I know! The people who took over Saddams power did not want him to come back to power. So, they hanged him.

since the judges would not allow certain evidence that might have proven Sadam was not as guilty as claimed, and the fact this trial was a fiasco or better put a stacked job, where only derogatory evidence was presented , I am sure at least some of the people didn't want the whole truth to be known as many others would have been implicated and face the same charges, if there had not been good reasons such as stated, there is no apparent reason for the hurry,

The Iraqi system of justice isn't as squeamish about carrying out the death penalty as the American system is... In America condemned criminals are typically on 'death row' for as much as a decade or more while an exhaustive appeals process plays itself out, but in the middle east, where human life is not held in the same high (too damn high) regard as it is in the states, the condemned gets one appeal (Saddam's failed, big surprise) and then its off to the gallows with them, no big deal... if anyone on the planet needed to be killed it was Saddam, he was a megamaniacal dictator who took 'ruthless' to a new level... he gassed his own people (Kurds) to death more than once, and that's just one of the many things he did which warranted and justified his execution.... Good Riddance!!

Tonny Blair and George Bush were caught naked for their Iraq war policy by their country men. Their public image was sliding and the death trap which their sholdiers are facing in Iraq had forced them to take this cowardly move in hurry.Whole world knows that Saddam was not given chance to prove himself not guilty of the charges levelled. His three lawyers were killed. Only things where forcefully endorsed over him.
Every body knows that it was dirty politic of USA & Britain. Leaders of this two great nations were ashamed of facing their own people, so they tried to pleasee them on new year by killing Saddam.
Today thousands of people have died after and during the Iraq war. Who is guilty for it ? At an average 100 people die daily today in Iraq who is responsible?
Does USA dont know that Osama is hidding in Pakistan not in Iraq, What action it has taken against Pak?
It is open politics that once the economy of there nation had slowed down they wanted to controll the oil reserves of this nation and indirectly influence the industrial growth of their own country. What ever they have damaged by bombing will again have to be build up at the cost of oil reserves and sovergintiy of Iraqi people.
They are in win win position any how. They have a levish life at the cost of bloods of poor people.

It's the law in Iraq to hang someone who is sentence to it within 30 days. Saddam wasn't special.

The Iraqis want to kill him before their holy holiday came up.I believe it would have started the next day.They cannot kill another muslim on the holy day celebration.Its was the Iraqis hurry as the united states was just holding him for security purposes,we had no say so in the timing of his hanging.

Many countries, unlike the USA, have a short appeal process and believe that sitting on death row for years, 10-14 in Louisiana and Texas and as much as 24 years in California, is cruel and unusual punishment.

I think the day they are convicted and sentenced to die, all their appeals need to go out right then. After 30 days, if they are not over turned, execute the convicted person. We have people in California death row who have gotten Doctorate degrees and college under their belt at the taxpayers expense. Is that right??? I don't think so. They did a crime, are convicted, carry out the sentence.

Justice is much swifter here in Iraq than in America. He had his appeal, and then according to the judicial system, his sentence had to be carried out within one month. America did not carry out Saddam Hussein al-Tikriti's punishment; Iraq did. You may as well ask why the Russian legal system is different than our own.

A mistake, now there is no going back. He should have been taken out of Iraq from the first day, like to Guantanamo and left there.
