Security forces in Iraq have been placed on alert on the first anniversary of the execution of former President Saddam Hussein. His supporters are expected to gather at his power base in the city of Tikrit, and at his grave nearby.
Saddam was hanged after being convicted of the killings of nearly 150 Shia Muslims in Dujail in the 1980s.

While they are gathered there send in the troops. I’m sure they will find a few bad apples to arrest hanging around.
