Uday Hussein
Washington, D.C. - Congressman Todd Akin has issued the following statement regarding the report that the sons of Saddam Hussein have been killed in a raid by the 101st Airborne.
“The demise of Qusay and Uday is a milestone in the liberation of the Iraqi people who had long been oppressed by Hussein and his sons.
“The 101st Airborne Division has delivered a major victory, one which clearly underscores the fact that Saddam’s regime of terror is truly defeated and has significant meaning to those who had suffered under its despotic rule.
