Uday and Qusay: an obituary
Saddam Hussein's sons, Uday and Qusay, were monsters even by the gruesome standards of Iraq.

The two hated figures are thought to have been killed when US forces attacked their hideout in Mosul on Tuesday.
Uday, who commanded the Fedayeen militia, was ranked "ace of hearts" in the US army's pack of cards of 55 most wanted Iraqis, while Qusay was "ace of clubs".

Brutal sadist
Uday was perhaps the most hated figure in Iraq and narrowly escaped a 1996 assassination bid.
He was a sadist with a taste for cruelty so extreme that even his father was forced to acknowledge he would not be a worthy heir.
But although Uday symbolised the brutality of the Iraqi regime, his powers were severely curtailed.
Although he retained the privileges of the son of a dictator, he was shunted from the real centres of power by his quieter, younger brother Qusay.
It was not the life that Uday had intended. Of Saddam's two sons, he was the flamboyant one with a penchant for fast cars and loud and drunken parties, as well as murder, rape and torture.

...Snip...

The quieter brother
Before the US-led war which toppled Saddam Hussein, younger son Qusay was the heir apparent to the Iraqi strongman's throne.
Qusay was Saddam's main strategist during the war.
