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..."
LOL...I saw that! She and Cooper were exchanging little snide chuckles about how you differentiate celebratory gunfire from the other...ugh.
No, a dozen more might 'help' but I doubt it.
Yes, Saddam's regime was wicked. But, a hanging death like this is a sad commentary on man.
No, this execution is an example of Biblical justice. Executing a despot and killer allows God to deal with him, for he is too lost for us as mere humans. One reason the death penalty has fallen into disfavor, is that we dont allow God to dispense justice. People have forgotten the afterlife unless they think of a sweet and cloud covered heaven.
Hitler killed himself.
Scarborough is scum!
What? That can't be, the MSM said we would lose twice the number of troops and there would surely be CIVIL WAR immediately after!
They must be very sadened indeed.....
Can't you hear that pitter pat
And that hippy-hop is your step
Now life won't be so sweet
On the Sunni side of the street

CNN can show our military being MURDERED but they are going to watch the video FIRST and decide if they can show the rest of us mere mortals those 'horrifying' photos of Saddam getting his justice according to AC. PUKE!
"Wish he'd been tried for all his crimes..."
The problem with that is that he would still be on trial in 2020, and would have been sentenced to death multiple times for his atrocities.
Good Point!

Can we expect less from the ENEMY WITHIN ----> CNN?
I'm sure Allan will get called on the carper over this one, the complaints are coming in to FOXN at Server smashing velocity.
Um, yeah, thanks. They were debating whether Hitler should have faced the death penalty had he lived to the end of the war and been captured.
THIS IS AN EX-TYRANT!!
Great set up..must finish it..Michael Palin: "I have always wanted to be a Lumberjack!!..Leaping from tree to tree..etc."...and then John Cleese screaming.."What about my parrot"..
That last pic - it looks like he's saying:
"Well, then. I guess I had better get on the stick!"
I knew I'd catch heat for offering it up, but that's what makes us better people and what Christ commands us to do, praying for the sinners and for the souls of evil in the hopes that they repent.
DEBATING? It's obvious that he would've. Many Nazis did.
