2 years from the time he was captured is not "unseemly haste"
For crying out loud.
I guess some people would complain if they were hung by a new rope.
Right, a delay, so he could be rescued in a release attempt. No thanks. The reaction of the Iraqis is all I need. They're celebrating; every other bleeding heart didn't have to live under him. He's gone and I say, Good riddance.
Yawn...
Let's see......what are they going to do about this "lynching?" Bomb Iraq into the stoneage? Invade?? (right, France will lead that charge). Turn it over to outside terrorists to run (they are already trying to do that). Just what do the moral jesters going to do? They stand by while people are dying for freedom. Screams of freedom from millions, going unheard in the US Congress. Give us handouts from millions of illegals, heard clear and on point by the US Congress.
I hope they start killing each other off.
I kind of keen on getting some of these Iraqi judges on our criminal appelate courts.
>was rushed through by the Iraqi government despite American requests for a delay.<
Really? From what the media is saying, we FORCED the Iraqis to execute him so fast.
Oh my, these things always happen in threes. James Brown, Gerald Ford and now Saddam.
I think what has the Commie libs all riled up is that they were hoping to have Saddam testify at their Bush "war crimes" trials. I guess that plan isn't going to work out. They're going to need a Plan B.
I never saw so much angst over the execution of a mass murderer. What a hypocritical farce.
During the entire second world war, the NYTimes made six mentions, on inside pages, of what Hitler was doing to the Jews. When Saddam was murdering his countrymen, the other countries were happy to do business with him. Today, the Iranians regularly hang, by strangulation, women who have been raped. Is there a world-wide outcry? Nah.
Typical British media.
What's the point of mounting "outrage" in Europe? He's dead Jim...no amount of outrage is going to change that.
And just WHO is outraged? Insurgents? The Guardian? The Beeb? Seems like the only people who should be relevant to the discussion is the Iraqi people, and I don't think they believe it was anything resembling a 'lynch mob'.
Sadamn should have been hung in 1991 for the murders and rape that he ordered against the citizens of Kuwait! He was living on borrowed time given to him by the liberal do-gooders of this world.......
The greater world won't miss him.....
must be somebody down at CBS whose knickers are in a knot that he was'nt consulted about when this event should take place......
I think all rational and irrational people would agree that we are much better off without this guy.
Unfortunately, there's always somebody out there who wants us to feel sorry for a mass murderer.
Strange, my contacts 'over there' said the Iraqi's were celebrating in the streets. I believe those who were protesting didn't live under Sadam's rule, those who did are rightly celebrating his death.
