Former Iraqi Dictator and Mass Murderer Saddam Hussein has been executed!

From My Way News:

BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) - Saddam Hussein, the shotgun-waving dictator who ruled Iraq with a remorseless brutality for a quarter-century and was driven from power by a U.S.-led war that left his country in shambles, was taken to the gallows clutching a Quran and hanged Saturday.In Baghdad’s Shiite enclave of Sadr City, people danced in the streets while others fired guns in the air to celebrate the former dictator’s death. The government did not impose a round-the-clock curfew as it did last month when Saddam was convicted to thwart any surge in retaliatory violence.

It was a grim end for the 69-year-old leader who had vexed three U.S. presidents. Despite his ouster, Washington, its allies and the new Iraqi leaders remain mired in a fight to quell a stubborn insurgency by Saddam loyalists and a vicious sectarian conflict.

President Bush called Saddam’s execution “the kind of justice he denied the victims of his brutal regime.”

I look upon Saddam’s death as a double edged sword. On one hand he was a ruthless dictator who was responsible for the torture and death of millions of Iraqis, Iranians and Kurds. On the other hand, he was the only leader in the region that kept the radical Shiite fanatics of Iran under wraps. We have rid the region of one lunatic only to replace him with another…Ahamadinejad!

Any chance we may see him on the street in a neck brace and beg the question: "So...how goes the appeal?"

...was driven from power by a U.S.-led war that left his country in shamble

I see the writer, while somewhat hailing the execution of Saddam, is still blaming the U.S. for the condition that Iraq is in. It couldn't occur to the writer that perhaps Saddam himself if responsible for the condition that Iraq is in, which occurred long before the U.S. and the allies went in?
