He was dead wrong. :)
Pass the crying towel...I'm sooo shook up over those beastly Iraqis killing poooor Saddam Hussein. Boo hoo..
Very good -- He was surprised that he was not going to escape justice.
"It also emerged yesterday that Mr Maliki sought final authority for signing the death warrant from Iraq’s Shia Muslim hierarchy in the holy city Najaf"
that's the problem here.
Don't meglomaniacs think that the world is their own playground? I'm guessing that this monster believed that the world couldn't go on without him.
They can still use that, isn't Obama's middle name Hussein?
they don't need Saddam for that - they've already got a Rodham/Hussein ticket for 2008 - with Obama.
As long as Iraq is a sectarian government, they are a threat to all non-muslim countries. Not as much a threat as they were, but a threat. For non-muslims there is no acceptable sectarian government.
Plus, are the girls pieces of work, or what? Miss their nice old pop? May he and Allah be joined!
??The two sisters, who were widowed when Saddam ordered the execution of their husbands for attempting to defect, now live in exile in the Jordanian capital, Amman.??
Sometimes it's just too easy.
Saddam must have watched too much American T.V. He mistakenly thought that he'd escape justice like most murdering thugs in the U.S. do.
Cry me a river.
You guys are right, using the middle names it's RODHAM HUSSEIN.
All indications suggest that the USA wanted him to to be tried, convicted and ultimately hanged, for the even larger "crimes against humanity" he committed against the Kurds.
It seems a bit odd "they, meaning the Shiites, settled so quickly for his death for a mere 148 individuals, when the primary trial was ongoing for tens of thousands of Kurds.
I don't pretend to understand their "reasoning", but in all this talk of Sunni vs Shiite, little seems to be said of the Kurds.
I wonder why?
I have no love lost for any of the Muslim sects, but the Kurds must be seated prominently at the first table in Iraq.
IMHO, they deserved first dibs on his "execution".
"The grisly footage." I didn't find it grisly at all; it just looked like a hanging usually looks, rope around the neck and then a drop through the trapdoor. No sympathy for his daughters, including the wonderfully named Raghead.
Probably arranged marriages so they didn't give a crap about the smelly men daddy rid them of, as long as he still took care of them. Now that daddy's dead, brothers are dead, and hubbies are dead, those two have no men to support them. Sucks to be them in the Arab world.
Frankly, I'm delighted both of them will be gone shortly, and I don't think too many folks are shedding a tear, either.
I thank them for their past service.

I agree. I have seen much worse deaths.
