Uday’s executioner: feeding rivals to lions
2003-07-27
Edited for brevity.
A chief executioner to one of Saddam’s sons has revealed how he helped drag two victims into a cage to be devoured by lions. The executioner said that he was ordered to seize two 19-year-old students and take them to a farm of Uday Hussein, Saddam’s oldest son who was killed by American forces last week. As soon as they arrived the students were dragged to a cage containing the lions and forced inside. “I saw the head of the first student literally come off his body with the first bite,” he said. He then had to stand and watch the animals devour the two young men: “By the time they were finished there was little left but for the bones and bits and pieces of unwanted flesh.” He was told later that the two young men “had competed with Uday where some young ladies were concerned”.
More depravity detailed in the full story.

#2  Ha! I knew it. It was all about wymyns. No wonder. It all makes sense to me now... the torture? Ha! Whaddya think he was going through. Others getting the wymyns, when he had none. Now that's torture, baby. The soccer teams and the other athletes? He was crippled from an assassination attempt. Imagine how he felt - watching them... and them, with their easy swagger and confidence - taking more and more of the wymyns! Ha! He just needed some counseling, a friend he could open up to. So sad. I bet he cried himself to sleep at night. We should forgive him cuz that's the way the myns are wired - can't help themselves. Uday! Oh Uuuuuday! Alleee, alleee in freeee!

#1  Found this part interesting:
The Americans say they have captured several of Saddam’s bodyguards, and yesterday it emerged that they believed they had come close to seizing the former Iraqi leader in Mosul shortly after the deaths of his sons last Tuesday.

According to military sources, intelligence intercepted a single satellite phone signal known to belong to Saddam during the bombardment of the building where Uday and Qusay were trapped.

Soldiers searched the nearby villa from which the call was made but Saddam was not there. US officers said the intercept was highly accurate, and they were convinced he had been hiding in the building. Yesterday they said they believed he was still in Mosul.
