Just in time for the elections...not that Saddam being found guilty has anything to do with who I'm voting for governor of Michigan this Tuesday.

Death by hanging.

I would recommend razor-sharp nylon cord. Saddam would slice real good.

So, How many virgins does Saddam get after he dies??

Piano wire accomplishes the same thing and is biodegradable.

I'd prefer he relax for a spell in the nerve gas chamber.

Well, this should be interesting.

This won't happen anytime soon.

There will be appeals..

The case will be automatically appealed to the Appellate Chamber of the Iraqi High Tribunal. The defense has 30 days to file any motions.

There is no limit to how long the appeals process can take.


many more judges, lawyers and related people mysteriously dying to slow things down.

My take is that Saddam WILL NOT be HUNG!!

He will die an OLD MAN!! We have not seen the last of Saddam. He will be in the news throughout the next President's term!

Although our rivals will cry foul over the timing of the announcement, this is going to give us incredible momentum over the next week and may be the tipping point for a close-run victory and the stabilisation of the old order.

Sincerely,
Sunni insurrectionists

i say they feed him, slowly, into that plastic recycler rig he used to give people rides through.

I agree with all of jack's opinion, save for the not dying by execution..I believe they will get around to it.

No shit, I've got the CIA paid off trial judge in next week's death pool.

No, I'm sure Saddam will hang. Sometime in...hmm..November 2008, perhaps?

Jesse belongs to US, asshole. Quit trying to sell him off.

Everyone please read this to truly understand the absolute fucking retardness of those that are "self proclaimed" Republicans.

Here's a clue Jack. Saddam isnt a radical Muslim and isnt the type of Muslim that would declare Jihad on the United States. Here I will tell you how I feel about Saddam. He's a sick fuck and I could give a shit about him.

Now label me a Liberal and tell me how much I want to spoon with Saddam.

Fucking ignorant child, grow the fuck up and go educate yourself you lazy sack of shitskin.

ftfy

No way. Too many people are questioning this case, and most of Europe is against capital punishment, so you know they will step up to stop it. There will be something that occurs that will stop the proceedings.

And Fuck bush for trying to swing the election his parties way by having the verdict read two days before the election. Shows how desperate they are.

...and this guy couldn't be happier!



Now that the Shiites no longer fear any Saddam inspired reprisal, it's "game on" America.

Dirt Nap!

Yes, and hardly any convicted criminals on Death Row ever get religion at the last minute.

Twat.

Thus cementing your status as the single most idiotic sack of shit in human history. You do make a very compelling argument for compulsory eugencis, though.

Saddam swings in 60 days or less.

bullshit

it will be spring unless someone goes demolay on his ass

The death sentences automatically go to a nine-judge appeals panel, which has unlimited time to review the case. If the verdicts and sentences are upheld, the executions must be carried out within 30 days.

A court official told The Associated Press that the appeals process was likely to take three to four weeks once the formal paperwork was submitted. If the verdicts are upheld, those sentenced to death would be hanged despite Saddam's second, ongoing trial for allegedly murdering thousands of Iraq's Kurdish minority.

It would appear the only wild card here is the case review process.

Still, nothing ever goes the way it was intended over there. If he is hanged within 60 days, I'll be surprised. I wouldn't put a prison break out of the realm of possibility in that lawless shithole.

148 people?

So the 300,000 number turned out to be bullshit? Doesn't seem so evil to me.

It's odd that such a minor 'evil' person would stir up the emotions of people who live on the other side of the planet and have really nothing to do with him - particularly when he hasn't killed any more people than the odd, hitchiker - kidnapper maniac you occasionally read about. And even then not proven by any existant decree.

You'd think he had killed the cat of everyone on this board personally.

148 people killed is what he was tried and convicted of, Phibes.
Nice try.

Not really.



I watched the CNN video of the verdict-reading.
Saddam first refused to stand up, but then did ........ and proceeded to bark and bitch at the judge throughout the few-minute reading of the verdict.
WTF is that all about .... ?

