Apparently it's going to happen in the next three to four hours.

"The Americans want him to be hanged respectfully," al-Nueimi said. If Saddam is humiliated publicly or his corpse ill-treated "that could cause an uprising and the Americans would be blamed," he said.

You cannot be murdered respectfully, especially strangled to death.

busterb 12-29-2006 06:45 PM

So KR, what would you do with him?

rkzenrage 12-29-2006 06:47 PM

Life in prison. No outside contact. Answering for KR... don't know who that is.

Elspode 12-29-2006 08:57 PM

News reports say that he may be hanged by morning.

Undertoad 12-29-2006 08:58 PM

Any minute now.

King 12-29-2006 09:16 PM

It's been done according to Al Hurra TV; Reuters still waiting for confirmation.

Video footage of Saddam's death here.

He's swung; another milestone passed, and the world shithead count is down by one. It will be emphasized that Iraqis, Saddam's most numerous victims (a butcher's bill of about a million and a half offed for unpopular political opinions, a hanging offense with dictators everywhere, and quite outside Iraqi military casualties, also extensive), were the ones who took him out. Mutterings about the U.S. pulling the strings are, in the end, of no consequence.

Ba'athist spokesmen have threatened to... continue behaving as badly as before should Saddam be hanged.

Lorac 12-29-2006 11:18 PM

The fact that he was hanged with his brother and one other makes it symbolic of the crucifiction of Christ between 2 thieves, since he is a martyr...is there a mathematical equivilent christ=sadam ?

Ah, memories. But a better theme song might be, "For The Love of Money."

Hippikos 12-30-2006 07:29 AM

It will make not one little bit of difference ever since the "We got him". He should have been shot at his capture. Would have caused a lot less problems to come.
