"This is the message I have for the terrorists," he said of the hanged prisoners, "we will see that you get great punishment wherever you are. There is nothing for you but prison and punishment."
That will help send a message! Good for them!

Interesting. That sounds like a fine destination for all those prisoners the aclu considers "tortured" in Guantanamo. We should just return them to the country where they were captured. Perhaps info extraction (by Iraqis of course) will be easier with certain particular consequences staring them in their faces.

Gotta say....
There's a part of me that admires Saddam for keeping the lid on that nut house (Iraq) for all those years. I think that we now understand why it took a SOB like Saddam to run the place.
If he would've allowed inspectors, and would've refrained from invading his neighbors, he's still be sitting in one of his palaces.

Well, my feelings about what lovely folks the Iraqi's are I guess has been confirmed.

More prisoners need to be heading there.

Well, it is under new management. None of that pile of naked men stuff.

Snuffin' people, a couple dozen at a time, hardly seems like progress to me.

I think you don't know the Middle East. While most countries there are ruled by dictators and kings, they do not need to be as brutal as the Butcher of Bagdad (Saddam).

You got that right. If it were a return to the old days, those prisoners would have been fed feet first through industrial cardboard shredders.

It was a slave planation with the Sunni Arabs on top and everybody else on the bottom.
Saddam served no purpose other than his own pleasure.

The people in the Middle East, and particularly those most immediately affected by the terrorists understand that neither the terrorists, or those in the Middle East that want to be rid of them give one %^&%$( twit about the U.S. justice system giving the terrorists their "rights", via the courts and John McPain's Al Queda Bill of Rights law.
Maybe the Iraq military, without our PC constraints, just might get the terrorists cleaned up.

I am much in agreement with you. Saddam understood them better than we ever could, If he hadnt been power mad and allowed inspections he would still be in charge.

Terrorist are not people. These jerks are blowing up children at schools and people shopping in markets.
Hang them High, or low, just make sure they can't kill again.
