CNN reporting that Iraqi law prevents executions during Muslim holiday, and Saturday is a Sunni religious holiday. Hmmmmmm.

[AVNevis]

I thought that the holiday started on Saturday?

Last I checked, that Muslim holiday doesn't start until sundown tomorrow.

For similar religious reasons, can't be hanged Sunday.
But we have some time left for Friday Iraqi time.

And that is enough to finish the tyrant. He's a goner shortly.

According to a report, the observance of Eid (get your Eid stamps at your local Post Office) starts either tomorrow or Sunday depending on whether one is Sunni or Shia.

I figure it's either been done already or will be done within hours. Everything else under Iraqi law has been met to clear the way for Saddam's hanging.
