QUOTE Saddam Hussein sentenced to death by hanging BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- The Iraqi High Tribunal in Baghdad on Sunday sentenced a combative Saddam Hussein and two other defendants to death by hanging for a brutal crackdown in 1982 in the Shiite town of Dujail. Despite a curfew, Iraqis in Baghdad spilled out into the streets to celebrate the verdict. But protests were held in Saddam Hussein's hometown of Tikrit. • Saddam Hussein receives death sentence for his role in 1982 crackdown • Appeal is automatic; if sentence upheld, execution must be within 30 days • Crowds jubilant in Shiite areas, angry in Hussein's hometown • Iraqi prime minister: "Hussein era is now in the past" http://edition.cnn.com/2006/WORLD/meast/11...ddam/index.html This post has been edited by jonathan83: Nov 5 2006, 09:32 AM -------------------- ![]() |

I turned on the news trying to find it (even fox news) and they weren't even covering it. Edit: nevermind, just saw them talk about it. |

It's a good election move. Just gotta wonder if it will counter the veritable shitstorm the Republican Party spent 5-6 years creating for itself
I wouldn't be surprised if the repubs maintained control. I truly wouldn't. What with diebold and all. -------------------- ![]() |

Not that I feel sorry for the worthless pig fucker, but the timing/sentence seem suspect. It is def a political stunt, then again the bastard reaped what he sowed
-------------------- A psychotic world we live in. The madmen are in power. How long have we known this? Faced this? And--how many of us do know it? Perhaps if you know you are insane then you are not insane. Or you are becoming sane, finally. Waking up. I suppose only a few are aware of all this. Isolated persons here and there. But the broad masses... what do they think? All these hundreds of thousands in this city, here. Do they imagine that they live in a sane world? Or do they guess, glimpse, the truth...?

Let's ignore the political chess piece and focus more on the fact that this mother fucker is gonna die.
I hope they break into the place where he's being hung and drag his body into the streets, civil war breaks out between the sunni and shiite and we pull our forces out only to drop the biggest nuke bomb ever made and cause a nuclear holocaust that eliminates 5,999,999,999 people. AND THEN I GET TO RULE THE EARTH. -------------------- "Ah, y'know it's funny, these people they go to sleep, they think everything's fine, everything's good.

I would be really suprised if he gets hung.
or ever even executed. more likely they'll appeal and he'll have a morning variety/talkshow on al-jazeera opposite regis's timeslot. |
