US releases pictures of Saddam's sons' bodies

The US government has released photographs of what it claims are Saddam Hussein's dead sons.

It is their bid to convince sceptical Iraqi's they had not survived the Mosul gun battle.

The US says the pictures show the upper body and head of Uday, 39, and two of Qusay, 37.

One of the photos apparently shows Uday with a thick beard and severely bruised face.

Also released were photographs of the brothers when they were alive and X-rays used to help identify Uday.

I hope the photos you posted will NOT be pulled.

They're dead. They're awfully hairy, yes?

Even though this is incomprehensible to liberals, let it be said.

Less terrorists = less terrorism.

Hard to tell who these photos are of. Clean them up, shave them, then try again.

A ten-year-old with a Kodak Instamatic could take better pictures than what I've seen so far.

In more enlightened times, we fixed the heads of our dead enemies on pikes mounted at the city gates.

His dental comparrison was only 90% due to dammage to the teeth, so it could be a hole.

Anything you want to do with these?

Place them atop of pile of dung?

How about a greeting card from Hell for their daddy, provided he wasn't already there to welcome them?

Well, it's incomprehensible to those who care about grammar.

Fewer terrorists = less terrorism.

Dear Mr. Pikes

You should be made aware that someone is usurping your specialty. The guild has been notified.