Gag him with a tongue-depressor.

Yes, but if you've killed over 300,000 people - the evidence should be fairly obvious. Why has he only been 'convicted' under dubious circumstances for only 148 people?

Dubious circumstances .... ?

How's that ... ?
Explain yourself.



Where'd you get the 300,000 number from, Phibes .... ?

It's safe to say there are questions regarding interference in the trial which are yet unproven, but should be investigated in the interest of fairness and due process.

And the 300,000 number comes from popular media myth and would be consistant with the level of hatred directed at Hussein by the American population as a genocidal maniac. 148 people is nothing to get excited about.

You explained neither the dubious circumstances nor where you came up with the 300,000 number.

Unless you step up I have no choice but to believe that you're pulling shit out of the air, Phibes.

Well, google 'Saddam Hussein 300,000'.

You will come up with a mountain of articles from a mass cross-section of the mainstream media. Every major periodical is there, accusing Saddam of killing 'roughly 300,000' people.
I believe this has had a massive effect on shaping your perceptions upon the 'evilness' of Hussein when the truth of the matter is - he hasn't really done anything unusually horrible. At least not enough to warrant a 'liberation'.

It's a bit like:

Kim Jung-Il likes Cognac

Slobidan Milosovic killed 250,000 people


And for the trial - read the foreign press, there are issues regarding the dismissal of judges. This should be investigated.

Because they want to get him on something - anything - and then off him as quickly as possible. Heaven forfend we actually get the full story from the horses mouth about what really happened in Iraq, as it would implicate a shitload of people and businesses.

He hasn't done anything unusually horrible .... ?

You sure ... ?

He attempted to take over Kuwaiit.
What would you call that ... ?

Btw, what warranted the 'liberation' was the fact that Saddam was in violation of his cease-fire agreement.
When a cease-fire agreement is violated, guess what ... ?

Go time.

I understand that, but also - by throwing in the suppression of the Shiite uprising, you are implying a crime when there wasn't any. Calling the suppression of an armed insurrection in the employ of a foreign power a crime is disingenuous at best - that is sedition.. it's also myth making and propaganda.

Just call a spade a spade, let's be done with this noble intention shiite.

Iraq maintained that Kuwait was slant drilling into their territory. That is theft, theft causes wars.

Geez, Phibes.

Are you that easily convinced of whatever they say?

Nishlord wrote: Heaven forfend we actually get the full story from the horses mouth about what really happened in Iraq,

Yep.

Read it.

July 25th 1990 dialogue between Saddam Hussein and U.S, Ambassador to Iraq, April Glaspie:

GLASPIE: "I think I understand this. I have lived here for years. I admire your extraordinary efforts to rebuild your country. I know you need funds. We understand that and our opinion is that you should have the opportunity to rebuild your country. But we have no opinion on the Arab-Arab conflicts, like your border disagreement with Kuwait."

While clutching his Quran the ousted leader, trembling and defiant, shouted "God is great!" as the judge handed down the verdict.

Yes, of course. All secular Muslims give a rousing chorus of "Allahu Akbar!!!" when their death sentence is handed down.

Unfortunately, this means another trip to the hospital for the nearest female as you vent your frustration at your pitifully inadequate intellectual endowment. Perhaps a return to leehotti.com is in order. They are more your speed.

What? Is this your retort that Saddam is a radical muslim?

What was the evidence that you believed as fact for Saddam bombing Oklahoma City? He read a newsarticle?

I know why you avoid responding to me, youre fucking retarded.

Fuckin' hippy!

"liberation" ??

I dread the cleanup process from you brain dead pussies.

Marty, are you selling that an Iraq 'border disagreement' with Kuwaiit was grounds for a full-scale TAKEOVER of Kuwaiit .... ?

Mart-gun-nish


Incredibly naive...or just plain stupid.


Unbelievable.....


Hope yours go first....

Dungslinger, 'liberation' was Pheebs word, not mine.
