Did you ever think of Saddam's possibilities as a great man had he gone for good instead of evil? I still think of what a great man Hitler could have been if he had put all his energy into doing good for mankind and his country. He would now, be considered the greatest man that ever lived. Instead he chose evil and now is the greatest dictator. An emblem of evil itself.

Why this concern over a dignified death that will spare him being beaten to death in prison? My prayers are for his eternal soul; that Saddam will understand Christ's message of love and conscience, repentance and forgiveness; and that he will repent sincerely and completely before he dies so that when he comes face to face with his Maker, he will recognize Him and cry out, "Yeshua!", not "Allah."

"Saddam Hussein is now taking his rightful place alongside Hitler, Stalin, Lenin and Ceausescu in the pantheon of failed, brutal dictators and the Iraqi people are well on their way to freedom."
-- Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld, Apr. 9, 2003.

Just finding it awfully difficult to believe old Saddam wrote that.

Thanks Texkat.
Saddam Hussein urged Iraqis to embrace "brotherly coexistence" and not to hate U.S.-led foreign troops in a goodbye letter posted on a website yesterday, a day after Iraq's highest court upheld his death sentence and ordered him hanged within 30 days... But he also voiced support for the Sunni Arab-dominated insurgency, saying: "Long live jihad and the mujahedeen." He urged Iraqis to be patient and rely on God's help in fighting "against the unjust nations."
Yeah, that makes sense. Typical Moslem doubletalk.
