I met a traveller from an antique land
Who said: "Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. Near them on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown
And wrinkled lip and sneer of cold command
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed.
And on the pedestal these words appear:
`My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings:
Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair!'
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare,
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

The handover was successful because, with so many GPS devices shoved up his butt, there was no way he could "wander off".

CNN International is now reporting that there are "conflicting reports" about whether Hussein has actually been handed off.
Sounds like wishful reporting on their part, anybody find anything on who is reporting that he hasn't been handed over?
To: Steve_Seattle
Sundown, though I don't know if it's actual sundown or a "standardized" 6 pm. They use the Muslim definition of day.
Saddam, if he hasn't left the living, now has no more than 21 hours, 15 minutes to live.

"reaction to the execution by Muslims"
How many times in the last three years have the MSM told us that Muslims don't like us because we have allegedly supported dictators in the Middle East? Well, now we helped get rid of the worst one, and they are still mad? Were we lied to? Of course.
To: mewzilla
And if executions are forbiden during the upcoming Eid, then does this mean there won't be any bombings and shootings conducted by Muslims? You say EID and I say IED,
EID, IED
Let's call the whole thing off.

Saddam's lawyer isn't denying that he's been handed over...in fact he assures us that Saddam will be smiling going to the gallows.

Spare Saddam
By most codes of justice, his execution would be fitting retribution for a brutal life. But it won't extinguish the fires of sectarian hatred any more than it will relieve the pain of his victims
By ROMESH RATNESAR Posted Friday, Dec. 29, 2006
By the time you read this, Saddam Hussein may be dead. When Iraq's Supreme Court on Tuesday rejected Saddam's appeal of his death sentence, the tyrant's luck finally ran out. That there would be no reprieve was apparently evident to Saddam himself, who penned a farewell letter to his former subjects in which he seemed to welcome a martyr's death while adding that if he somehow managed to escape the noose, that would be OK too. "If [God's] decision is postponed, then He is most merciful," the letter said. In all likelihood, the world will never see him again.
To anyone interested in holding the world's worst despots accountable for their crimes, the Iraqi High Tribunal's conviction of Saddam for the 1982 massacre in Dujail should be cause for celebration. And considering that the 148 people killed in Dujail amount to only a tiny fraction of the thousands who died under Saddam's murderous rule, it's perverse to claim that capital punishment did not fit the magnitude of his crimes. By most codes of retributive justice, execution is the only worthy end to such a brutal life. But it is also a mistake.
