Saddam..........

I have no problem with the concept of executing Saddam. But the problem is that he's exactly the type of strongman needed to prevent Iraq from entering into a full-blown, Balkans-style civil war that is going to break out as soon as the US turns tail and runs in the very near future. It's like a bull wading into a china shop, smashing everything to shit, and then running off to leave the clean up to others.
Failure #1: Vietnam
Failure #2: Somalia
Failure #3: Iraq
Each time the US cut and run. If I was a third world dictatorship, I know exactly how to beat the big bad USA: just resist and send home American boys in bodybags on a daily basis and eventually the US won't have the stomach for it anymore. If there's one thing the US administration has done superbly, it's destroy American credibility in the world.

It wouldn't help. Though it would be a lot more effective than sending good ol' Georgie over.papasmerf said:
the whole court thing is an orchestra planned long before the court even started.
Anyone with a little knowledge of law would know how absurd this court was
Tomorrow they will execute him and they will hire several hundred kurds to
come and dance in the streets to show the world that the Iraqis are happy.
This is all an orchestra to fool the world but I am glad to see many have
figured it out. I just fear for a civil war which I think is the exact plan of the
Americans and British.
I am sad that we live in such an unjust world, fine Saddam is a murderer, but what about Bush who is responsible for the killing of 600,000 Iraqis.
Saddam signed the execution of those Iraqis for which he will be executed for.So a president who signs for a war who kills 600,000 should also be executed.
Too bad we live in a world that respects power and money only.
Not to mention the kurdish lawyer whose people are slaughtering dozens of Iraqi christians as we speak, but they brought that guy because of his hate to the arab sunnis.

good. that vicious brutal asshat needs to die. [mass murder is rude]. using chemical weapons on your own people is INCREDIBLY RUDE.
mr. saddam hussein of iraq [former dictator] is one of those people who really needs to die horribly.

Not to sound like a "flighty" conspiracy guy, but there is quite a bit of information out there about this guy not even really being Saddam.
Who knows anymore? All I know is none of these people put food our tables.

Osama for sure. I've seen WAY TOO MANY THINGS about that, and there is no question in my mind. Everything from what hand he wrote with, his ring finger...ect..
Saddam is a little foggy though. You would think with the Western world being so involved now, a leak would have sprung if it is not in fact him. Then again, since JFK, that could be said about many things.
I do not know if they have the real Saddam or not I am very sure they knowToronto Passions said:
if he is a body double or not though, one fact about the real Saddam is that he is about 6ft.5" so if this guy is shorter than that he is a body double.
The 140 people that he was convicted of killing in the trial were killed because they were allegedly involved in an assassination plot against Saddam . If this is true then they were committing treason which is punishable by death in many countries with or without a trial . At no time did I ever hear that he killed the wrong people so this particular trial may not be justified . I am willing to accept that he killed many innocent people at different times so execute away but this trial doesn't sit well with me . Another point I would like to ask about is the gassing of the Kurds . The Americans clearly stick to this event but there were 2 major independent UN human rights groups ( I can't recall the names ) that were strongly questioning if it happened . Anyone else remember this ? I don't think the trial served a public purpose and it would have been better if he was dead when found .

Just enforcing democracy alone, in a place that has never known such a thing, and has had combat since the region was simply the Fertile Crescent (a very long time before Christ), will always remain violent under this completely brand new direction it's been forced to take. Iraq is now a fish with no water.
Unless Islam is allowed to run it's course in Iraq, abolishing dictatorship by way of force, is only a short term solution with it's sole purpose pretty obvious. And it has very little to do with "Operation Freedom Iraq."
(Ok. I'm getting too political now. Back to the escort service I go.
