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..."

Ever heard of "an eye for an eye"?
And yes, the whole world is watching. And taking notes. Do we care if they "like" us? Not really. I, personally, hope they fear us.
Any truth to the rumor that Senator Harry Reid will be cancelling his Peru trip to attend the funeral?

We have a lot to learn from the Iraqi justice system.
Justice is done. Good.
I wonder how many of the Dem leadership will be flying to Iraq for the funeral. Probably more than will attend Ford's.
