AP) - The U.S. military released graphic after-death photographs Thursday showing the heavily bearded faces of Saddam Hussein's feared sons, Odai and Qusai, in an effort to prove to Iraqis they were killed in a fierce gunbattle this week. Two of the photos showed what appeared to be Odai, the older brother, with a severely bloodied face.

The corpse of who the U.S. Central Command says is Qusay, the younger son of Saddam Hussein , is seen in this picture released by the U.S. military authorities in Baghdad, 24 July, 2003. The U.S. military issued photographs of what is says are the bodies of Saddam Hussein's sons Uday and Qusay in an effort to prove to skeptical Iraqis that the feared brothers had been killed on Tuesday when 200 U.S. troops attacked their hideout in Mosul with helicopters, grenades, heavy machineguns and anti-tank missiles.

I saw them and couldn't tell anything about them. I believe that the bodies are Uday and Qusay but I couldn't identify them from these shots. Especially Uday...the head is so swollen it could be anybody.

If President Bush says it's them, that's good enough for me.

I'm skeptical that the pro-Saddamites will accept these phots as definitive.

Not that I doubt it's them, but really, these pictures could be of almost any Arab male in his thirties/early forties.

I hope they will release new photos after they have cleaned and -- one hopes -- shaved the faces. Although I'm sure shaving the faces will be taken as an unforgiveable insult to the Arab world.

CNN is showing the pictures with the caveat that the US "claims" that these are Queequod and Queasy. Not that they are, but that that we CLAIM they are. They really can't help themselves.

All you have to do is right-click the image, go to Properties, copy the link with your left-mouse button, right-click again and hit copy.

When you're ready to post the image use IMG SRC=" (PASTE THE LINK HERE)" /IMG. Don't forget the < and >.

First, type this:

< img src = "

...only leave out the space between < and img and only one space after IMG, no space after SRC, no space after =

Then, put the website address of the picture you want to post

then immediately after the website address of the picture, type this:

">
