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..."

"Tell me that 'DU post' is a fake.......even if it isn't."

If you thought that one was bizzare, you should look at some of the others. The DU mods must be busy there tonight, as they are on all loony left sites desperately trying to keep the true feelings of the loony left from pooring out all across the nation.

They are truly disgusting sub-human slime.

you know, the ones how put their own personal agenda against what's best for this country.

No, I don't know, and I don't think that you do either. From the standpoint of a libertarian who readily aligns with and appreciates the conservative perspective, I think that you have grossly misjudged the values and objectives of those conservatives whom you denigrate.

Yeah. Folks really should give some thought to the depths of the depravity of this fiend.

Torturing children in the presence of their parents. Torturing parents in the presence of their children. Family members' heads delivered in bags. People killed in wood chippers. On and on and on the stories go...

I not only voted for Bob Dole, I worked to get him elected. I guess that I just didn't work hard enough. *sigh*

There is an article in the new "Commentary" magazine called "Is Coservatism Finished" by Wilfred W. McClay. All here should read this article. We will not wander in the wilderness for forty years and this stage can be part of a trend that can keep conservatism forefront for many years. Our competition (the Demos) have no plan for anything and can easily be beaten by talking sense.

Did you just hear him saying that people DANCED around Saddam's body when he was dead??????

I sure hope that is true.. I just got home and just now heard about the hanging. I am playing catch up and am very interested in the reaction in the streets of Iraq.

EV, why oh why do you continue to prove to the entire forum that you're just FOS?

You said you weren't going to post to me and damn if you didn't; you can't even keep your OWN WORD, so why the hell would ANYBODY listen to you.

And exactly WHICH party are you talking about? Certainly not one YOU belong to, right?

To: Hildy; Howlin; sinkspur

To anyone who cares,

I have left the GOP, pending the Governor of Florida and/or the President the United States acting according to their sworn oaths to uphold our constitutions and innocent human life by simply giving Terri Schiavo a drink of water.

I hope and pray fervently that the Governor and/or the President and their political advisors make my decision moot by acting to save this dying American citizen today.

Those who won't act to prevent a murder in progress, when they have the power to do so, deserves no patriotic American's political support ever again.

Feel free to pass this news along to anyone in any way you feel would be appropriate.

Per Fox News - Saddam refused to wear a hood and shouted "God is Great!"

The GOP convention was held in San Diego and although I didn't meet Senator Dole, I did see and shake hands with several others.

I wish I could have stopped this action because if follows killing the great Indians of American and all our western evils. I wish peace for this tribe of humans who do not deserve it. I wish I was not witness to this.

LOL. Hello my FRiend. I have all four TV's running and my trusty Webtv ready to get some "live" screen caps of history and get 'em posted right away.

Is this THE thread to put them on first or is there another where I should post them first. I just got home to hear "Ding Dong". The Butcher is pushing up Sand.

I can post all of those dancing in the streets in Dearborn right now also but.........

My only regret is that Ramsey Clarke didn't swing with Saddam....

Amen to that. That POS should be treated as a traitor.

Jamie Colby on Fox said Saddam refused to wear a hood. If so,
the pictures ought to be more definitive.
