I don't think he shouldve died at all. No one deserves to die no matter how many people he or she has hurt, lied to, betrayed, or even killed. God gives us life, he is the one who should take it away. Many people are happy because of this, but many are not. We just created more enemies. And why did they kill him during a Muslim holiday? It makes the whole situation worse for the people who are mad that he died. Bush did the same thing Saddam did... killed. Saddam only killed about 140 people. bush killed thousands. We are doing the same thing, killing innocent people, raping woman and children, going into Iraqis houses because we feel like it. To wrongs don't make a right!! We killed THOUSANDS just to get to ONE man. You don't see bush being hanged do you! Besides do you know how many dictators there are and you don't see us going and taking them and hanging them when they aren't even citizens of the united states!! Our country is just as messed up as the next!! All the billions of dollars that Bush put into finding this one man could have sheltered many homeless people or fed there empty stomachs with food! We have no right to go into a country, destroy it, kill innocent people, and change all there customs... what now??? We found him right, he died right, what now!! Its the same bull we are still over there fighting... and it will continue like this for a long time.

Well, this was Iraq's doing.. not ours. I think it should have just been done in a painful way... because those of us on Earth do have a responsibility to uphold our morals and not let him bring such hell out of people up until the moment of his death. Some might say what moral is there in an execution... but I believe in an eye for an eye and he couldn't even cover that because he had only one life to have taken from him in comparison to the thousands he took.

There are alot of ways Saddam could have died, that would have been appropriate for him. But he died because he was convicted of his crimes - he was a criminal. He could repeat he was a martyr, but everyone knew - he was a criminal. Hanging was probably faster and easier than what he deserved. But he will pay appropriately for his actions for eternity now. Now God is the judge and he will pay appropriately. I don't think where he is at, is as easy as being hanged. And that is forever.

I think that they should have made him have a long, painful death. Possible thoughts, burning him slowly at the stake, drowning him, slowly stabbing him, electric chair, and many more. I like the slow death idea for him. Of course, not even the death of Saddam Hussein could pay off for the number of lives loss because of him.

It would have been great to have seen a public destruction of his body while watching him yell in pain, but a hanging was still good enough for me. I just hope something went wrong during the hanging and he was stuck there chocking to death and vomiting blood for a while. If I had it my way he would have been very slowly dipped in a pool of hydrochloric acid while forced to eat pure sodium which would ulcerate his mouth and burn his tongue off.

Taxpayers shouldnt' be paying more than they already have for Saddam. I'm glad he's been executed and the world celebrates! I've found out that BBC will broadcast the taping of his death in one hour from now!

By natural causes. I don't believe a human being has the right to end another person's life. It's the height of hypocricy to tell him he did the ultimate evil by killing someone, so we're going to do the ultimate evil back to him because, um, well, because we're almighty enough to make that decision about another human being.
He should have been placed in solitary confinement in a small cell, given just enough food to keep him alive, with no distractions, no luxuries, no contact with other human beings. Death was the easy way out for him.

Yes, he needed to die.
But some of his religious co-believers will use it to declare him a martyr and use his death as a rally-point for more violence.
Not, of course, that Islam , as we all know, isa violent religion. G-d forbid my comments should promote more of the riots and killings Muslims used to show they're not violent!!

Yes, but it should have been on a pay per view basis with the revenue going to the families of the soldiers that died for us.
