Hoping to convince wary Iraqis that Saddam Hussein's sons had been killed, the US military on Thursday released photos of the corpses of Odai and Qusai Hussein. The two photos showed the men from the chest up. Both men, with heavy beards, had their eyes closed, the lids darkly bruised. In addition to the photos, the military released photos of Odai and Qusai when they were alive for comparison and X-rays of Odai.
美軍周四公布了烏代和庫(kù)賽的尸體照片，以向不肯輕易相信美軍的伊拉克人證實(shí)薩達(dá)姆侯賽因的兩個(gè)兒子確實(shí)已被美軍打死。照片顯示烏代和庫(kù)賽面朝上,兩人都留有濃密的胡須，閉著雙眼，眼部嚴(yán)重青腫。除了尸體照片，美軍同時(shí)還公布了用作比較的兩人生前的照片和能確認(rèn)烏代身份的Ｘ光片。

公布照片目的在于讓持有懷疑態(tài)度的伊拉克人確信恐怖的兄弟兩人已經(jīng)死亡。很多伊拉克人，尤其是薩達(dá)姆政權(quán)的支持者認(rèn)為烏代和庫(kù)賽兄弟的死亡消息是美軍捏造的，美軍此行目的是為了挫敗那些占領(lǐng)伊拉克的對(duì)抗者的士氣。

盡管阿拉伯地區(qū)有些人（他們認(rèn)為這些照片純屬捏造）指責(zé)美國(guó)公布假照片，但還有人認(rèn)為即使照片是真實(shí)的，美國(guó)的這種行為也違背了美國(guó)自己所提倡的某些標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。
