I say no.
What Saddam did was dreadful - unforgivable.
Murder and torture are heinous crimes.
Is it now OK for us to send out the message that it is OK for society to murder him?
I think not.
If it is wrong for Saddam to commit murder, then it is wrong for everyone.
No one has the right to take life.
Yes, give him hardship for the rest of his life.
Make sure he never commits such acts again.
But make sure too that the hyprocitical message is not sent out that murder is acceptable in any circumstances.
I would like to hear the views of other Yahoo Answers members, but I won't be changing my views.
Just for the record, I am Irish and a christian, and have no love of Saddam Hussien or his appalling crimes.
