Saddam's execution.....

Three thoughts....

  1. Saddam deserverd the death penalty. He deserved to die for his crimes. But his trial made a mockery of the new Iraqi justice system, and his lynching looked like a bad fraternity ritual. But what is done is done.....I hope the Kurds can find some solace in the fact he is dead, and that they did not get their day in court.
  2. Some very interesting reading from an Iraqi perspective.
  3. I watched to video; it is difficult to watch someone die. Let me explain....Saddam's atrocities have not touched me directly, so I cannot temper the difficulty of watching someone die with emotions of true anger and vengeance. having said that, here is the link: Cell phone video.
