Tomorrow wouldn't be soon enough for me. However there is an appeal process and the attorneys will file an appeal:

"Saddam's chief lawyer Khalil al-Dulaimi condemned the trial as a "farce," claiming the verdict was planned. He said defense attorneys would appeal within 30 days.

The death sentences automatically go to a nine-judge appeals panel, which has unlimited time to review the case. If the verdicts and sentences are upheld, the executions must be carried out within 30 days.

A court official told The Associated Press that the appeals process was likely to take three to four weeks once the formal paperwork was submitted."

I won't believe it until it's done. I look for someone to try and break him out or something. I sure won't be shedding any tears when he's gone.

My kids were asking me last night why anyone would be against the death penalty. I honestly don't know how I feel about the death penalty, things are not black and white for me...sometimes I wish they were.

But in this case it sure makes me in favor of it.

I don't know what to think of this, kinda weird.

I don't feel happy or sad.

Good riddance. He has been a destructive ruthless plague and the sooner he is gone the happier I'll be.

If his execution does indeed spark a civil war as many commentators are predicting, then I would have to say that, on balance, I would prefer to see him locked up for the rest of his natural life.

I am afraid. There is no good outcome to this situation. My husband told me first thing when I came downstairs this morning. Saddam is a evil man who should not be able to do his evil any longer.

My fear is that to hang him will fuel more hatred of the US. Already on the news they report anti-US demonstrations...even though the trial was ostensibly Iraqian....it is perceived by the Sunni Muslims to have been orchestrated by the US.

I am very afraid.....

His only 'friends" are the Sunni faction , the People in Tikrit and his real home town.


If we all remmeber, SH had nothing to do with the terrorism and wasn't a real threat to take over the title of "Iraninan Idol" or OBL's best buddy.


Had he been a major player in the Middle East his name would be used by all the little groups to rid Iraq of the 'infidels'.

His departure from the seat of power was great for the AH death squads-the blood hungry idiots that had no place in SH's dictatorship....

Some people in the Middle East hate us anyway,

He won't be missed and people will forget how to spell his name soon after his leaving the planet.

LOL,

If you all were insomniacs, you too would get your news as it happens!

...and anyone looking for a (or another) reason to hate the US and the West.....

[elizabethann]

I just wish it was a televised hanging so I could see that bastard swing.

[WolvesRawk]

Bye, Sadam! Send us a postcard from HELL!

I believe it won't work to our advantage at all, but it's just another reason
for the Islamic extremists to stir up the crowds in anti-US riots & killings.
Not like they don't already have enough reasons. I been afraid the whole
time since Bush became President. Hopiny that Bush & company don't mess
things up so much, we might not ever get the chance to make more positive
changes for this country.
