Saddam....30 days and counting

[zippy-kat]

Isn't that why there is death row for criminals (Dosent it mean they are in jail till they die?)

No, death row is where prisoners are waiting execution.

Edit: Well, in a sense I guess you are right.... they are waiting for death, only it isn't from old age but injection, electrocution, etc.

... they are waiting for death, only it isn't from old age but injection, electrocution, etc.

Except here in the States - where a criminal convicted by a jury of his peers can sit in a cell for decades, going through appeals, and finally die after having lived in prison (at taxpayers' expense) to a ripe old age.
Justice was served quickly. Personally, I don't have any problem with the "death sentence", because I believe in an after-life: you can't destroy a soul's energy, it just gets transformed. Sure, Saddam has to say bye-bye to this world, but he'll manifest somewhere else - like standing for judgement before the all-powerful Creator.
