well frnd he might have got the right punishment for his deeds but how could you justify the existence of such a court which is itself not under law... he deserves the punishment but definitely lawfully...

I don't want to sound rude or offensive or anything like that, but it sort of seems like a tragic end for Saddam. However, justice should be given to everyone in accordance to their crimes. Though I don't believe murdering and torture is ethical or right, I do believe that Iraq may have been headed in a semi-right way, even if it wasn't towards democracy. I think that it is ironic that we can quickly criticize and ostracize people today for such heinous crimes to a very high degree, but yet we don't do the same for people in the past. The majority of great nations did not become powerful by being weak and passive, no they had to go out, wage wars and do more "bad stuff." The Juliues Ceasar didn't gain power and land just by sitting in Rome, and Genghis Khan surely didn't become a historical figure by riding on his horse alone. Although I don't want to justify Saddam's actions, nations just don't become something by doing nothing. There are many more heinous people in the past who have done even more terrible things, but no one seems to share any sympathy for those. The Aztecs were basically completely wiped out by the Spanish conquistadors, but who is crying for them? I will admit that Saddam did not treat his people and others with kind and respect, and we really cannot make a true distinction between what we in the western society deem fair and those living under Saddam. There is a Chinese proverb that a frog living in a well knows nothing about the world outside the well because the frog can't even fathom about something it has never experienced itself before. So gender roles may seem to put emphasis on males and less power for women, its their society and that's the way they have survived on, unfair as it may appear, if you were to take the frog outside the well, it wouldn't know what to do, same for the gender roles, the very balance and fabirc of their society becomes untangled and becomes chaotic. I digressed too much, but point is, nations need to undergo severe changes in order to become powerful, and Saddam was helping Iraq, in more of a selfish way, though who in power isn't selfish?

Mass medias call out Saddam is the verdict. But what about Bush and Olmert. They also massacre in Iraq, Lebanon and Palestine. Bush and Olmert should also be hang to death.

I don't know how wise is it to burn a house in order to kill a bug. If most of the iraqi people not happy with saddam why USA finding it very difficult to succeed in Iraq. Does it indirectly mean majority of people like saddam.

Genocide is not a new phenomena in the world. Millions of Jews were killed by Hitler, Millions of Indians were killed by British rule in India, and so many to add in the list. Bush is also killing too many muslims in the name of War against terrorism. So it is not new phenomena. Power hungry politicians do that. So we feel as if there is only one dictator in the world and that is saddam. By killing him is world going to be in everlasting peace??????

His countrymen seem to think so. They turned in the verdict.

Bush should get the same verdict.

Close enough. He should be hung from his cajones with piano wire after taking beatings from relatives of his earlier victims.
