People have been executed for a lot less so I say yes.

Its up to the people of Iraq. But for what he has done in my mind he does deserve it, a cruel man!

Also if he was just kept in prison would you not have every terrorist demanding him to be released by kidnapping, bombs, etc which would end up in a lot of innocent people dying!

Only if Bush is 'executed' with him.

If found guilty, maybe a nice punishment would be a cool medley of the nice jobbies his sons specialised in

Oh no it would not be a death sentence :eek: Don't we all oppose the death penalty here?

Just some lovely Saddam specials. Finger nails first. Then toe nails. That's 2 times 10 lovely moments. Plyers to the tongue me thinks. Ah no lets put some electrical current through the genitals first and anal rape with a concrete brick seems cool...

Please disappear you ignorant c*nts that oppose the American intervention in Iraq :mad:

f*king americans

given half the chance saddam hussein wil use the same justifcation for the acts comitted on behalf of "his campaign" as Bush has.
Bush claims he is protecting the nation, saddam says the same.
Bush calls saddam a tyrant for executing and punishing "criminals" in his country, yet Bush does the same, albeit he does his publically and through his own convoluted "legal system".
there is little difference between the two.
Bush stands upon a pillar and claims he has saved thousand of Iraqi's from saddams dictatorship and given them freedom. How many millions in America have been searching for the same liberties?

Well if he dies...there goes the threat of him , making people more comfortable thus they don't need as much protection from terror and they become more independent....which then causes the US government to lose power/control over people and not let the govermnent have the opportuntity to make the world into a "Police State" ....why do you think the US government protect all the bad guys?....

think about it

thats just silly, firstly, he has already been removed and secondly the threat of terror isn't imbedded in one man named saddam hussein.

..who incidently has claimed during his court hearing that he has no fear facing the death penalty..








..as long as David Beckham is taking it.

Anyone seen the clip of S.H and his son loweringn people, feet first, into a meat grinder, or feeding people tied up on the floor to hungry dogs while they sat drinking wine and laughing?

Anyone seen all the curdish families dead on the street and in their homes, clutching their dead babies after the chemical attacks?

This guy deserves very 'special treatment' but not to be easily offed.

Yes I believe that he should be killed because of what he done to all those thousands of victims that suffered athis hands. But i also belive thathe should be put in a room with a few of the family members of the victims that he killed and find out how it feels to be on the recieving end. KILL HIM NOW.

Lemming

Don't execute him, don't torture him.

Just throw him in a cell and forget about him. It'll be a far worse fate than any notions of bloodlust can provide. And you'll not have either martyred him nor proven yourself to be no better than he.

ChipZilla

Well, he is being tried in a kangaroo court by US yes men, so the chop/bullet/stoning/whatever will just be a formality.

Sleepy

I'd be for shooting him because the bullet would cost a lot less than life imprisonment. That said, it would merely martyr him leaving him as a poster-child akin to Che Guevara/Bobby Sands/Any other nut you wish to include...

adonis

what about killing blair? it would be much more fun to see that silly grin he has melt into the flames.

Bobby Sand fought for the rights of Irish people and is a true Martyr to Ireland. He should in no way be classed in the same way as Sadam.

Batbat

he is be passed around as a political pawn, American foreign policy has shown to the world that it has no respect for international law or human rights. Therefore Im not surprised that this court is a kangaroo court.

In fairness Saddam has done terrible things to the Iraqi people, but so has US

thats because you're looking at him from an irish point of view, sadam would be a martyr for the suni muslims and people in iraq not for us.

do you have these clips, ive never heard of them or seen before and we all surely would if they existed, since they really make another good case for going to war. that sounds like b ollocks to me.

i believe its hypocritical to put people to death for the crime of putting people to death, sadam put people who broke the law to death in his country just like america do, and just like bush did as govenor of texas.

Thats because i am an Irish person and proud to say that bobby Sands was Irish as well. And he died for the good of the Irish People, While trying to free Ireland from the hands of the British. He did not however commit the crimes and treat his people the way Sadam did. He willingly gave his life for what he believes in---A United Ireland. He is in no way the same as Sadam.

damnyanks

The point given to you just flew way over your head? Its nothing to do with what Sadam or Bobby did. Its who their deaths would appeal too. He is not viewed in the same light as with you to others. Just like Sadam is not viewed in the same light as you and whoever would make him a martr

lyonsy

. He did not however commit the crimes and treat his people the way Sadam did.

HELLO! he was an IRA terrorist, thats why he was in jail. im as patriotic about ireland as the next person and i admit that what he did while in jail took balls but he and his comorades did commit many many murders and atrocities against his people ie the people of northern ireland, just like sadam... but thats beside the point:

He is in no way the same as Sadam.

that's not what i said, i was suggesting that martyrdom only exists with people onthe same side as the "martyr", or in some cases with neutrals, for example the brits didnt view bobby sands as a martyr.
To spell it out for you: Sadams supporters will view him as a martyr if he is executed

You forgot about his other method of intense whipping until the victim is covered in cut and sores, followed by lowering them into a vat of raw sewage. The victim is then left to die slowy from the infections.

Although I do think his crimes warrant it, I don't think execution is the right idea, with the risk of turning him into a martyr. I'd say put him in a prison and hook up a Big Brother style system of camera's to show how pathetic and broken he is.
That would really sap the morale out of his followers.

logonmar

I presume that all of you that are in favour of executing Saddam would favour the return of capital punishment to Ireland?
Surely it can't be the case that it is OK to kill people in other countries but not in Ireland.

At this stage I'm now quite interested in when exactly those favouring death penalty want it to be applied.
After 1 murder, 6 murders, 500,000 murders?

While we are at it and in favour of killing criminals perhaps there is scope for us to introduce stonings for adulterers also?
