ps. i saw a vid on the internet it showed a vid of saddam after the habging…ALIVE

Saddam was a person! just think people every day are killed by bad people. Bad people are killed by the government! There just lowering them self to the bad peoples level if not even lower because most of the bad people who kill other people have mental problems and the government has none except they think killing as a punishment is okay! I think you should cut Saddam a little slack, he was under presure and I believe G.W. Bush paid him to hit the two towers on 9/11.

I think you are all being unfair! think of Saddam as a person and not the horrible man that he is. If Michel Jackson can live why cant Saddam Housein?

where is omar benladin?  Saddam derserved 2 die, butI think we really need to be looking at the koreans with thier nuclear potential. We should just blow all the assholes up before the do any damage to any one else!

thanks you
stephanie

I dont think he should have been hung. I tink insted of death sentances we should have them be human test subjects ya know insted of animal testing.

NOW LET’S HANG THE REST:  GEORGE, DICK, AND DONALD; ALL MASS MURDERERS.

On Saturday 2006, At 6:10 A.M Baghdad time, refusing to wear the face mask his executers wanted to place on him, according to Judge Haddad who was present, he pronounced his last words to the Iraqi people saying, “Be united! And beware to trust the Iranians or the occupiers.” He was reported to be brave in his defiance till the last moment.

Well, Saddam was hanged, and few entities in the world had their day of celebrating “the Day of Sacrifice” in lieu of the saddened Arab and Muslim Worlds. These entities include imperial U.S.A. Administration, Zionist Israel, Shi’ite Iran, the Shi’as of Iraq and Kuwait. It is an irony of history that traditional enemies such as United States, Iran and Israel are brought together in something to celebrate. In his life, Saddam Husain was a controversial figure to the point of irony, so in his death he has proven to be the controversial master of ironies.
 
With this apparently cheap victory, which would prove to be very costly, Zionist Israel and imperial U.S.A. seem to have achieved a relatively long-term benefit of divide and rule between the majority Sunnis and the minority Shi’as. This conflict was already in full swing inside Iraq, thanks to the American occupation, but soon and in the months and years to come it will spread like a raging fire to the whole Muslim World.

Judging by the comments of the average street persons I read in the Arab media outlets one day after his hanging, Saddam is already the supreme martyr, at least in the majority Sunni Muslim world. For example, Qadhafi of Libya has declared three days of mourning for Saddam Husain death. This Qadhafi is one leader who tried a policy of moderation and accommodation with the U.S. in the last three years; with his declaring official state mourning in Libya over the hanging of Saddam Husain, he is, en essence, signaling an attitude of going back to his old radicalized ways.

What ironies history can bring us in the space of little more than two decades! In 1979, following the Islamic revolution in Iran, the U.S. became the sworn enemy of Iran, inciting secular Saddam Husain and helping him in his 8-year war against Islamic Iran. Then the U.S. set up the trap of Kuwait for him, when they gave him the green light to invade Kuwait. This brought about the first short Gulf War; a prelude for more serious plans to plunge the area into strife, conflict and bigger wars, like the one raging in Iraq now for three and half years.

These developments are based on an old colonial old trick of divide-rule-exploit, revived in the mid 1970 by the cunning Zionist Henry Kissinger. Up to the point of the American Invasion of Iraq, the troubles in that neighborhood were based on crude secular and nationalistic considerations. However, with the hanging of Saddam Husain, all future troubles and strife would be based on religious antagonism between Sunnah and Shi’a. This would be the legacy of the U.S. intervention in Iraq when the history of this era will be written.

The U.S.A. administration would be well advised to raise the so-called security colored code to red, and keep it there permanently for a long time to come; for the Arab-Muslim street is boiling after Saddam Husain was made the latest ultimate martyr.

