Oh come on, what the hell kind of photos are those? A 10 year old with a $100 digital camera can do better then that. Out of all of our expensive hardware and technlogoy no one has a camera built in the last 20 years which features "flash" ? Not that I don't want to believe those two guys are dead- I HOPE they are... but this is ridiculous. Is this the quality of evidence we should come to expect from the Pentagon?

Well, given the technology Iraq has rite now, 20 bucks says no Iraqi has ever heard of our friend Mr. Photoshop. So, we claim anything we want, and have picture "proof" as well! How bout this for a headline:

"Saddam Hussein is actually MRS Saddam Hussein, and we have the pictures to prove it!"

Those are screen caps from CNN on TV. If you're watching TV, they are much clearer, and CNN is now even showing different ones.

something I found odd
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/3093637.stm

The photograph of Uday shows a similarly bearded man with a scar or discolouration running along his face - which might support some coalition claims that he tried to take his own life or did take his own life rather than be captured.

The photos were released on a CD-Rom that included two pictures of each brother, plus images of them when they were alive and X-ray slides.

The US has historically been reluctant to release photos of people killed in combat.

Didn't take long for a conspiracy theorist to jump in.

You're on the same boat if you believe everything you are told without questioning.

I seen some of the other photos and they are more convincing, but I still dont fully buy it yet: I'm very suspicous at why they would have such horrible quality photos when they are trying to prove something so important.

OK Let's just debunk the whole "faking it" theory right now with a logical arguement. Let's assaume Uday and Quasay are still alive and the US is faking it. What would I do if I was one of the wonder twins to put huge egg on the face of the US? How about a polaroid with a newspaper dated 7/24/03. Hand it to a Baath buddy to be sent off to al-jazeera.

They are dead. Don't be idiots. The US isn't playing that game...if they were, WMD evidence would have already been planted, and this would have been done long ago.

I don't believe everything I'm told without questioning. But I am intelligent enough to note a logical gap about a mile wide in assuming conspiracy.

Oh wait maybe they actually turned themselves in, and the US agreed to put them in the witness protection program, and once they interview them, they are going to be plumbers in New Jersey with different identities. You watch too many movies...

Lets just get one thing straight. I am not claiming that there is/isnt a conspiracy. Frankly, I could really care less if they were dead/alive. I was merely stating that it would be hella funny if we showed the Iraqi people that Saddam really was a transvestite.

This is for different reasons and displayed under reluctance. You should know better.

For fvck's sake, these weren't released for me and you to see - they were released for the Iraqi public to see. Do you not get that?
