According to ABC News, Abid Hamid Mahmud al-Tikriti, Saddam's most trusted adviser and the ace of diamonds, whom we have in custody, has positively identified the bodies as Uday and Qusay.

Ironically it was their own people that turned Uday and his brother in..If it is true...Mosul, ancient Nineveh, is LOADED with Kurds.
I would not be surprised if they turned them in!

Ninevah...
My kids have a story book on Ninevah/Jonah, and it is irritatingly sing-songy, so I always think of it when I hear Ninevah.

OT: Do we allow a proper Moose-limb funeral and burial? Do we want a site for Baathist accolytes to return too?
What was done with the bodies of the NAZIs that were convicted and executed in Nuremburg? Cremation and secret disposal?

From this article in the Times (UK):
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,1-753543,00.html "Witnesses said that the compound, which is badly damaged, belonged to Saddam's cousin Sheikh Zeidan. Relatives of the Sheikh have said that he informed US forces that Saddam?s sons, a 14-year-old grandson and a bodyguard had taken refuge in his house because he wanted to get rid of them. "
Well! That's one way to get rid of unwanted houseguests! :-o

From ABC's website:
The captured "ace of diamonds" in the deck of most-wanted, visually identified the bodies of Saddam Hussein's sons, ABCNEWS has learned. Meanwhile, U.S. officials are awaiting DNA test results.
Hallelujah! And thanks for your initial mention.
