Hopefully This will Boost Morale Now we just have to find Saddam and take care of him! A major strike at Hussein's inner circle. Deaths of two "most-wanted" sons will be a major morale boost to US troops and Iraqis. WASHINGTON [^]The deaths of Saddam Hussein's two "most-wanted" sons in an attack by US forces Tuesday brings a major morale boost both to US troops and to Iraqis beginning to doubt that the old regime was gone for good. The US military said Tuesday it had confirmed that Mr. Hussein's two sons, Qusay and Uday, had been killed in a fierce gun battle in the northern city of Mosul. US forces raided a villa in the city after receiving a "walk-in" tip that the two sons were holed up there, said Lt. Gen. Ricardo Sanchez at a news conference in Baghdad. He added that the US expected to pay the $15 million reward offered for information leading to the death or capture of each of Hussein's sons.
