Saddam Video of Body after Hanging (New 1-8-07)

The Drop Broke Saddam's neck killing him instantly. At the executions following the Nuremberg Trials others were not so lucky.

THE TRIAL OF THE CENTURY--AND OF ALL TIME, PART TWO

"..The executions, in a brightly lighted prison gymnasium where three looming black wooden gallows had been erected, were witnessed by a handful of Allied military officers and eight journalists, one of whom, Kingsbury Smith of International News Service, wrote a famous newspaper article, "The Execution of Nazi War Criminals, 16 October 1946," based on his eyewitness observations. Although Smith discreetly omitted mentioning it, the experienced Army hangman, Master Sgt. John C. Woods, botched the executions. A number of the hanged Nazis died, not quickly from a broken neck as intended, but agonizingly from slow strangulation. Ribbentrop and Sauckel each took 14 minutes to choke to death, while Keitel, whose death was the most painful, struggled for 24 minutes at the end of the rope before expiring..."

He went too easy. He deserved the shredder-running slow.
Well- he's with 'allah' now- in hell. A little less evil in the world.

Anderson Cooper was about to cry. That would have been bad. His makeup would have run.

Too bad it couldn't have taken place 20 years ago.

But I guess 20 years ago, no one knew he was such a sh!!.

As an American and a Christian, I am sad at this execution.
I wish there was a better way to end this evil without acting so barbaric.

Yes, Saddam's regime was wicked. But, a hanging death like this is a sad commentary on man.

May God save and keep America safe
at this time when the world is watching.

Ecclesiastes 8:2 I say, "Keep the command of the king because of the oath before God.
Ecclesiastes 8:3 "Do not be in a hurry to leave him. Do not join in an evil matter, for he will do whatever he pleases."
Ecclesiastes 8:4 Since the word of the king is authoritative, who will say to him, "What are you doing?"
Ecclesiastes 8:5 He who keeps a royal command experiences no trouble, for a wise heart knows the proper time and procedure.
Ecclesiastes 8:6 For there is a proper time and procedure for every delight, when a man's trouble is heavy upon him.
Ecclesiastes 8:7 If no one knows what will happen, who can tell him when it will happen?
Ecclesiastes 8:8 No man has authority to restrain the wind with the wind, or authority over the day of death; and there is no discharge in the time of war, and evil will not deliver those who practice it.
Ecclesiastes 8:9 All this I have seen and applied my mind to every deed that has been done under the sun wherein a man has exercised authority over another man to his hurt.
Ecclesiastes 8:10 So then, I have seen the wicked buried, those who used to go in and out from the holy place, and they are soon forgotten in the city where they did thus. This too is futility.
Ecclesiastes 8:11 Because the sentence against an evil deed is not executed quickly, therefore the hearts of the sons of men among them are given fully to do evil.
Ecclesiastes 8:12 Although a sinner does evil a hundred times and may lengthen his life, still I know that it will be well for those who fear God, who fear Him openly.
Ecclesiastes 8:13 But it will not be well for the evil man and he will not lengthen his days like a shadow, because he does not fear God.

When you hang a man you better look at him.

[umgud]

I feel a great loss. And it really feels great.

[rjp2005]

Wiki already lists him deceased - those guys are quick.

Double edged sword - justice done for Iraqis, but removes the last political figurehead standing in Iran's way in their bid to control the entire Shiite Crescent.

[Senormechanico]

That's been my fondest wish for a looong time, even though at the time, it was in the future!

The Iraqi people are going to be having the best Holiday ever today.
