thebluenose Posted December 30, 2006 Report Share Posted December 30, 2006 now all we need to do is wait for our troops to leave before another saddam takes control then we can forget about iraq for good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac Posted December 30, 2006 Report Share Posted December 30, 2006 I would love to be able to put Iraq behind me, but owing to certain experiences during the 1st Gulf War, it is an impossibility. Many good men have died there in an attempt to bring peace to troubled and poorly led people. Personally, I take a small measure of comfort from the fact the man is finally dead, but it is a matter of 15 years too late. We were initially sent to remove Iraqi forces of occupation from Kuwait, and the UN resolusions stopped at a fairly non-specific line. We had the impetus and the moral excuse to continue and remove the man from power with overwhelming force, but it wasn't to be. So many deaths since the 90/91 could have been avoided, it is just a little difficult for me to raise a smile. ATB Mac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fcssl Posted December 30, 2006 Report Share Posted December 30, 2006 Its never nice to see a life end...however, I think this is the exception to the rule. He caused misery, chaos, pain and upset for so long and thought that he was above the law and was untouchable. The only downside is that the families of those tortured, murdered and dumped in mass graves may never find out exactly where their loved ones are - however at least they will be able to live a free life themselves now that this truely evil person has departed.

fcssl Posted December 30, 2006 Report Share Posted December 30, 2006 Hmmm, okay. Anyway, while the western news agencies mull over whether to show what happened, here is the latest from the Arabian channels. This clip shows Saddam in a white shroud after being executed earlier today. Click here to watch. It is nothing gruesome or twisted, but this is the real thing apparently. Only click if you want to watch! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted December 30, 2006 Report Share Posted December 30, 2006 I want to see the whole execution myself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fcssl Posted December 31, 2006 Report Share Posted December 31, 2006 Well, there is a leaked camera phone recording of the whole execution. I have just watched it, and it is available widely on the internet, however that version does not really show much. It opens with Saddam being shown to an elevated stage. There is then some sort of reading, possibly the right and reason of hanging, then the noise and a quick glimpse of Saddam falling throught the trap door, then the screen goes blank. It continues for about half a minute until a few 'strobe' photographic flash type lighting gives very quick images of Saddam swinging (and not in the way which his wife would probably have enjoyed!) It is available on www.filecabi.net if anybody wants to see it...however, I am not going to be posting a direct link in case anybody 'accidentally' clicks on it.

CraccerC Posted December 31, 2006 Report Share Posted December 31, 2006 ^ yes but thats no excuse and just goes to show how pathetic the american government is. but i was only kidding i feel sadam was wrong and that he should have been killed... i just wanted to make my bush point which i stand by Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaron Posted December 31, 2006 Report Share Posted December 31, 2006 ive just saw the video and he suddenly drops, theres blackness for around a minute then shows you him hanging there wide eyed and looking up, dead like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louis Posted December 31, 2006 Report Share Posted December 31, 2006 Just seen the tv.. this video is being criticised as it shows Saddam being goaded by his executioners (they are chanting someones name who is an Iraqi militiant), Saddam says "go to hell" and one of executioner says "that's where you going". the trapdoor is then opened. Btw... that's serious. not joking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamcoffey Posted January 1, 2007 Report Share Posted January 1, 2007 (edited) well sadly this execution is going to be shown by Bush as some kind of symbol for peace in Iraq. Which is an complete joke, as it is no doub going to cause more mass brawls, riots and death. Controversial, but Iraq was alot safer for the people when Saddam was there, the groups were kept in line, but now there is no control. Dont get me wrong, i know Saddam was an evil man and deserved to die, but WE put him there, we were happy to let him stay there and kill people until it suited us. You cant fight terrorism with war, war is terrorism. Edited January 1, 2007 by adamcoffey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CraccerC Posted January 1, 2007 Report Share Posted January 1, 2007 exactly mate...spot on innocent people have lost their lives because of both bush and sadam... but atleast people in their homes were safer now theres war, rebellions and still people who supported sadam ... at the end of the day it was none of americas business... and although some sort of intervention may have been necessary, theyve gone about it terribly and as you say you cant fight terrorism with war, because right now millions of innocent iraqis are gettin terrorised and for what?

Mac Posted January 1, 2007 Report Share Posted January 1, 2007 To my mind, when we (humanity) all argue and fight over shit like this, I compare it to flea's fighting as to who owns the dog they live on. ATB Mac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well put Mac...think about the only thing that would make the magnificently insignificant human race put all this crap aside would be an alien invasion, then maybe we'd realise the futility of it all.

Pat Posted January 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2007 The rich martian's would prob dupe us Mike & Earth would make way for an Intergalalctic highway. Oh well - Progress. On The witch - Oddly I felt very little emotion, either for or against & just felt for the poor prix [both civillian & Military] over there trying to get on with daily life getting there asses blown up everday.

fcssl Posted January 2, 2007 Report Share Posted January 2, 2007 Not exactly a sympathetic view point, but this has just emerged on the net in the last couple of hours...take it for what it is I guess... Spoof ESPN coverage of Saddam's Hanging This spoof video, nothing too graphic, nothing too nasty, but a little off none the less...you decide and form your own opinion.
