Bye bye Saddam!

[caseysmom]

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.

[Argranade]

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.....

I am taking a break from self loathing until the end of the year.

The biggest threat to the US at the moment are the PC, right leaning,
massage and meth getting, flag burning, name calling, freakniks that threaten us from within our borders. Did I mention jon carry?


Anything that happens is either GWB's, Don Rumsfelt's, Dick Cheney's or the evil right wing conspiracy's fault...

God,

For the days before 9/11....when we really didn't care about foreign policy.

Speak for yourself....perhaps those years of not caring are the problem.

I am not sure where you see self-loathing in my statement.

Stick to your one-dimensional view of the world if you like....go see another John Wayne movie....it will help....

Well,

I didn't like Sands Of Iwo Jima...he gets killed in that one. (notice that the STRYKER infantry vehicle shares the name of his character in the movie..)

I did like the "Fighting Seabees of the Navy" flick....That was more trucks and blowing up stuff.

Not a fan of his westerns....No wonder the Russians wanted to kill The Duke.


(Actually I am not a big fan of the Waynester....or John Rambo or Jon Claude Van Dumb)

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

Please don't take this the wrong way but this made me crack up. All your posts always seem so mild and sweet it just sounded out of character for you and it made me chuckle

Saddam's execution will be a drop in the bucket as far as hatred for the US. The middle East has been at war with the US for 30+ years. The only difference is that after Sept. 11th we couldn't ignore it any longer.

Great! Then let's do all we can to further inflame the situation! Good idea.... quite a defeatist attitude you have there!

I guess you have a short memory! Or think....like GW & Co. ...if you mention the two together but don't exactly SAY one had to do with the other....

So...if you are not saying one has to do with the other...why did you bring up 9/11 in a thread about Saddam?
