Saddam hangs.

[*SunShyne*]

Yup.

He's dead.

I, for one, will not lose sleep over this.

[r a m a z e]

lol at killing him on the weekend of eid

[*SunShyne*]

yeah, pretty spiteful eh?

I'm pretty sure some Christian was behind it

[r a m a z e]

you cant deny that saddam was a dick that deserved to die...but you have to admit that iraq was better off before.

[Webber]

if they had gone about invading Iraq differntly and had done it properly I wouldn't have a problem with any of this, but they didn't so fuck it all - i don't agree with the outcome

[LLaaUUrrYYn]

I dont believe in the death penalty. Nothing anyone can say will change my mind.

I have so much to say..but not enough energy to argue.

[nabs]

i dont agree on the death penalty, no matter what country.

[narc]

listen listen... Saddam Hussein isn't really dead, he's off somewhere in miami having plastic surgery and getting a new makeover by the Queer Eye for the Straight Guy team.

How do we really know that he's dead?

[Grapes]

Sweet.. Saddam is the new Elvis.

Gonna start seeing Saddams everywhere now.

yep considering he had at least 5 doubles that he had to disguise him. And the video tape of the execution doesn't actually show the hanging.... only the the rope being tied around his neck and then video footage of what is "supposed to be his body" after the execution....

WHAT are you saying?

Gone about invading Iraq differently?!

Are you referring to 1991 and the first Gulf War?

C'mon man.


As for the hanging of Saddam Hussein, it's well justified. For those of you that don't believe in the Death Penalty. You are aware that this Man is responisble for the deaths of almost 2,000,000 Iraqis, Kurds and Iranians right? Seems to me that having this Neck snapped by a Rope is the least we can do. We hung the Nazis for similar Crimes. He's full deserving of it.

So when are they going to hang bush then?

[-evil-duerr-]

he was good in south park, and for that - he will be remembered.

[decypher]

Saddam is no more deserving as any other leader. Iraq-Iran war and his actions against kurds are just used to cover that he was a pan-arabist attempting to gain political clout and hegemony in the region.

It's not really about what he did but about US manipulation of regional politics for national interest. The rhetoric about how bad he was and the championing call of international justice is just PR.

[Prissypants]

At what point does murder become justified? This whole thing got me thinking. It is easy to say he got what he deserved but what are the processes that allow someone like this to come into power in the first place and allow them to commit the crimes they do. Shouldn't we be attacking those things instead of killing one person and saying that the world is now a better place? It isn't. Saddam was in prison. He had no power left. He was impotent and they go and kill someone for what? Revenge? Some sort of validation? The things that put him into that situation still exist. As for the death penalty, unless you are ready to look into someone's eyes, take out a gun and kill a person who you think "deserves it" then seriously shut up. I know I couldn't kill someone in cold blood. When you react with violence you create more violence. How about getting mad at how this person was given the power to kill so many. Everyone, including myself, is guilty of letting situations like this occur. It is funny how easy it is to throw blame on an individual and use them as a scapegoat when it is people like you and I who allow them into a position where they are able to kill thousands of people. By killing Hussein, it has helped to give some people the illusion of security when in fact there will be more like him to come.

*Gets off of soapbox*

[narc]

electrocution, hanging, lethal injection, gas chamber are all costly wasted expenses.

just shoot the fucker with a big tommy gun, all said and done.

[Vitamin-X]

hmmm, they may have created a martyr here.
Definitely seems like a US run Kangaroo court anyway.
If the US didn't demand him dead the Shi'ites would have done it anyway.
There seemed to be an unnatural quickness to his execution.

As far as deserving it or not I can't really say.
Looking at the state of the country now and the kind of people he was ruling I can't really fault him for using an iron fist.
Seriously, by the standards of "crimes against humanity" we could hang every ruler of every country in the world.
