He got to power by being an assassin, a thuggish hitman.

They are saying that according to law, the hanging must take place within 30 days???

Within 30 days from the end of the appeal according to Fox.

And Saddam is upset because he said hanging is for "common people?"

I think I see what his main problem is/was.

This verdict will be appealed automatically. In all likelihood, Saddam Hussein won't face the gallows this year.

Thanks for the correction. I knew 30 days was in there somewhere. STILL better than California, where most people on death row could die of old age faster.
