After watching the footage of Saddam's "execution," it made me think. They said he wasn't hooded in the customary manner that they hang people in, and they said that they didn't receive the actual footage of him being hanged... how do we know he was actually executed.
So, my question being: Is it all just a hoaxe?

ALSO= even though there has been another leak of a viedo, it still doesn't show him being hanged because the camera turns away. Still keeping me suspicious.

That's not funny. Saddam Hussein's last minutes were as follows:
Saddam (as the noose is put around his neck): Ya Allah (Oh God).
Someone in the audience: Mercy be on those who pray for Mohammed and the household of Mohammed. (Everyone repeats the prayer, including Saddam.)
Executioner and two people in the audience: And hasten his return (the Mehdi), curse his enemy and grant victory to his son, Muqtada, Muqtada, Muqtada! (This is a common Sadrist chant.)
Saddam (smirking): Muqtada?
NSA Muwafaq Al-Rubai'i: To Hell!
Saddam: (laughing)
Prosecutor Munqidh Al-Far'awn: Please, no.
Muwafaq Al-Rubi'i: Long live Mohammed Baqir Al-Sadr!
Someone in the audience: To Hell!
Saddam (solemnly recites the Shahada prayer): I witness that there is no god but Allah, and that Mohammed is the messenger of Allah. I witness that there is no god but Allah, and that Mohammed is the- (trap door is opened).
Audience: Prayers for Mohammed and the household of Mohammed.
Someone: The tyrant has fallen. May Allah's curse be upon him.
Someone: No. No. Stay back.
Someone: Leave him for 8 minutes. Don't take him down.
Someone: Everyone. Stay back.

Ok, first off, the guy that answered you first is an idiot, plain and simple. Disregard his long, blown out drivel, because he is quite obviously on drugs, or just stupid. He can't be taken seriously.
Now, as far as your question goes, the guy's dead. It's all over the news. There was no body double, there was no conspiracy. The guy was hanged.
You keep saying "They". Who's "They"?
I guess it's easiest if you answer this question yourself - Do you really think America would go through all the crap and expense to fake Saddam's death? Why? What did he have left to offer us?
The answers, at least the smart answers, are 1) Hell no. 2) no reason. and, 3) nothing.
He wasn't worth a hoax of the magnitude you are suggesting.
The fact is, he's dead. And that is good. One less to deal with, I say.

According to Iraqi television reports he was hanged in the early morning Baghdad time (06:05 hours locally or 03:05 UTC) on December 30, 2006 in front of a group of official witnesses made up of lawyers, officials, and a doctor.
At the time of his hanging, Saddam refused to wear a mask.
Film footage has been aired on American television up to the time of the noose being wrapped round his neck. Cell phone video has since been leaked to the Internet.

Most likely staged! With Allah's name, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful
The News is too great and too difficult to believe. I hope it is really true! A life long Zionist agent is hanged by the Zionists!!! Difficult to swallow! The Execution drama is a piece of cake for those who control Hollywood. Sometime ago an American youngster had produced such video and released all over the world. I myself listened to news on Radio Pakistan in Islamabad. later it was confirmed that it was a hoax made by amateur artist.
My reasons are as follows:
* Saddam was a CIA agent from the age of about 16 years
* He was an Isamili and not a Muslim just like Hafiz Asad , Bashar Asad and Qaddafi
* He was brought in power by CIA
* He was used by Zionists rulers of America for attack on Iran and Kuwait and to rob these countries as well as Saudi Arabia, Qatar and other Gulf countries.
* Saddam was a die hard Bathist i.e. member of Bathist party founded by Michael Aflaq who was son in law of Israeli Prime Minister Goldameir . The main aim of Bathists was like Ata Turk and Musharraf to divide Muslims. He raised the slogan "Arabs first" to create a division among Muslims. Zionist consider Muslims only obstacle in their way because Muslims alone possess uncontaminated and totally protected book of the God All Mighty Allah and which can foil all their conspiracies
If the news is correct then it is great as Saddam deserved the treatment and we hope other agents of the Zionists will also meet the same end. If it is all drama even then Saddam is publicly finished. He may live as ghost.
After seeing 9/11 and drama of Weapons of Mass destruction you can understand the extent of American Wrestling Matches. Indian also played the same drama when they killed the entire royal family of Nepal using face masks. One of their agent acted as Nepali prince and created a Bollywood drama of failed love affair. No autopsy was permitted although Nepal had American qualified competent pathologists. The fault of Nepal's royal family was that the hijacked Indian plane had some links with Nepal.
Whatever the case the news is too great. Allaho Akbar! What a present on this Eid Ul Adha ( Afestival Muslims are observing all over the world by offering a sacrifce of goat or lamb etc in memory of great sacrifice of Abraham (Ibrahim) of his son Ismaeel (Ismaeel).
