This way, Saddam has become a HERO for Muslims. What type of message is being sent to the Muslims worldwide by this barbaric action on such a happy occassion of celebrating Eid?

This, like a lot other situations, is a win less circumstance. You cannot appease every group of people/beliefs. All you can do is do the right thing. Trying to make everyone happy is impossible.

Saddam Hussein prevented 300,000+ Iraqis from celebrating the present 'Eid al-Adha by killing them for no reason. Why should his life be spared? Were his actions and those of his government not the more barbaric?
The vast majority of Muslims are smart enough to not make Saddam Hussein into some kind of hero.

Uh, no. Guess you haven't heard Saddam was hanged this morning before dawn. Besides, it wasn't up to Bush at that point. I read that someone (can't recall who, maybe Bush?) made a point to say Saddam was out of the USA's hands now. The Iraqi tribunal found him guilty of unspeakable crimes (and he WAS indeed guilty). So why should he be allowed to celebrate anything? It would've been better if the people he'd killed had been alive to celebrate Eid. Mass muderers forfeit their rights. That's who you want as a Muslim hero? Did you forget the "hero" was found guilty of killing other Muslims?

President Bush had no control over when they hung Saddam that was the new Iragi government. I wouldn't say it was a barbaric action either, Saddam should've been killed a long time ago for what he did. Massive killings, killing people who he felt threaten by and invading other countries like Kuwait. Saddam was a mad man. He lived in riches while his own people lived in poverty.

Read the news, it's too late. Anyway, Pres. Bush didn't decide when to put Saddam down his own people decided the date/time.

You must think Muslims are idiots. Saddam was no "hero," and Muslims know that better than anyone.
And what makes you think Bush set the date of Saddam's execution? He had nothing to do with it.

in case you notice the worldwide fullyyt by non secular specs. then no longer in basic terms the president of the US yet anybody in capability would seem to be fiddling with no longer in basic terms muslim, yet all faith's emotions.yet that already places you in a particular class because of the fact no longer anybody perspectives the worldwide as a playfield.That pronounced, which Bush do you advise, the senior or the junior? Any decision of this question would point out an indictment, no longer sentencing.

Bush turned him over to the Iraqis. The Iraqis hung him - and it's their holiday and it was their decision as to the timing.
