He was orderd to death by the IRAQI courts after his trial and he died this evening by a good old fashion HANGING after having been found guilty of murdering 100s of his Countryman in the past!! Sometimes I wonder if this is a an easier sentence (immeidate death) then sitting in an 8X7 cell like a dog the rest of one's natural life.

Sadam kept all those crazy ******* in line. That one man kept under control what the US & UN cannot. Looking back I think he was the right man for the job. He killed far less than whats been killed since the war started. There are ALOT of crazy ****'s in that part of the world.

It was eerie watching the vid. He's dressed in a suit, escorted by about 6 guys in ski masks. They put a black silk around his neck (apparently to protect against rope burn) and put the noose on.

They killed him, or either told all of us that he was killed and have him in some private cell somewhere...torturing him for the rest of his life....if they woulda told everyone that he was in a jail cell somewhere, somebody would tried to find him and get him out. This way, everyone forgets about it. Thats what I think anyway

This guy finally was offed in a less cruel way than he killed thousands of his countrymen. He was complicit in terrorism with Al Queda etc, and he was an all around piece of ****. One of my buddies sent me pics of human bones found at his son's torture palace, one of them a pelvis of a person about 5 years old (eaten by his personal lions). He got less than he deserved. They should've driven a hot poker up his can. Remember he was the one who tried to have Bush 1 killed while he was in Kuwait.

Saddam was a criminal, no doubt. However it was a mistake removing him from power.
He was acting like a stabilizing buffer in middle east, keeping Iran in check.

Once Iraq was invaded and Saddam removed, suddenly Iran's President is proceeding with nuclear program, denying hollocaust, shouting "death to americans", claiming "Israel will be wiped out soon from the map",etc....

Can USA afford another conflict in Iran ??? NO!
Saddam's Iraq was doing that for us. Iran/Iraq were constantly at war....
