Who cares, says a mom whose son died in war (Saddam's Hanging)

President Bush called Saddam Hussein's execution a "milestone," but for Manhattan resident Sophy Haynes, it was merely another grim reminder of her soldier son's death.

"It's a nonevent to me," said Haynes, 78, whose son, Schuyler, 40, was killed last month in Baquba, Iraq, by a roadside bomb. "It has no meaning. We went into a place that I don't believe we had any business going into."

Another grieving mother, Fizoon Ashraf, of Brooklyn, didn't even hear about the execution until yesterday afternoon.

Her son, Rasheed Sahib, 22, died in Iraq in 2003.

"I don't even care what's going on," said Ashraf. "I lost my son, and that's all I can concentrate on."
