A group loyal to deposed Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein vowed in a videotape aired on an Arab television network on Thursday to avenge the killing of his sons.
“We pledge to you Iraqi people that we will continue in the jihad against the infidels. The killing of Uday and Qusay will be avenged,” said a masked man claiming to be from Saddam Fedayeen on the tape carried by Al Arabiya.
The tape showed a group of masked men holding automatic rifles in a room with walls covered by photographs of Saddam and his sons.
“The killing of Uday and Qusay will not decrease the attacks against the Americans but rather increase them,” the speaker said.
Translation: blah, blah, blah, jihad, blah, blah, blah.
Whatever, asshats. We’ve got more bullets than you have bodies, so step right up. Rumor has it that you’ve got a score of virgins waiting for you in heaven. We’d love to help you find out if that’s true.
