Hope Bush gets the same fate, but alas, it'll never happen, some democracy eh?
Edit: Yes, Saddam deserved this. But the court and the trial were a faux pas, to even deny it or contemplate denying that fact would be really really utterly stupid of someone. It was the biggest kangaroo trial/court in history. If justice is to be served it should be done so in a professional and honorable manner. Let's see how long it'll take for a full out civil war to break out over this.
I heard it from the CBC, since the 24-hour Deathwatch is a little morbid. :snooty:
This means everything's fixed, right? Right?
:shuriken:
Is there a point coming anytime soon? If not, let me know so I can skip over your jabber. :sleep1:Quote:

The Iraqi people are happy to be rid of him. Other reports state that they are not expecting a strong increase in violence. Obviously, there will probably be a few isolated incidents, but a civil war? Nope. Would you like to eat those words now or later? :whistling

The execution was videotaped and photographed, state television reported, and those images will be distributed to the media.
Excellent job, I would of preferred him being shot by firing squad though.
I'd like to see it.Quote:

soon they will drop as well, mark my word.
What reports? There has ALREADY been deaths over this, towns have been cordoned off and all leave cancelled.Quote:

Whether he deserved this or not, the fact is, this trial was a farce, one judge was even sacked for showing sympathy to Saddam, others who have shouted and put him down were considered OK.
Why was he executed now? Why didn't he stand trial for the gassing of the Kurds? Could it be because facts would have been brought up that the US doesn't want known?
They've just shown the execution on British TV,they did not show the drop.
If you don't want to see him about to bu hung do NOT look at the spoiler.
Spoiler: Show
You can see the video here, you'll have to click on the 'Free dial-up' unless you subscribe.
They don't show him dropping, but they do show his body afterwards.
May God have mercy on his soul.
...and on those who decided to play God :(
I find that picture rather disturbing by the way.
It's bad taste and hypocritical.
We're not allowed to post porn but it's ok to show a man about to be killed>
It's nothing better than a snuff movie.
Sickening
Yes indeed you made a comprehensive point yourself. :rolleyes: Just like all the other threads where you make infantile statements like "that's silly"....yet can never explain why.Quote:

Going into Iraq had nothing to do with the "war on terror". Iraq was not a threat to us and had not attacked us.
By every technical definition it's a civil war. 3000+ killed each month, who is killing those people?
I couldn't care less about the demise Of hussain. He is one among many in this world that deserves such a fate. What I care about is what it actually achieves in ending this war? what has it solved?
It's solved the problem of dragging countries into a 'who supplied the chemicals' trial, that's why he was tried for a crime that didn't involve other countries. Now he's gone, and the awkward questions won't be asked.Quote:

It would seem that if this evidence was released for view by any and all, any voices previously inclined to rise in support of "fairness" to Saddam might be muted.
One might say we would be "sickened", no?
This bent to keep such evidence from review by other than judicial bodies deprives us of what we need to discern good from evil, moral from immoral...we have been deemed too fragile to deal with these things, but how are we to think correctly about any of it without access to the evidence?
Are we afraid we'd be stricken with bloodlust?
BTW-
It's the same dynamic that has the pro-abortion crowd screaming about showing an indecisive pregnant mother video of a baby in the womb, or, conversely, a partial-birth abortion, so that she might make an "informed" decision about her condition.
I agree there was political mischief involved in the way it was handled. I think that the "trial" was a predetermined piece of theatrics. But I also think that he got what he deserved.Quote:

It was silly. It's an immensely biased poll, and only you would require explanation.
Do you honestly think that the American people think that Bush is worse than Satan on a 25:1 basis?? It's just silly. They didn't even try to make the poll believable, yet they posted it anyways. And where was the poll taken anyhow? In the MSNBC break room? The Oscars? ACLU headquarters? It certainly wasn't an accurate depiction of the American peoples feelings, otherwise he would have a maximum approval rating of 4%.
It's just as silly Seedler's "Army Ranger". Silly, silly, silly. :noes:
The question was "name your villain of 2006". they didn't offer those names and ask people to chooseQuote:

The poll just reported the answers given and the percentages.Quote:

If you think it bias or silly to ask "who was your villain of 2006" or "who was your hero of 2006", and not give a choice from a list of names, but let the person come up with their own answer, then please enlighten me as to how such a question could be polled in an unbiased and non silly way.
Now had you said "I don't agree with their choice" then you may have a reasonable opinion. But instead you decided that the poll was silly and bias:rolleyes:
Skiz probably assumed it was multiple choice like all his tests from schoowol.Quote:

It is an Iraqi tradition to kill their leaders. They used to drag their bodies through the streets of Baghdad but TV suffices these days. Saddam lasted longer than most because he was a mean piece of work. I am not convinced that the current leaders will last as long but one can hope. If Iraq fails as a State then we will have made the ME a worse place not a better place. Consequently, we will be digging deep for men and money for a quite a while yet.
Not sure where Skizo gets the no civil war thing from - even the Pentagon is concerned about the rising sectarian violence.
...And then realised we were just having a discussion and not trying to "pwn" each other? Go back to the Lounge idiot.Quote:

i'm surprised nobody else noticed how the question was worded.
doesn't seem so biased when you don't read it as "who is the most evil person living, dead or made up ever in the history of the world?"

are you claiming not to have read the poll details, and claiming it's biased? :blink:
I'm lost. Though Skizo's claims that "we were having a discussion" made me laugh.Quote:
