Go check, the news. Those two bastards finally met the end they richly deserved.

Here's a thought:
IIRC, there was $15 million out for helping to bring the two in, dead or alive.
Who here thinks that the money should go to the soldiers?

Hm. That's a good idea. I say let'em have the cash.

At the very least the troops should get a lot of free, cold, American beer.

It should go to the Iraqi that gave the US the tip.

I remember a clip on the Fox news channel earlier tonight where somebody senior over there said he looks forward to handing the reward over to the Iraqi that fingered them. If I remember right, I think he said 25 million, if not a higher number.

Yeah, but it's probably like the MASS lottery, he'll get like 60k a year after taxes for the next 40 years.

Small correction, during the day I heard the reward numbers again. The reward was 15 million per son and 25 million for Saddam. And it was a Muslem Cleric that fingered them. One pretty rich Cleric I'd say. How can anyone make him pay taxes when they don't EVEN HAVE a govt right now?
One of the radio news reports I heard mentioned that one of the them appeared to have shot himself at the end.

One would hope a clerical person uses the prize money to help people, not just himself.

From what I understand about true Islam (as opposed to the crap that Osama Bin Laden and his ilk pull) Helping those that are in need is very important .Seeing that a cleric turned them in you can rest assured that the needy in that part of Iraq will be getting a lot of aid
