Saddam Hussein Sentenced To Death

[Pete-Rock]

Is it good he got the death penalty? No, personally I have never agreed witht he death penalty and never will. To me, this is using two wrongs to make a right, and to me it is sad that a new government which is trying to establish a moral stance will now execute someone - a practice almost no 'democratic' nations still practice. Also, I saw it reported that the method would be hanging - which is truly arcane.

Very well said. I absolutely agree!

I even think that 30 more years in jail would be much more retribution for a man like him. He could not see himself as a martyr and got years and years to think about what he has done. And being in prospect of dying behind prison walls whenever that will be - well that is real punishment. No hope for any future, living a life not worth living - thats what he deserves.

Utah doesn't use a firing squad .And Saddam is responsible for killing or having killed hundreds of thousands of people.They should gas him.Having him sitting in a make shift jail all his life would be useless .The people of Iraq deserve better then that.And you talk about civil war , that's funny the Sunni militias attack each other!

Somebody please explain to me the true meaning of civil War.Kennedy once said we would bare liberty at any cost

Finally Bush got what he always wanted. But the question is ... who's gonna senteced him for all the things he had done? For me its not about Freedom and Liberty is all about Oil.

Im not Pro Sadam, no way, im ANTI-BUSH

I agree too
Bush is not my favourite statesman
Death penalty for Saddam is rightful! No doubts.
But my meaning about US international politic is not excelent.
What about Tibet? Why nobody is interested about their situation?
I know that China is gross rival and please no war there but why "freedom" in Iraque is more important now?
I have ABSOLUTELY nothing against USA or people there i only dont sympathize with that politic. And if this annoyed anybody here then i am really sorry for that.
I dont think that situation in Iraque is much better now, if ever. Next question is why didnt USA do it earlier? There were considerable reasons for doing it than suspicion of mass destruction weapons.
That is my opinion of it.

Highly doubt Saddam will be killed by hanging. They'll probably do lethal injection.

As some allready said above, sentanced to death isn't close to be the most painful punnishment in the long run. Rottening in a cell is obviously ways more painful. But, there are some people that are to dangerous to the world to be kept alive, a very few of them from what I know and how I view things ( being very, very anti death sentance mainly ). Is saddam one of them? Well, The Iraqi court has made their decision.

Bush was supposed to go against Irak because he has intelligence information about "Chemical Weapons" been produced under Saddam's eyes, but, did the military find some? NO!, then he said that Saddam was hiding Bin Laden ... so they went after him, but NO Bin Laden. For me its just an excuse to take control of all the Oil produced by that country. Its all about interests. There's not free war, everytime a war is declared is because there is an especific interest.

Theres a lot of theories for this, even that the CIA planned all, lots of theories, but the only one that is up to the peopleo is the reason stated by G.Bush, War against terrorism ... F*** that. I dont trsut him and hope US citizens vote against war, against Bush.

I wonder whether this verdict will be upheld. There is probably a reasonable chance he will be given life in prison on appeal to the 9 judge panel - which is what he should get. All this is going to do is turn him into a martyr for many, hell they have already instituted a curfew in Iraq because they fear worse violence due tot he verdict.

Also interesting to see quite a bit of public opposition to the death sentance coming from around the globe, most notably the Vatican and the EU. I wouldn't be surprised if the Anglican Church followed.
