Saddam to be executed by 2pm

A senior Iraqi government official says Saddam Hussein will be executed before 2pm today.


Saddam Hussein may be hanged within hours

Good riddance.

Re: Saddam to be executed by 2pm

It's on the front page of CNN.com now. He's to be executed at 6am local time (10pm EST).

It'll be interesting to observe the Iraqi response to this.

Re: Saddam to be executed by 2pm

He got the easy way out, if you ask me. Atleast that dirty old man got what was long overdue.

that would take hours.... electrecution, lions, hanging (done that) shooting, gassing, beating, mutilation.... the list is endless. i would love to have had him mustard gassed or something though... thats far more painful than hanging.

Re: Saddam to be executed by 2pm

Well, they say the videotaped and photographed everything from from right before the transfer up until when he died.

So if it's not on YouTube yet, check back in an hour.

Re: Saddam to be executed by 2pm

Whats sad is the Iraqis who are grateful for what we have done and his death cant celebrate because they would be killed by the minority of people causeing the problems.

Re: Saddam to be executed by 2pm

Just wathced some stuff on the news.

Disapointed that they hanged him on a day were the Constitution reads that you are not supposed to (some kind of religious day or something). Way to keep it real Iraqi government.

Disapointed that they allowed cell-phone cameras to tape him being cursed by others there (most likely Shea). The reason I am disapointed is that this will further inflame the tangos and help them recruit more tangos.
You guys know I am hardcore into reducing the recruitment of rebels/insurgents/tangos.

In conclusion, Sic semper tyrannis, indeed.

Re: Saddam to be executed by 2pm

Yeah, the quasi-legality and carnival nature of the proceedings probably didn't help. Would have been better handled in an international format.
