Are they short of rope? Post an address. I'll mail some.

[AmericaUnited]

It should be done right when the ball hits bottom in Time Square.

[babaloo]

Is his hanging going to be in synch with the ball dropping in Times Square?

[Izzy Dunne]

within the next few days

a couple more days

maybe another day or so,

Or not.

[Bosco]

In Iraq, lots of people get killed every day with little or no preparation, forethought or consideration.

Anyone else find this ironic?

How about having Saddam stand in line for police/army recruiting and have them kill their own former leader?

[housewife101]

I just want to know if it is going to be televised?

[nancyvideo]

Reuters just posted a headline saying Iraqi officials have said they won't be hanging Saddam within the 30 day time period. Who to believe? Reuters or Reuters?

[Laptop_Ron]

Let's just get this sideshow over with already.

[AxelPaulsenJr]

Bet when the time comes ole Saddam squeals like a pig.

[dc-zoo]

We can only hope the Iraqi's don't cave to Bath party threats.

[007girl]

Couldn't resist! heheee

[Abathar]

I wonder what the hold up is, get a rope and do it already! It's not like you have to look hard to find someone willing to pull the stupid lever....

[TomGuy]

What's the hold up?

Per reports, they must execute him before April 2007 when he turns 70. After that, it would be against Iraqi law to execute him.

Per reports, the US has already provided a mobile gallows.

Per reports, they have said they will execute him before the end of the year.

The longer they linger, the more likely the UN and EU and WC and ACLU and IRC and AI and CAIR will all be issuing their obligatory whines.

Get on with it!

If they don't the stomach to carry it out, heck, send him over to Ethiopia. Those Ethiopians seem to know who to deal with matters.

[ASA Vet]

Do it on Jan 15th thereby creating a real holiday.

[pfflier]

Can you imagine the mess the incoming congress can make of this? The Kucinich types would rant about how he was unfairly or illegally deposed. Then the Kerry types could use a live Saddam as leverage for further funding of the Iraq war (they would be for it before they would be against it). Finally the Clintoon types would wait and see how public opinion polls deal with the issue then claim the majority opinion as their own.

On the other hand, Robert Byrd, in one of his rare moments of cognizance, could offer his hood to the exectioner...

[pax_et_bonum]

If Saddam possesses an ounce of sanity, and I believe he does, facing the unknown time of his certain death is much more torturous than his actual hanging will be.

For this reason, I hope that he is as unsure of his death date as we are and, like his victims, is suffering in a cold sweat, wondering when the time will be.

[yield 2 the right]

I hope Saddam takes a short drop and a sudden stop soon before the UF?OSU BCS NC Game Jan. 8th or the start of Day 6(24)Jan. 14/15!

[pollywog]

I am probably alone concerning this hanging, but I would not want to watch anyone be hung, Sadaam included. I agree he should be put to death, but I don't find it something to celebrate.I hope and pray that Sadaam has a heart change before the rope goes around his neck. Heaven is open to the vilest sinner, if one seeks repentance. ( Remember the thief on the cross next to Jesus?)
Okay, I have spoken my piece. Flame away!

[Wraith]

The jailer opens the door and says Sadam its time for your haircut....
