Have you seen Saddam's execution video? I've seen it and my God it sent shivers down my spine. Have you seen how tough and collected this man looked?! I couldnt believe this guy knew he was just about to die and still faced it with such pride!! I've always hated Saddam but to be honest I felt very sorry for him. What do you think?

He was sickly to begin with. Can't run a dialisis machine in a cave for too long. I think that all the tapes were from a double from the start. No way to tell if it's him or not.

So !!! the iraqi people dont like the fact that sadam's execution has been televised .
These are the people who video tape and broadcast the beheading of their prisoners .
At least Sadam was a convicted felon , most of the prisoners were people who just happend to be there .
I havent seen any of the videos of Sadam and I dont want to but it must have been an iraqi who did the filming .
Just another incident of this dirty war .

The silliest thing we have ever done is not offer to buy every nuke the starving Russians had when the Soviet Union collapsed. So what if it would cost a bundle? Outbid the bastards who would ship one in a cargo container into NY or LA. Now there are hundreds missing. Lots of rich Russsians. Who whould we hit back? It would take only about 20 "city busters" to give the planet a nuclear winter, world wide. Really upsetting is that we did not pay the Russians for their nukes so they could rebuild their economy. That is what we are doing with the North Koreans. They have nothing to sell except offering not to make bombs for money. Now people have Russian nukes that they will not admit to. There is no "nuclear club" anymore, just the "club nuclear". Just wait. One hope is they have a "shelf life". Maybe that's why the NK bomb was only a "half dud". The second was even smaller an anitmation. Or perhaps they were testing tacticals that would fit on their missles. There goes Japan!

what if he was freed by his own people? and replaced by a person impersonating him (this was done before). Does anyone else think this could be a possibility?

When the rest of the civilized world turns their back on capital punishment, the US continues it's barbaric ways with revenge killings. Why does the US think they need an annual defence budget of half a trillion dollars and are the ones to invade foreign nations? Why does the US feel it has the right to the largest stockpile of weapons of mass destruction yet other nations are not? Why are American such barbarians?

Hahah, yes, I know it's really vague. It's a portraiture taken a few years back by a photographer during times of war of a woman who was never found again. In the middle eastern/ east europe-ish region, I believe. A young woman, tanned, dark hair. Might have been published in a bigshot magazine like National Geographic. Her eyes were so incredibly haunting.

By the little I've given you, can you help me locate the picture?

I do not have a problem with Celebes funding education but schools they support should be available to the whole population.
Apart from being exclusive to black girls only the school has another criteria for entry in that the family from which the student comes has a monthly income of less than R5000.00 ($715.00) per month. There are many colored, Asian and white families that would qualify but they are precluded as they are not black enough.
This thinking is very much in line with the current SA Government policy of BLACK EMPOWERMENT. I have personally had experience of being denied the right to supply businesses and Cities because I do not have a Black Partner, I can an do sell to a black empowered company who will then supply that business or City
This costs the tax payer and consumer plenty as goods supplied have to go through extra hands, and they are greedy because of the enforced supply chain rules.

Surely this is no different to Apartheid.

We are all South Africans. The color definitions and segregation was what the world ostracized us for under the previous government.

It makes my blood boil. I hope a Palestinian Militant takes action against the evil settlers.

I worry that Uncle Sam is helping to pay for these illegal settlements. And, as a US patriot, it really Pisses me off!

P.S. I use the name "jew" as a joke.

Even though his major prediction for 2006 (a tsunami was supposed to strike the USA) never happened. The 2007 prediction, which he says came from God, is about a massive terrorist attack on America sometime after September. He says it may involve millions of people in several major U.S. cities. He says it is possible that "chaos will rule", and that the attack could be nuclear. Based on his past failed predictions, I think the man needs a mental evaluation.

I'm making a documentary for school/contest and I need/want primary source video clips. I know the BBC motion gallery has some really nice footage you can buy, but are there any other places? And where can I get access to historical archives (online or off) that may have information or video?

Any yall seen the Wire on HBO? Well it seems like there is something to the plot in the fictional show about cops hiding murders. The CPD came under fire when a scandal broke out last year about the dissapearing murders that had been reclassified to non homicides. All this wouldnt seem like much, but considering how homicides dropped over night from what was america's muder capital makes you wonder. Then I noticed something funny ealier when I was reading the paper. They admitted murders were up a little from 05, but the murder figure they gave in the article for 05 WAS NOT the same official number CPD released for that year. It was a larger number, thus masking some of the increase from 06. It was also kinda weird how murders went up for the first time in a couple years AFTER the scandal broke. The whole vibe of the city feels different since then. As if their control is failing to what it was back in the day. Peeps just dont even give a *** about them anymore just like the old days.

Considering we were lied to about WMDs and lied to about Al Qaeda terror connections in Iraq. Consider that the administration doesn’t want you to be reminded that it was the Neocons of the time that supplied chemical weapons technology to Iraq and the capability to produce WMD. Weapons that were used on the Kurds. Consider that it’s the opposition Shiites and the INC that supplied the information about the so-called “atrocities” in Iraq under the Bathe regime against Iraqis. Do you think that Saddam Hussein was not executed but politically assassinated on Saturday?
