Should they show these scum on TV?

As we all know by now, Saddams evil sons have died. The US plan to show their bodies or at least photo's of them on TV. Right or Wrong?
Bear in mind the furor over our lads' dead bodies on the roadside, and the need to quash any resistance factions still clinging to the belief Saddam will be victorious again.

Personally, I think it would be WRONG to show them , no matter how evil they were.

Personally I can't see how they can get away with simply killing them....surely the right thing to do would've been to enter them into some sort of legal proceedings to show the Iraqi people the correct way to build a country. But these are Yanks, they like killing...expect the movie to be out by Christmas.

I think if the Allied forces did show them, its for a properganda coup, to quash factions hell-bent on victory. I also think it would send Saddam to an early grave seeing his sons and heir apparents dead.
If they WERE to show them here, we shouldn't get snotty about showing pics of 'our boys' killed in action.
If its one rule for 'us' then it should be the same for 'them'

I agree with Lizard the Iraqi people will only believe that these bastards are dead if given proof i.e. pictures on TV. Only then perhaps once they know for sure that they will not come back to reek revenge on them who have turned against Sadam will they begin to restore their country to something like it was until Sadam came to power.

The Iraqi people in general are a decent lot. But the bloke who 'turned Uday and Qusay in' must be wondering how to spend HIS $30,000,000 reward money. I know I'm jealous!!!!!

Do you think he will stay in Iraq.....will the US wisk him away to some save place somewhere? Cos an Iraqi suddenly having a lot of money is bound to make people think "It was him!"

'It' was the cousin who harboured these 2 evil personified sons of Saddam, hence, 'no honour amongst Iraqi's' headline
