The history books of countries around the world record some inhuman tyrants, such as Nero, who murdered his mother and two wives, such as the King of Shang, who loved to burn cannons, or the "Bloody Mary" Queen Mary I of England, who brutally burned hundreds of pagans alive on the pillars of burning.
And modern Iraqis, who have lived for 39 years under the hands of an absurd and unscrupulous demon who takes pleasure in killing, is Uday, the eldest son of former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein.
"Demon Stand-in"
In 1964, Uday was born, and his father, Saddam Hussein, was imprisoned for an attempted assassination of the then Iraqi president.
The greatest use of Uday in infancy is to be carried by his mother, and when visiting his father, he hides important information in his urine and brings it out, and then passes it on to his companions outside.
Later, in the years when Saddam Hussein struggled to seize power in Iraq, the young Udai has been accompanying him to the ups and downs, and because of this, the eldest son who accompanied him through the difficult times has always had a special position in Saddam's heart.
However, what Saddam Hussein did not know was that it was precisely because of his preference that Udai was destroyed.
Unlike other normal children's childhoods, when Uday was six years old, he was learning live-fire shooting, and even his childhood entertainment was to watch prisoners being abused and executed on the execution ground.
Perhaps it is this living environment that makes Udai develop a cold-blooded and brutal character.
In his student days, Udai's bad behavior has been fully demonstrated.
Once, Udai asked a female teacher to introduce her beautiful classmates, and after the teacher refused, he also publicized his previous crime of bullying classmates.
Upon hearing the news, Uday was furious and not only had his bodyguards humiliate the female teacher, but also brutally murdered her husband and children.
As Saddam Hussein's power grew, the unruly Udai acted more and more inhumanely.
During the filming of the film "The Devil's Stand-in" based on Udai, the executioner who had stayed with Udai for six years was interviewed.
According to the former executioner's recollection, Uday once asked him to throw two nineteen-year-old college students into an iron cage in which several hungry lions who had not eaten for a long time were being held.
The former executioner watched with his own eyes at the head of a young man, bitten off by a mad lion. Then, in front of the executioner, two living people, little by little, were torn apart and devoured, becoming delicacies in the mouths of lions.
Only afterwards did the executioner know that the two young men had suffered this fate for only one reason, and that they had only spoken a few more words to the female companion of Udai.
With the graduation of university, Uday, who wielded real power, truly became a demon.
Bloody Arena
In order to train Udai, Saddam Hussein arranged for him to become the president of the Iraqi Olympic Committee, and this decision also made tens of thousands of Iraqi athletes fall prey to Udai's wanton killing.
In order to get the results that can prove themselves to their fathers as soon as possible, Udai forced the athletes to sign a "life and death certificate", and once the results did not meet the goals set by Udai in advance, the athletes would face various cruel punishments.
In the basement of the Iraqi Olympic Committee building, Uday built more than thirty cells, which are specially used to torture athletes.
There are not only extremely degrading punishments such as shaving off the athlete's head to urinate on his head, but also various punishments such as dragging the whole body, hitting the hips, and hitting the legs with a red-hot iron ruler.
Even in order to exercise the speed of athletes, Uday also directly released tigers to chase athletes, and some athletes who ran slightly slower became the trophy of tigers.
Under the inhumane management of Uday, Iraq, which in the 1980s was able to send a delegation of forty people to the Olympic Games, was able to assemble only four people in 2000.
In football, which Udai is interested in, his approach is even more brutal.
A legend in Iraqi football, AhmadDradi, who won the Asian Footballer of the Year, was ordered by Uday to whip his paws six times with a rattan for making six small mistakes in a game.
On another occasion, Radi was punished by Uday for practicing his shot against a cement wall because he was not in good form during the game, and he was allowed to rest after a full 15 hours.
Radi is not only the banner of Iraqi football, but also Udai's favorite athlete, even when he can't escape all kinds of punishment under Udai, let alone other athletes.
According to statistics, during Udai's presidency of the Iraqi Olympic Committee, more than forty athletes were forced to die.
Uday's penchant for killing gradually lost his sanity, and his claws began to reach out to high-ranking Iraqi officials, his relatives and siblings, and even his father Saddam Hussein.
Bloody Banquet
In 1988, Saddam's assistant Kamal introduced Saddam to a lover in order to curry favor with Saddam, and Saddam hussein alienated his wife.
Hearing of this, Udai called Kamal over, originally wanted to intimidate, so he scolded Kamal with wine, but did not expect that Kamal, who was Saddam's confidant, ignored Udai at all, and Udai was angry and directly shot Kamal.
Uday's behavior completely angered Saddam, and in order to punish Uday, he threw him in prison for several months, although the punishment was not very heavy, but it also kept Udai away from the center of power.
It was only at this time that the pleasures of power had completely distorted his humanity.
Seeing that his younger brother Kusai gradually took away his own power, Uday had an extremely bold conspiracy in mind.
In 1995, at a family gathering, Uday shot his uncle in a verbal altercation, and his uncle was seriously injured.
Not only that, but Uday also tried to shoot the husbands of the two sisters, hussein Kamal and Saddam Kamal, who were also the leaders of the Iraqi military industry, and the two people who were lucky enough to survive fled abroad with their families overnight.
Furious to learn of this, Saddam rushed to Uday's house overnight and burned down one of his garages, but fortunately Saddam did not continue, and because he was worried about his brother, he rushed to the hospital overnight.
Unbeknownst to Saddam, Uday had filled the second garage with weapons and was waiting for him to come to the door.
This massacre of loved ones did not stop the bloody road of Uday.
In 1996, Uday sent assassins to assassinate two brothers-in-law who were on the run, and he first pretended to contact them and released false news that Saddam Hussein was willing to protect them, but when the two brothers-in-law stepped into Iraq, what awaited them was a dark gun barrel.
In this way, the two brothers-in-law fell in a pool of blood, and the two sisters of Uday were also imprisoned.
In the same year, Uday finally waited for revenge against him.
When Uday was traveling in a car, his car was ambushed, and two bullets hit his spine with precision, which did not kill him, but also made his lower body incapacitated.
Unable to move, Uday naturally completely disqualified himself from becoming Saddam's successor, and his world was left with only women and various hedonistic activities.
Belated revenge
In 2003, when U.S. troops invaded Iraq, Uday finally woke up from his absurd life and began to flee.
However, the fugitive Uday still could not control his murderous nature, in order to threaten his bodyguards, he personally killed the bodyguard's family, and later, out of fear, killed a total of 15 bodyguards.
Of course, Uday, who did so, did not escape from the ascension as he wished.
When Uday fled to the private residence of his uncle Zaidan according to the prearranged route, he did not expect that it was this uncle who eventually killed him.
It turned out that at a cocktail party held by Zaidan, the drunken Uday took up a submachine gun and shot at the crowd, under the blood color, there were countless innocent guests who died the next moment after the cup and shadow were intertwined, and Zaidan was also shot in the calf by Udai and had to be amputated.
Afterwards, Uday directly admitted that it was his own deliberate act, because he believed that Zaidan often provoked his relationship with his father in front of Saddam.
At this moment, when Uday's life was completely in his own hands, Zaidan, who had struck from the old hatred, did not hesitate to sell Udai's information to the US military.
Therefore, after some stubborn resistance, Uday was finally crushed to pieces under the powerful artillery fire of the US army, ending his absurd and tyrannical life.
