Do you think Saddam Hussein's execution was justified??

Answer 1

Do you think him murdering thousands of innocent men, women and children was justified?

Answer 2

Yes, it was justified. Saddam was responsible for the deaths of an estimated 300,000 innocent Iraqis by means of torture, firing squads, & chemical agents. He even had 40 members of his family killed. The Iraqis are still finding mass graves. He may have not pulled the trigger in all deaths, but he did sign documents to order the killings. There are many more reasons to justify is execution, but I wouldn't want to take up all the space. In this case, he deserved his fate.

Answer 3

No human beings do not have the right to choose who gets to live and who gets to die. Are we not being hypocritical by punishing Saddam Hussein for killing people when we are doing the exact same thing to him by murdering him. He proberly believes he is being a Martyr therefore instead of killing him which would end his punishment straight away he should live out the rest of his life in a prison.

Answer 4

Possibly, but thats as far as I can go because all I can go on is what I've been told in the media and thats not enough for me to condemn a man to death. He was most likely a really bad guy but then again there's lots of bad guys out there. There's also lots of lies out there. One thing I do know is that he was at one time supported by the CIA and given training and weapons. Its a twisted game and I can't say for sure one way or another if this guy's execution was justified.

Answer 5

Wait a minute......we are not taking about a criminal who goes about shooting people at random here...

We are talking of a Head of State who may have had to put down armed troops trying to bring down the peace and stability of his country.

For all I know is that there have been more death after his rule than all his years in command. So who is the criminal here.

The criminal here is the person who promised a peaceful, democratic & liberal Iraq and goofed up terribly & gave us a Country of the living dead. A country without any safety, without any law & without any peace.

And that too how many years into the future ...10yrs...20yrs...???or may be till the oil runs dry.

WHO IS TO BE HANGED HERE.....???

I think that the war in the Gulf has killed more people than Hitler may have managed with his gas chambers.

Answer 6

Absolutely not, but that is my personal opinion. I think that the people of Iraq must be allowed to have their own system of government and justice, and it was they who condemned him to die. An unfortunate situation, but not my business as an American to interfere. I'm afraid our beloved government has done enough of that already.

Answer 7

He was a mass murderer having killed 2 million people including his son in law. He used nerve gas on the Kurds and killed women and children. Do you think his death was justified? Perhaps we should have placed him on a throne and adorned him. He is now in Hell (level 10) where he belongs.

Answer 8

Absolutely, as I've asked before did you not see the video of dead women holding their dead babies and dead children who were playing in their yards in the Kurdish towns he gassed? The guy was wasting perfectly good air the rest of us can now use.

Answer 9

Yes I do. What he did to the Kurds alone was justification enough, it was genocide.

Do I agree with the process? , I really have no way of knowing, our exposure the the court process was soundbites, carefully doled out like doses of a medicine.

Answer 10

Yes. Many times over.
