I don't think it's fake if that's what you mean. It's not hip slang though. Don't you ever watch Cops on tv? They say that all the time.

(1) ok
(2) I know, I was being sarcastic
(3) no
(4) good for them and thanks for answering the question.

and btw, you really don't need to go on about how hot his execution makes you. I'm sure we all get it.

i don't approve death sentence, never, i don't think it's civilize to kill people even if they were a mass murderer.
but that's my little opinion.
iand i don't understand anything what it's like building up... a...democracy.
maybe it needs a victim...
maybe it's that stupid.
kill an ex-dictator and you' ll have peace.

Wasn't he hanged on a muslim holiday? Revolting.

This is how I feel too and as much as I hate that others are feeling that way, I feel strangely comforted by the fact. His upcoming execution was causing me great anxiety on Friday and I really couldn't explain why.

I'm all for the death penalty. I wish the US would adopt the Iraqi method of quickness of the death penalty. They don't mess around. My uneasiness has subsided. I'm just waiting for the backlash.

I believe it was the day before the muslim holiday. They wanted to get it out of the way.

he wouldn't have been 'eligible for the punishment' after 70. i think it also had something to do with that.

i don't think it was right that video was taken, no matter how it was taken. & that we, the people, were able to view it. he took his punishment. it should have been left alone. all of it.

Without being a legal scholar, I'd guess from casually following his trial that it'd have been a mistrial anywhere else. It reeks of a soviet-block trial from the cold war. He was not some innocent victim, true. He didn't get due process and casually throwing someone's rights away "because" bothers me.
The fact that the trials lasted so long and it took so long to get to this point....and also all the potential books that could be written about "Saddam being treated unfairly!"

It looks like they did this a lot to the letter...he was treated more fairly than he really deserved...

And no, we can't stop everyone who goes around on killing sprees...but at least one of them is gone...and he got his words in before that time.

There's a picture of him hanging with a broken neck in the Guardian. Lovely.

I think it was right that he should be punished for his crimes, but i'm not sure hanging him was the wisest thing to do, considering we caught him when we really had no reason to be in his country in the first place. There were no weopons of mass destruction, the war was/is illegal. Now he's probably going to be seen as a martyr and the country is going to continue descending into civil war.

I know it's being trumpeted as 'the death of a tyrant', but If we're so keen to end crimes against humanity then why not fight Mugabe?

The whole thing is just a mess.

"We" didn't choose how he died. It was the Iraqi's that did. Thats how they do things there.

It was our completely unwarranted and illegal interference that led to his trial and execution. Not to mention that he was held in American custody and finally sentenced to death by a court that was under heavy American influence.

So yes, we basically did choose how he died.

It may be childlike but it doesn't really matter.

I've never supported Bush or this war and I do believe that once you take someones life, you should lose all basic human rights, so that definately includes Saddam, and possibly Bush at the hands of others.

And as far as the death penalty is concerned, I don't look at it as setting an example that killing is wrong. Its ridding the world of someone thats horrible. And for that button posted, everyone pretty much knows the general basic rules of life and if you fuck up, there are going to be consequences. Rules need to be in place or this place would be fucked up even more. So I do not agree with that button.

Thats another way to look at it. So I see your point!
