I don't take joy in the death of another person. Even Tim McVeigh's death I did not like (but I thought it was necessary.)

I kind of associate Saddam to Hitler so I feel these deaths (Saddams sons) were as necessary as were any in human history.

Lets all pray we were right. Dont celebrate a human death but take comfort in the removal of a potentially deadly enemy.

Dushman maray tay khush na hooin
Sajna wee mar jana hu

This is a verse from a poem by Punjabi Sufi poet which says:
Dont celebrate the death of your enemy
for your loved ones will also die one day

Sadam is a dictator so, as Bush said, the US has the right to kill all his family.

Sorry, this just doesn't make sense.

Bush and Blair also said that there are weapons of mass distruction. Where are they? Did Saddam put them in his pocket and ran away with them?

as slapNUT said, it's really not on to glorify the death of individuals, and another flame war about iraq is not required, so i will close this thread. thanks.
