the problem with tourturing him to death is that you have to remember that despite all his actions, half of Iraq's pop benefitted from him being in power.



????????...so...because a certain percentage of the population benefited from Saddam's brutal dictatdorhsip, torturing him to death is somehow not to be considered as a method of execution??? What the hell kind of rationale is that??? How about breaking that one down for us...this I've got to hear!!


Not a "certain percentage", the best connected and influencial ones,as well as many common iraqies, and by torturing him to death you distrupt, aggrivate, piss off, etc,. that part of the pop, espeacially since that half of pop had a lot of power during saddam regieme.

So, use your brain. what would have happened in Iraq, with its disturbed pop,(y do u think all the car bombings and terrorist attaks are all bout? they dont celebrate the 4th of July)
essentailly more attaks, more protests, blah blah blah,? imagine all of that plus a hell lot more for tourturing thir leader to death? you get it?

The man said "half"...that's a percentage...you know 50%. No, Saddams favorites were NOT the majority shite popluation where most of the educated/technocrats resided.

Apparently you were off on some other planet during the last five years.
The overwhelming majority of Iraqis would have loved to get their hands around Saddam's throat. They would have loved to see their brutal dictator torutred.

Then y did nt they in the first place?????
If they hated him so much and if the percent of pop that did like him was insignificant, how did he stay in power dumbass???
But thats not the point of this topic discussion.
I spoke wrongly, many would want him tourtured, but i jsut think that makes us like him, death was a quick exit, if it were up to me, i d break him first, phisically and mentally, and spiritually.

Go ahead and keep demonstrating your utter ignorance about Saddam Huessin and his 30 year rule of Iraq. The fact that you are not aware of the many assination attempts to kill Saddam speaks volumes. The fact that you are not aware that Saddam routinely killed off his generals just to thwart possible assination attempts tells us that you know nothing about Saddam. The fact that you do not know that the very first official act that Saddam did after shooting his way into power was to call all of his military & political leaders into an autortorium where they were systematically removed for immediate execution. The fact that you did not know that Saddam never slept in the same place twice and always changed the his caravan routes at the last minute tells us you knowing about Saddam Huessin. Tell us smartass, just how do you expect the terrorized iraqi people to kill Saddam Huessin....many intel experts would love to learn from your vast knowledge & expertise on assinations.

WE did not try & execute Saddam....the iraqi people and their elected gov't tried Saddam, found him guilty of crimes against humanity and THEY executed him.

deportliberals is right. there were several assasination attempts on Sadam. and he would kill his generals just to make sure that no one came into to much power. did you know that he held elections every year as well. he was always voted back into office of course and who ever did vote for him he killed. and in the perade when he was relected if you werent waving and looking like you were haveing fun he would have some one take you into an aly and shoot you in the head no matter your age. listen this man was a monster and i don't see how you could think otherwise. i think he deserved to be hanged and think that there are a lot of other people in this world that deserve the same. but ultimatly that is not my decision to make so i hope that it all works out for the greater good.

Saddam once called out members of congress who he thought had betrayed him and promptly had them shot.

i just heard about another. he had all of his generals come for a confrence and when they were all there they had to watch two men get killed and eaten by several rabid dogs. now i don't know about you but i don't think that is a very Humane way to die.
