It is over; the most despicable dictator of the last 20+ years is dead.

You knowledge of history is about as solid as your prof. title. A library (if you know what that is) is your friend.

Where is my knowledge of history wrong? Can you name somebody more deserving of that title?

Yes, unfortunately we let him be President twice.

Although many dictators have zesty appetites for women; that does not make clinton one

Don't lump me in there. I never voted for the man.

Seems really kinda sad that we go to such measures to inforce our will upon the people of the world... It is like we've programmed Gort and he is us...

Saddam was you hero? right?

How about LAWS and Sanity being our Hero... something blind bush supporters and bloodthirsty arrogant americans do not comprehend

Right now, there is no difference between supporters of this war and Saddam Hussein. Both kill innocents and try to justify it. Both are addicted to blood and death.

I will 2nd that.

The population of the USA and the rest of the civilized world is far better informed than they were back then and you dolts still voted for Bush

 

[junkiefp]

in for the vid

 

[Freshgeardude]

any videos of execution?

 

[dahunan]

Does it feel odd that so many people in this thread were never ever once affected by Saddam but are gleeful that he was hanged?

Imagine how Iraqis whose families were killed by mr bush feel about him and you?

If I were a christian or had any theist beliefs, I'd wish all of you pro-execution fuds a happy afterlife in hell.

You make assumptions... Saddam was an evil man and he's dead now. I am gleeful. He will never kill another person and the families of those he did kill have some sort of satisfaction and closing. However, I do not think the ends justified the means and I would say that to the families killed in the search for WMD's. No wait, I mean the 'liberation of Iraq'.

Wrong one. Clinton may have lied but nobody died.

This month we have lost more of our troops than ever before for a phoney War not waged by Clinton.

Do you understand the rule of law in the US and Internationally denies the US the right to violate the UN Charter? It has nothing to do with how I feel about Saddam personally but rather, how I feel personally about the means to the end...

Additionally: The trial was a farce from any aspect based on the opinion of experts on International law. I understand it was held in Iraq under Iraqi law, however, but for the illegal act of the invasion that event would not have occurred.

So and therefore, I submit that the violation of one man's rights that we scream to uphold is as bad as the many who have lost their rights for what ever reason... numbers are not important.. His guilt or innocence is not important because there is a much greater guilt and that guilt is having the holder of the 'Big Stick', in my name (and yours), use it to violate the rule of law that makes the stick a viable defense against those who'd seek to deny me (and you) my way of life...

Edit: Iraq was a sovereign nation before we over threw the government... Meaning the Iraqi were living their lives or dying as the case may be under their conditions... Human Rights Violations pointed to.... and how many are we complicit in destroying to further our objecives..? How on earth can we condem Saddam and not ourselves... how can we point to one event and not all of them.... how can we ever not point at ourselves when we point at Saddam... How many innocents died directly from our actions? Who screams for their rights... ? Well..... I do, damit... I do..

no mony shot, but you get the basic gist.

His crimes against humanity were OK when he was being supported by the U.S. during the Iran/Iraq war. Using chemical weapons almost on a daily basis during that war apparently OK also. Killing both soldiers and civilians. Crimes against humanity became an issue after he fell out of line politically.

 

[boomerang]

With Hussein now dead, Dubya has fulfilled his Daddy's legacy. His biggest regret having not taken care of Hussein while in office.

I've always felt this was the REAL reason we're in Iraq, along with some oil issues and lining the pockets of some friends of the Bush family. Haliburton, et al. Plus the noble ambition of forcing democracy down the throats of other nations.

As a noose was tightened around Hussein's neck, Haddad said one of the executioners yelled "long live Muqtada al-Sadr," referring to the powerful anti-American Shiite religious leader.

Hussein, a Sunni, mockingly uttered one last phrase before he died: "Muqtada al-Sadr," Haddad said.

Nice, one of the guard is a follower of al-Sadr, an anti-American. I guess everyone wanted Saddam dead - Iran, Shiites, U.S., even al-Sadr. His execution doesn't change a thing

Like Saddam said, if it wasn't for him, Iraq would be 3 separate countries.

This is the best news I have heard in a while.

Voted twice for Bush and would gladly allow him for a third term.

Best president of my lifetime and he's one of the few people out there doing the right thing. Lets just hope he puts a few more of these middle eastern nutjobs in the ground.

Good work, sir. We applaud you. Plenty of us out here still support you, don't let the "polls" and "figures" from the liberal media and left wing cities throw you. Everywhere I go I see Bush supporters and others who love what your doing. Keep killing them and we'll keep supporting you.

No sir, if I could get out my voting records I would but since that option does not exist you'll just have to go by my word.

I'd rather not vote than vote for a democrat. The left is the enemy of this country and I will not be a part of putting them in power. Bush and his gentlemen in office are doing the right thing and the right time and I will support him until the end.

Except for the immigration issue, but no one seems to think land mines on the border is a good idea.

Good post. I agree in that I believe GW was motivated to clean up the job his daddy left unfinished. That and to add to the profits of Haliburton and play into the hands of American Big Oil.

That said, Sadaam was an evil man and I have no sympathy for him at this point.
