Yup.
Iraq's ethnic and religious divisions, together with the resulting postwar devastation, laid the groundwork for new rebellions within the country. In the aftermath of the fighting, social and ethnic unrest among Shi'a Muslims, Kurds, and dissident military units threatened the stability of Saddam's government. Uprisings began in the Kurdish north and Shi'a southern and central parts of Iraq, but were ruthlessly repressed. In 2005 the BBC reported that as many as 30,000 persons had been killed during the 1991 uprisings. Saddam used illegal chemical weapons to kill Kurd civiliams also.

The number's are'nt the principle hun. It's bad to lose soldiers. Yes. I was one. But a soldier volunteers, knowing he may be called upon to kill, or die. Leaving alone the whole Iraq thing, and focusing on Hussein. argh. The people he had killed were often innocent women, men and children. And done so to strengthen his grip on power. as well as leaders, military etc. I'd consider it an HONOR to die in the fight against something like that.

I think that some Americans are just too ignorant to understand the real issues of the U.S. And even though a person has done so much wrong, someone else has no right to say "that person deserves to die". Maybe he did, maybe he didn't, but in a way I'm pretty sure the number of people Saddam killed is way over the number of civilians who fought to have him dead.

I dont know for sure but considering he was in power for over 20 years I would be willing to bet he was responsible for at least 5 times more deaths and most surely would have upped that had he remained in power.And although we have not found any WMD's who is to say there are not any?Iraq is a big country.And even if there are not any,surely he would have gotten his hands on them soon and the whole world would have been crying"why didnt the U.S. get rid of him?" And then instead of it being our fault for getting involved in an "unjust and illegal war",it would have been our shortsightedness and LACK of action that the world would be now complaining about.

His execution supplies some human beings exhilaration. there is not any real or lasting exhilaration in revenge and execution is definitely a type of vengence. His dying is additionally used as some to rally their followers against the Iraqi government and the U.S. in this sense, his dying is going to be seen as martyrdom. He ought to easily as surely been locked up for something of his existence. He would have even been placed below abode arrest in some family members abode likePol Pot replaced into and a great type of different so-called "butchers". His execution accomplishes his dying. it is definitely all it does.

Hussein has been blamed for the death of up to 2 million Iraqi and Kurdish civilians. The total number killed in his pursuit is well under that. See this website for good stats: http://icasualties.org/oif/

Why does number matter? By killing him, we were doing the exact same thing for which he was being accused. The purpose of crime punishment is to stop somebody from doing wrong again. That's why some criminals are let out of prison. Those who are beyond help are executed (life in prison is pointless and shouldn't be done). Since there is no way for Hussein to ever do what he did again, we should have let him go and given him political asylum like every other former dictator ever. Killing him was pointless, and aimed only at revenge.

He deserved it and stands as an example to the other murdering despots in the Middle East. It is worth the cost. Don't belittle the cost; his trial, conviction and execution are only a small step. Freedom is never free.

unfortunatly people will be killed when apprehending madmen like hussein or bin laden but realistically if it will save our country from these idiots from trying to eventually killing our children and grandchildren maybe it is worth it. people say the war is employing more terrorists....wrong... they were terrorists all along ...they just chose to act ....they prey by brainwashing or by fear and are very comparable to hitler in many aspects. It is bad enough their are some countries that i don't feel comfortable with having nuclear weapons...we don't need anymore

Yes- as a leader he could still lead others inprison.
Talk to the service members. I am tired of those who do not know people on service saying what it is WORTH?
Our Freedom is worth it!
But I guess you live with Mom and Dad and feel secured in your warm little bed everyday- with a monster like Sadan forging our universe.
