I hate to say this, but there is a serious problem with this hanging situation.
Iraqi law forbids the execution of anyone over 70 years old.
Saddam will be 70 on April 28 next year. Count ‘em folks, 4 and 1/2 ,months.
That is why they delayed the filing of his appeal until the very last day.
Stretching the appeal process as long as they can, before they stretch his neck!
This is one of those situations that I will believe they have hanged the murderous SOB when I can see it for myself!
They should have just dropped a grenade down his hole.
I want to start a collection to send Cindy Ishitoncaseysgrave Sheehan and Media Benjamin and Noam Chomsky and a few other over there to actaully be human shields for ol’ Saddam. Maybe they’d like to try to live up to thier self-image - at least until the rocks fly.
Rickvid, I’d contribute for a one-way ticket. But alas - like Alec ‘going to move from the US if Bush is re-elected’ Baldwin, BSCS is not true to her lies either. There was a website that raised the money for a one-way ticket to Venezuela for her after her ‘I’d rather live under Hugo Chavez (who was democratically elected) than George Bush’ crack. These people are all talk - who knows, if we are lucky BSCS and her ‘crew’ will be doing some jail time - as they are on trial in New York for their little sit in at the UN. We can only hope
And yes, Drew, sad to say, I agree the 4th ID should have shot him. But they couldn’t since unlike his demon spawn - he chose to cower and pee his pants rather than go down fighting. Another typical despot liberal tyrant. Always get other people to do their dirty work, so that in the end they can act like the cowards they are. And try and get away with it.
How ‘bout the biggest of ironies - hang the sob on the last day of March? Talk about - deadline - sort of gives the word a whole new meaning!
So, all that means is that they should “swing” that sack of ratfeces on or before April 27th, 2007. And put it on Pay Per View, and offer the proceeds to families of his murder victins.
I’d love to see it as part of the New Years 2007 Gala Celebration, the Times Square Ball drops, and Saddam Swings. Happy New Year !!!
