[The answer to that, warns Saddam's eldest son, is no.] If they come, ... Sept. 11, which they are crying over and see as a big thing, will be a real picnic for them, God willing.
"Uday Saddam Hussein al-Tikriti" was the eldest son of Saddam Hussein by his first wife, Sajida Talfah, and the brother of Qusay Hussein. Uday was seen, for several years, as the likely successor to father, but lost the place as heir apparent to Qusay due to injuries sustained in an assassination attempt, increasingly erratic behavior, and his troubled relationship with the family. His infamous excesses, including multiple allegations of rape, murder and torture (including of Iraqi Olympic athletes and keeping caged lions to feed with those who crossed him), he was several times imprisoned, exiled and received a token death sentence by his father's regime. Following the 2003 invasion of Iraq/United States-led invasion of Iraq in 2003, he was killed alongside his brother and nephew Mustapha by Task Force 121/Task Force 20 after a three-hour gunfight in Mosul.
