and uncle.

Unfortunately, in many parts of the world, that 14 year old is now probably a martyr and a few thousand more potential terrorists are moving to 'the dark side'.
