The FBI has interviewed some 10,000 Iraqis living in the United States (some citizens, some not) and obtained useful information on the location of at least 200 bunkers, weapons sites, communications facilities, Baath Party leaders and other significant targets.

Dental and medical records were used to confirm that two of the men killed in a Mosul raid on the 22nd were Saddam's sons Uday and Qsay. Captured members of Saddam's staff also identified the bodies. Pictures of the dead men are going to be released to try and stamp out rumors that Saddam's two sons were not killed and this was all another nefarious American plot to deceive the Iraqi people. These types of rumors seem to be more popular than reality among many Iraqis, which may explain some of the problems Iraq has had over the last few generations.
