Is it fair enough to execute Saddam? Make me understand it.?

Answer 1

I don,t know, but he made always troubles even against the arab people and his own people. Maybe was to mutch.....

Answer 2

The biggest sins one can commit are those committed against humanity... As for Saddam talking face to face with some Iraqis who have suffered when he was ruling I can tell you as for some minor examples... "he would send out our prisoners into a field stark-naked and open some gates which led in some fierce hungry dogs and he'd let them eat on their flesh"

He was the one who commanded for the war on Iran killing thousands and millions of people through the process

Oh oh oh and he didn't even take pity on HIS OWN PEOPLE he was the one who commanded for the nuclear raid on IRAQI Kurds, Halibche was completely destroyed, there is a famous photo of a grandfather holding his Granddaughter (a baby) who was immobilized and toxicated trying to save the baby. Those living around those areas still give birth to handicapped or otherwise challenged children due to the effects of the illegal use of Nuclear weapons... on his command!

Was it fair to execute Hitler? Is Saddam any different than Hitler!?... Yeah I guess maybe he is worse...

Answer 3

I'm sick of the stupid Saddam questions. Do you agree with what he did to those people that he killed? Do you agree with him having his own sons killed? Do you agree with him trying to invade another country? Do you agree with the pain and suffering that he put many of the people of that country through? If you agree with any of his actions then your fate should be the same of his. If not, how can you disagree with the taking of his life. He has been judged by the people of this world, and now he's been sent to be judged by god. And let me tell you, his afterlife is going to be no picnic.

Hanging is not cruel, they way they do it. When they hang someone, he falls and when he hits the end of the rope, it snaps his neck and he dies instantly. He does not suffocate or feel pain.

Answer 4

Saddam requested he be executed at gunfire since he was officially part of the military of Iraq, but the court denied him that right.

Answer 5

First, let's examine the question and define the terms. Without doing so, we might as well be asking about favorite flavors of ice cream. He asks not "is it fair" but "is it fair ENOUGH." Afte this he asks us to MAKE him understand it.

The first part indicates he believes that death by hanging isn't sufficiently fair for a genocidal psychopathic convicted mass murderer, as decided by the courts of his own country.

Well this is nearly impossible to answer as he doesn't let us know what makes him feel it is UNFAIR. For instance, would he prefer we tar and feather him first, and then draw and quarter him? and THEN hang him? Then hang him on a pole with his privates hanging out his mouth?

Or would he prefer we apologize to Saddam, give 9 million US Dollars to him and perhaps buy him a penthouse condo in Florida? To which side of the argument aren't we being fair enough?

Mubarak from EGYPT says WE (I believe he meant the U.S., despite the fact the Iraqi government and Iraqi people made the determination of punishment and will carry out the punishment) shouldn't hang him. Does Mubarak weigh in on every decision a foreign government makes and tell them what to do? Perhaps he'd like to weigh in on Dennis Rader, Scott Petersen, Richard Ramirez, or a few months ago on the execution of Danny Rollings, but Mubarak, to my knowledge, was quiet when it came to those hangings. When it comes to the North Korean death Squads, the Iranian Death Squads, Bin Laden's terrorist acts, et. al. he doesn't weigh in.

So what makes this so special?

A better question would be does Saddam have ANY redeeming qualities and would it help science sufficiently to study his behavior in order to figure out what causes a human being to become so inhuman and narcissistic as to believe he can order a genocide and feel he had the international right to do so (just as some Nazi war criminals argued they had the right to do to Germans whatsoever they pleased as long as it was ordered by Hitler).

So... it is FAIR ENOUGH??? Well, seeing as though I'm well read on Muslim law, Hussein's actions require him to be killed, but they don't say in what fashion. The Iraqi's held court, came up with a verdict, let the verdict go through the courts of appeals and the execution was upheld, just like it has been in several of the U.S. states every year. So, becuase factually, it is not our place to say what happens to this genocidal madman, I will the Iraqi's feel it "fair enough." It is THEIR country, not ours, and they feel it fair enough, so Yes. It, by definition, is fair enough for the U.S. to allow a foreign government to punish their former genocidal leader in whatever way their new government sees fit, so long as it goes through their entire trial process and all appeals are heard. Since that was the case, the determination of what is "fair enough" belonged with the Iraqi penal system and they found death by hanging to be sufficient. So Yes. It is FAIR enough.

As to MAKING you understand it, I cannot MAKE you do anything. You must choose to understand it. Or are you asking us to fool around with electrodes within your brain until your brain tells you it understands why it is fair enough? The question is too vague. The man has killed hundreds of thousands publicly, and when including sanctioned government murder by is death squads, that number may reach millions. Perhaps putting his head on a stick in the middle of Baghdad might be more fair IMO, I am not Iraqi, nor will I presume to be able to dictate to Iraqi's what should happen.

MOST of all, however, one thing Iraqi people ALWAYS had to worry about, until last night, was "would Saddam someone wrest control of Iraq away once again? And they knew if they talked and he did, they were as good as dead."

That is no longer a possibility. Iraqi's will never again have to worry about Hussein. Are they living in a stable country with no OTHER worries? Absolutely not. But at least last night, one more threat has been removed.

Thank heavens for that. I know for certain there are Iraqi's in Iraq who will sleep more easily from this day on.

Answer 6

It's better for him that way anyway... Either that or he wastes away his life in prison.... I'll take the end for him, personally..

Answer 7