Personally, though at times I admired his courage in defying the arrogant and misguided U.S. politics and policies, I am not shedding tears of sadness over Saddam’s tragic ending, for he was never my hero. However, I am deeply saddened for the dark future of the people of Iraq and the region in general, who are either ruled by corrupt and irrelevant leaders, or by leaders who sold themselves cheaply to become the stooges of the United States and Israel’s colonial and imperial designs. I am also saddened that evil and criminal Bush is surviving Saddam Husain and seems to be able to finish his term without being brought to justice for his crimes against humanity!

“The Americans want him to be hanged respectfully,” al-Naomi said. If Saddam is humiliated publicly or his corpse ill-treated, “that could cause an uprising, and the Americans would be blamed,” he said.”

How do you hang someone respectfully—the death sentence shows utter contempt for life, it represents the ultimate retribution—death.

To add sparkle to the holiday season, and to bring the year to a grand finale, FOX News might hold a New Years special; a double header of excitement—-something that’ll really increase ratings—-they could decide to air OJ’s film “If I Did it,” followed by a film called “If We Won;” a step by step account of Hussein at the gallows, followed by scenes of chaos in Baghdad. 

What a pitiful misadventure this has become—-660,000 Iraqi civilians dead, 3,000 American troops killed, a country in chaos and now a ghoulish execution.

The whole world paid attention to Saddam Hussein death. How’s about if King George died ? I think there’re very few or nobody notice.

Hanging Saddam

By Mike Whitney
“There’s no way to describe the loss we’ve experienced with this war and occupation. There is no compensation for the dense, black cloud of fear that hangs over the head of every Iraqi. Fear of the Americans in their tanks, fear of the police patrols in the black bandanas, fear of the Iraqi soldiers wearing their black masks at the checkpoints.” Riverbend; blogs from Baghdad

12/29/06 “Information Clearing House”——The execution of Saddam Hussein is another grim chapter in the catalogue of war crimes perpetrated against the Iraqi people. It is a gratuitous act of barbarism devoid of justice.

What right does Bush have to kill Saddam? What right does the author of Abu Ghraib, Falluja, Haditha and countless other atrocities have to pass judgment on the former leader of a nation which posed no threat to the United States?

Let’s be clear, the lowliest, most ruthless Iraqi has more right to rule Iraq than the most upright American. That’s what’s meant by “self determination”. When we honor “self rule” we avoid bloody interventions like the invasion of Iraq.

Bush believes that killing Saddam will achieve the “closure” which has eluded him through 4 years of occupation. But he is mistaken. Saddam’s death will only eliminate any opportunity for a political solution. Reconciliation will be impossible and Saddam will die as a hero.

Is that what Bush wants?

Or does Bush really know what he wants? Perhaps, he is just a war-mongering psychopath completely disconnected from reality.

Capital punishment is a moral evil. The state never has the right to kill its own people regardless of their crimes; Saddam is no exception. But the premeditated murder of Saddam is particularly appalling, because it is stupid as well as unjust. It cuts off dialogue with the very people (the Ba’athist-led resistance) who need to be entered into the political process to achieve normalization. Bush is destroying his last chance for a negotiated settlement and paving the way for America’s total defeat.

It’s complete madness.

The Iraqi Prime Minister, Nouri al-Maliki, told the Times Online that “the deposed president could be hanged ‘within hours’” and that his death sentence would be executed by Saturday at the latest.

Munir Haddad, the presiding judge on the appeals court, said, “All the measures have been done. There is no reason for delays.”

Plans are already underway to film the entire event.

It’s impossible to imagine a more fitting summary of 6 years of Bush rule than video-footage of Saddam’s limp figure dangling at the end of a rope. The pictures will no doubt replace the iconic photos of the hooded Abu Ghraib prisoner who appeared in headlines across the world.

The United States will pay a heavy price for Bush’s savagery. The war is already going badly and this latest travesty will only quicken America’s inevitable withdrawal.

America has become a moral swamp, its leaders incapable of wisdom or mercy. Hanging Saddam only adds to our mutual disgrace and exposes the real face of American justice.
