It's easy for us to talk about what would be a perfect solution, but there's really no perfect solution. The people who are in a position to decide what's going to happen to someone like Saddam have it tough because what do you do? But personally I have no qualms about the death penalty if the guy in question can be found guilty without a shadow of a doubt, and I think that's the case here. Everyone knows he did bad things and killed a lot of Iraqi people, so I think he deserved to die for that.
Also, I think if they just stuck him in jail for the rest of his life Iraq would never be able to relax. I think a lot of people in Iraq would remain afraid that he'd somehow get out and take over again. At least now they can be sure that that part of their history is over, and they can look to the future. There are never perfect solutions to things like this. I don't necessarily agree with everything about the Iraq war, and a lot I disagree with as do many people. But I did think that Saddam needed to be removed, and that wasn't going to happen by talking. Some times you need to use force.
Just my opinion of course! :)

I wonder why they filmed it, frankly. What's the point?

Because people can make money out of it, you dimwit. That's the whole point of introducing Western values in the middle east! To make money out of it!
It's the smartest thing they could have done as well. While you are here posting and generally just wasting your time, an ass in Iraq was smart enough to grab his cellphone and film the hanging for generations to come (read: fill his own pocket).

How much money would broadcasting stations like CNN and Al Jazeera pay for clips like those? Exactly.

I like the BBC Online headline Saddam not hanged 'for revenge', as if in some parallel world they denied him his martyerdom by not hanging him. Makes you think about alternative dimensions and all sorts of shit. Right?

The Muslim new year isn't until 20th January this year when the year will become 1428AH.
The hanging on the first day of Eid was a little bit bad though.

wasn't trying to say i'm sad he's gone. if you say it's wrong that a dictator got what he deserved, then you're hopelessly lost to the left.

'funkmaster' as we know is a limp wristed liberal fence sitter, unless pressed to act in his 'normal' way.

I feel bad about the whole thing, not because of boo hoo, poor old Uncle Sadaam, or whatever his blighted name was, but just that this is one more bad episode in humanity's already soiled copybook. I'd like to think people were basically decent and above being vindictive cunts with short term goals. I really would. And this just, flies in the face of that.
