Quote:
In the news last night, there was an interview with an Arab BBC reporter who was life on the spot, and he said there were people shooting in the air with their AK 47's. NOTE... shooting in the air... NOT shooting at Americans.

I'm a bit confused here.
Most Iraqi's hated Saddam and Sons (and their dictatorship) with as much venom as they hate the US/UK army (and their occupation). So it's clear why they were celebrating.
But I have no idea why anyone else is celebrating. All that has been achieved in this mindless act of violence was:
1. The turning of two sadists that were universally hated into Martyrs.
2. The end of any chance of closure for the families of the victims - where they could see justice being done in an *Iraqi* court of law
3. The death of an innocent 14 year old child whose 'crime' was to have the wrong father and grandfather...
