He's found guilty in crimes against humanity and has received a death penalty. Apparently he's going to be hanged sometime in 2007. His halfbrother is also sentenced to death by hanging, and Saddam's superior judge too. The former vice president is sentenced to life in jail, three former members of the Baath-party is sentenced to 15 years in jail, while two others get 22 years in jail. Mohammed Azawi Ali is free, due to lack of evidence. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/6117910.stm

timing makes me think it was aimed for right now, help the GOD out a bit
he should not be killed for attempting to keep his country together. If your citizens attempt to overthrow you and the government, you have the right - and the duty - to put them down
would you have okayd the hanging of Sherman or Lincoln

I'm not surprised but I would have thought that they could have thought up of something better than that as a kicker to try and get people to vote republican. They were really grasping at straws there.

Lady_Giselle the death penalty in general is just wrong. point blank. because personal opinions and individual moral codes should override law and order and the opinions and moral codes of others, as well as reasoning’s of others. the death penatly is not wrong, its an essential way to seek out justice.

But, y'know, I'm just crazy like that.
The thing that vexed me about Saddam's execution is how it was carried out. Further proof that giving middle-eastern radical Islamists technology is a bad, bad idea.
EDIT: I'm much more comfortable with a plain, old dictator, than one who sincerely think that he's been chosen by a big, invisible man in the sky. I don't know about you all, but to me, this sounds like psychotic behaviour. Much better to have a semi-sane dictator than that.

agrab0ekim dartalian Lady_Giselle the death penalty in general is just wrong. point blank. because personal opinions and individual moral codes should override law and order and the opinions and moral codes of others, as well as reasoning’s of others. the death penatly is not wrong, its an essential way to seek out justice. explain that please As referring to what? I assume you mean just the death penalty thing but I will attempt to explain it all. First she is using the statement that the death penalty is wrong without giving any reasons beyond that. Likely she is using her own moral code to do so. However her moral code should not be present in law. As for the death penalty being necessary. 1. Law does not deal with morals, but with laws written and set forth ahead of time and with the punishment for those actions likewise spelled out. (sometimes specifically in that law, or the law is placed in a general category such as class A felony, class B felony, Class D misdemeanor, etc with varying penalties for each.) 2. The death penalty is the ultimate punishment and tool that the criminal justice system can have at its disposal to address the most egregious breaches of the peace. 3. The death penalty was reinstated at the onset of the democratically elected government after the US banned its use until the government took over its own sovereignty and reinstated it. It is has since become a symbol that Iraq is its own government making its own laws and decisions, even if they are contrary to what the US had already established. 4. The current legal and ethical system used by the Iraqis use does rely partially on the teachings from the Koran, and as such are required by that system to maintain the use of the death penalty.

Much better to have a semi-sane dictator than that.That war if fought since the end of the gulf war, and with US and others staying out of it would have ended in the sunnies being wiped out. The Shia in the south would have taken the side of Iran, and wiped out the suni in the North putting the whole region under the rule of Iran. Then the whole region would be ruled by a dictator who thinks allah had him in power, (at least publicly to the people of Iran)
