Saddam Video of Body after Hanging (New 1-8-07)

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..."

CNN is a pornographic term in my house!

We all love watching Hannity outclass Colmes every day.

CNN (Cooper) saying video and still pictures were taken and should be released shortly

That CNN will view them first and show what they think is appropriate for TV

Have also reported SEVERAL times about the dancing around his body

As I pointed out on the other thread. They may be dancing but they also have the American flag hung upside down.

Prayers for this misguided soul and for all of his victims. Hopefully he repented of his horrible sins in his final moments.

In an effort to "disqalify" the Dearborn Iraqis, one of the CNN talking heads commented they were mostly Iraqi-Christians.

Hanging is NOT "barbaric" at all; I can think of many infinitely MORE barbaric ways to kill criminals...all of which have been practiced by civilized societies.

Saddam was really escorted on to a CIA jet (paid for by Halliburton and Unical) and sent to Kinshaha or Belarus.

This is just a cover story. They actually threw him down the well and he is now going to come back as the mahdi at the stroke of the new year.

Nope, I just expressed exactly what I sense. And that "sense" is pretty accurate.

I hope Anderson doesn't mind, but I'll wait for a REAL news service to publish them uncensored.

Another DU "insight:"

I feel sick. Is there any going back? Can we ever redeem our reputation? We have gone way over the clef on this one. How insane can our government and media get?

Way over the clef.

How long do you think it will be before Bob Woodward claims he interviewed Saddam as he was swinging on the end of the rope?

Why Hell? Has he not probably been in the presence of Christians for months? Is tere not a chance that they have shared the Good News of salvation? Why not hope that he is in the loving embrace of God?

"The vilest offender who truly believes, This moment from Jesus a pardon receives..."

Well, I guess it might be possible, but based on his actions, I doubt it. I'll let God sort this one out.

Today was Paybacks Part I. I'm hoping that we speed production of the sequel where all the family business is taken care of in the appropriate manner. That means that Barzini (Khameni) and the rest of the persian pimps have to be disposed of.
