...Killing of Uday...
...described in detail the military's hunt for Saddam and the killing of his two sons [WORLD, Aug. 11]. I was horrified by the description of the death of Uday Hussein, which said a soldier "pumped two bullets into Uday's mouth, to ensure his death." This was sickening. I reject the cold-blooded stalking and killing of anyone, even a murderous dictator and his family. This was an extreme example of American savagery. Why weren't Uday and Qusay brought to trial?

...Uday, a potential source of immense amounts of valuable information, could have been captured alive but instead was extrajudicially executed? This is a story that deserves more attention. ANDREW BRADBURY Santa...
...Killing of Uday "Hot on Saddam's Trail" described in graphic detail the military's hunt for Saddam Hussein and the killing of his two sons [Aug. 11]. I was horrified by the description of the death of Uday Hussein, which said a soldier "pumped two bullets into Uday's mouth, to ensure his death." This was sickening. I reject the cold-blooded stalking and killing of any human being cornered like an animal, even a murderous dictator and his family. This was an extreme example of American savagery and violence. Why weren't Uday and Qusay brought to trial...
...surprised that the troops who entered the house in Mosul and found Uday still alive summarily finished him off and also killed Qusay's son, 14. It is understandable that the two brothers would never have surrendered to the U.S. troops, but why kill Uday and Qusay's son when they were still alive? I'm sure most of the Iraqi people felt cheated that the brothers were not captured alive and brought to trial. Just think what Uday could have told them. Rina van Coller Pretoria, South Africa...
