What ever happend with the DNA analyses of Saddam's boys?
Wasn't the Defense Department going to verify that those two bullet-riddled bodies were indeed the remains of Uday and Qusay Hussein? What ever happened with that? Hmmmm.

7. That's what I want to know.
After they spent hours and hours making-up those two corpses to look like the Brothers Hussein how would people respond if genetic testing did not identify them as the Husseins?

10. Would anyone trust the published results anyway?
It was more empty air being belched out of people with huge blo-holes.

Pentagon hopes DNA tests will prove bin Laden is dead


By Ben Fenton in Washington
(Filed: 11/02/2002)


WITH Osama bin Laden still outside the grasp of his pursuers, the American press indicated yesterday that faith in the Pentagon's performance was running short.

Leading newspapers questioned the way the hunt has been conducted and there was criticism of the growing number of Afghan civilian casualties from American bombs.

However, the Pentagon was pinning its hopes on the results from DNA tests on casualties of an attack by missiles from an unmanned Predator aircraft. Officials believe that one of the victims was bin Laden.

Reports at the end of last week concluded that the drone had hit civilian scrap metal collectors, but Pentagon officials said that one of the men in the group attacked could have been bin Laden.

Grainy film from the Predator showed a man who was considerably taller than the rest, accompanied by bodyguards. Bin Laden is about 6ft 4in tall. US investigators have already taken DNA samples from members of the al-Qa'eda leader's Saudi family.

Uday and Qusay sightings, just like Elvis sightings.
