The American Army did not kill Saddam. His Shiite enemies, now in control of the Iraqi government executed him.
Few people will feel sorry for him, although many will use his death as a political and propaganda weapon, pretending that he was indeed the contemporary Saladin.
Saddam was never a danger to the USA, although he badly misread American interests and its commitment to Kuwait and Saudi Arabia. His attacks on Iran had US support, and Amb. April Glaspie failed to disabuse him of the notion that it would carry him through his Kuwait adventure.

You have been watching too much Al Jezeerah broadcasting and cannot separate propaganda from fact. Although it was a goal of the soldiers to capture Saddam, they did not execute him.
Saddam and Iraq should have been only a side issue in the response to the attack on the US by muslim terrorists. Bad information from the western intelligence sources painted Saddam as a "player" in the terrorist threat. He probably was not.
Osama ben Laden is still our most dangerous terrorist threat.

Al Jezeerah isn't going to give you the straight skinny. Saddam was tried, convicted and executed by an Iraqi court, not the American Army. And I'm pretty happy overall. Both men were scumbags, oozing lesions on the backside of humanity. Equal billing as best candidates for wormpoop.

Faulty Premise.
You're just trying to pick a fight, but unfortunately...you're just not bright enough to get the job done. sorry.
American forces did not execute Saddam Hussein. The democratically elected, civilian government of Iraq tried him for his crimes. The People of Iraq found him guilty. The people of Iraq carried out his sentence.
IF Saddam had been an American citizen, then he would be alive now and likely for 10-30 more years as our grindingly slow appeals process played itself out. He'd more likely have died of Old Age in the American Justice system.
Swift, terrible punishment is typical in Arab courts.

We liberated Iraq because Saddam change into an evil dictator who murdered over a million of his own human beings, and change into also sending terrorists all global huge to homicide threat free human beings. once you're saying Saddam really killed 148 human beings you're mendacity and also you already realize it. 148 is what number he change into convicted of killing in an ordeal that really dealt with the homicide of 148 particular human beings. If Saddam does not were performed by the Iraqi human beings for murdering 148 of them, Saddam might want to were tried and convicted for the homicide of thousands of thousands extra. there change into no objective in delaying the execution merely so that you've a higher huge form to whine about once you slander u.s.. The UN approved protection stress action hostile to Saddam, and then even as the U. S. did it the corrupt Kofe Annan began complaining because Kofe and his friends, even Kofe's son Kojo, were getting wealthy from bribes Saddam change into paying them. in the journey that your relatives were between the 148 homicide victims you element out how might want to you experience about Saddam being performed. As for even if there'll be peace in Iraq, if muslims end murdering different muslims there'll be peace. end mendacity...

I think somebody's been watching too much Al Jazeera.
Saddam was not killed by US Army, he was tried, convicted, and executed by an Iraqi court.
And our military is not dangerous.
Hussein and bin Laden were were/are equally dangerous in my eyes.

Didn't you read the article? The American Army are still pissed off that they cannot go home now, even though Saddam was hung.
