Pictures? Heck with pictures, gotta have the body. Only by DNA tests proving its him will the legend and fear control be done with. Otherwise, he'll be like Osama Bin Laden. The True Believers will never be satisfied and in fact will raise him to a martyr so the terrorism will continue.

You're right Dave; only forensic proof that he and his two sons are dead will eliminate the "legend" status in the minds of his die-hard followers.

DNA test and photos need to be sure....would prefer they catch him alive so he can stand up to a military trial

The men made the father watch as they set his son alight with petrol.<br><br>``The boy`s screams pierced the relative calm that had fallen on the city in the last few days.``<br><br>The women told Vanessa the attacks had taken place over the past two weeks.<br><br>Since the outbreak of war 18 days ago (18 days on Sun) leaders of the Ba`ath party are alleged to have targeted several hundred families who were known to be openly against Saddam.<br><br>In Az Zubayr, just 6 miles south west of Basra, Iraqi extremists loyal to the evil tyrant have opened fire on innocent civilians collecting vital water from British troops.<br><br>The president`s men, hiding in a disused school, followed a number of locals after they had picked up aid in the town centre.<br><br>Once out of sight of the coalition forces they began indiscriminately shooting at those who had accepted help.<br><br>One of those targeted, Samir Adjwah, (PICTURED), last night expressed his relief at managing to survive the attack.<br><br>Speaking from his hospital bed the 27-year-old driver said: ``I had just collected my water when as I walked home a car pulled up alongside of me. Two men were sat in the front and one in the back.<br><br>``I thought when they pulled up they were asking for directions as the car was not local to the area, but as they got close the man in the back pulled out a pistol and fired two shots.<br><br>``The first destroyed my water can but the second hit me in the left side of my stomach.<br><br>``I collapsed to the ground and as I did they shouted `Never betray Saddam. Keep away from those soldiers`.``<br><br>Samir`s brother Adweh, 31, said not all those targeted by the militia were as fortunate.<br><br>Stood next to his brother`s bed he said: ``When I found Samir he was just yards from our house but bleeding heavily onto the floor.

Along the way were saw several other people tending to others who had been shot.<br><br>``I understand two have since died.``<br><br>Just makes you sick. How can ANYONE do this to another person????<br><br>DW<br>

We Americans have, for a long time, been lulled into a false sense of security and well being because we haven't had to deal with this kind of thing, but make no mistake - evil people are in the world and must be stood up to whenever and wherever they are found. This is the NATURE of evil, remember it well because we will have to fight it until the second coming of Christ. It is why we must remain EVER VIGILANT instead of complacent when faced with &quot;distasteful&quot; actions of some, and must instead reprimand it immediately to prevent it from progressing like the destructive social cancer that it is.

I hope plenty survive to point the finger!
