Saddam may face hanging as soon as Saturday: White House

CRAWFORD, United States (AFP) - The White House expects ousted Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein to be executed perhaps as early as Saturday, a senior official said on condition of anonymity.

The official cited information from US authorities in Baghdad that "it's not going to be tonight our time, or tomorrow their time, it's going to be maybe another day."

"It's the government of Iraq's decision," the official said, as US President George W. Bush and top national security aides mulled an overhaul of his Iraq war-fighting strategy.

Asked whether the execution could spark violence by lingering Saddam loyalists, the official replied that "they start violence for any reason they can come up with."

And Saddam, do you have any last words? "Yes" he replied, "Dirka, dirka, Mohammad Jihad."

hahahaha

I'm guessing 12:01 Sat morning, since tomorrow is a religious holiday for them.

Another example of the sick tributes the NY Times pays to evil monsters upon their deaths:

It will be indeed fascinating to watch the NYT, Washington Post, Minneapolis Star and Tribune, Chicago Tribune and LA Times for their stories on this event.

Then we will have to audit DU and Moveon.

Fox News (Shepherd Smith) says that Saddam may hang within 24 hours.
