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..."
So am I!

You betcha. If a Democrat had been President, we would have been treated to glowing nightly news reports of the rebuilding of Iraqi schools and infrastructure, the "heroic" trial of Saddam, the "miracle" of the free election ... On and on ...
I'll gladly donate to them my copy of the marvelous "Judgment at Nuremberg" movie....
Yes I saw some of that,I was referring to after Saddam's death. I'm flipping channels back and forth.
Looks like CNN is appalled at democracy at work.
Much as I hate to say it, CNN is covering this better than Fox News.
That moonbat scientologist Greta keeps yapping with talking heads while CNN shows the celebration in Dearborn.
Bush-bot here, definitely thanking GW.
Once again, life imitates South Park.
Thanks! :-)

That wasn't funny. Especially when you wrote, "Al-Jazeera reporting..."
Yeah, I've got it on in the next room, but I had to tune it out. CNN had a "panel" earlier that was talking about how Saddam's death either wouldn't make a difference, or would incite more violence.
They sure aren't handling this news well at all
