Former Iraqi dictator Saddam Huseein was executed by hanging early Saturday morning. His last words, said Sami al-Askari, a political adviser to Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, related to the Israeli-Arab struggle in the Middle East.
"Before putting the rope around his neck, Saddam shouted 'Allahu Akbar. The nation will be victorious and Palestine is Arab,"' al-Askari was quoted as saying by the Associated Press.

Funny. That will be Jimmy Carter's last words as well.
No Mr. Worm Food, Palestinians are nothing but Arabs, and there are already plenty of Arab states for them to live in.
Funny, they have other official versions of his last words and the videos I have seen so far show him shouting nothing. I believe the author might be "mistaken."
He he. Good one.
Smooth move. As long as you're going to die, make a play for the sympathies of Jew Haters everywhere. And that's a pretty large group. Pretty, pretty large.
was that a quote from DU?
I suspect the last words of Saddam Hussein weren't some ringing prophecy of liberty, but the more spontaneous and emotional Arabic equivalent of "Oh SH_T!"
Look folks, that's exactly what I was talking about, regarding the discussions on his last words.
One witness claiming his last words were "Muqtada al-Sadr".
The next one claims his last words were "Palestine is Arab".
This will go on... I guess everyone puts his favourite poltical statement in his mouth (for whatever reasons).
Go figure...
I thought he would have yelled "watch this cannonball!"
BUMP!!!
Associated Press? I want a more trustworthy source.
What he really said was, "I hope Helen Thomas isn't one of my virgins."
:-)
Translation: "KILL JOOOOOS"...
Coming from a guy that killed far more Muslims than he ever killed Jews..
Muslims are funny... even more funny than Blacks and Jews that vote democrat in the United States..
Totally brainwashed.. all of them..
T-H-I-S is wonderful!!!
:-)
I expect we'll be seeing a lot of these touchy/feely "Saddam's Last Words" stories in the coming months. I've already read two this morning. It sounds as though they couldn't shut him up.
He was probably banging on the pearly gates all night begging to enter to ask mercy from THE Jew.

You said -- "Smooth move. As long as you're going to die, make a play for the sympathies of Jew Haters everywhere. And that's a pretty large group. Pretty, pretty large."
And -- for sure -- the Jew-haing Arabs will definitely make Saddam Hussein the *hero* for the Muslim world -- regardless of his crimes against the people in the nation of Iraq.
According to the MSM that I've been reading, it's *much preferable* to be a murderous, authoritarian, U.S.-hating, Jew-hating dictator -- than to liberate those people from the backwardness of Islam and the murderous intent of Saddam. Thus, since we killed hiim (and we did, even if the Iraqis carried it out), this is a "crime against Iraq" for what we've done there and done to Saddam.
INDEED, Saddam Hussein will now become the "rallying cry" of the crazy Muslims terrorists all over the place. They "have their symbol" now.

This is news? Now if he had settled something really important like "tastes great" vs. "less filling" then THAT would be news.
