carlospacheco

Might makes right.

That is what everything boils down to.

I thought he was hung for his crimes for killing all those INNOCENT people in his own country...

Too bad they can't answer your question, isn't it...

ROBIN HOOD

he was hanged by his own country men
and the war is about terror and not oil
i should know ill be on my 4th tour on suday

He wasn't hung for oil he was hung because he was a killer.

Saddam's rightfully burning in Hell. The IRAQI'S tried, sentenced him fairly and hung his murderous carcass for hideous crimes against humanity. He was an evil, sadistic, merciless greedy dictator like Hitler and Stalin!
Is being British your excuse for your thinking?

We did not hang him. And those who did, did so for the crimes he committed. Had we done the trial, he would have sat on death row until my kids are in college filing appeal after appeal.

You're British, well you can join the French in thanking us for the fact that people in your country do not speak German or Russian.

He like that didn't you know this. He love to have people killed. He loves death. He liked that. I wish I was there to hear that neck snap.

The Fat Controller

he deserved to hang . though the Iraq's need to do a more professional job when they do

smcgilli

correction - He was hanged by his own people.

Curt

Yea, it really had nothing to do with all the murders.

Sad for who? Saddam or the millions that he tortured and killed? You must either be a family member or some knothead looking for a reaction! Stop playing with yourself and get off the computer!

You need to be educated more, if you think that he was hanged simply because of oil. Of course there was an agenda, but he WAS NOT killed for the oil but for the horrendous things that he did and asked others to do for him.

I hear your having a bit of a problem with muslim radicals. What are you going to do when they start hanging Brits for there tea?

Sarge

You must actually be Michael Moore. That oil baloney has long been shown as bunk created by anti-Bush weirdos.

Isn't it sad when you're not allowed to have your own opinion, or have to be told what to think by someone else, when you live in the UK?

Saddam Hussein wasn't hung for the oil, it wouldn't've made any difference if he got life imprisonment. Saddam Hussein was hung because he was a symbol, because his (show) trial showed the beacon of 'democratic' justice in Iraq, because the United States and its Allies had to show they were doing 'something' positive (because what else has been positive?), and because some idiots in Washington honestly believed that getting rid of Saddam Hussein would have lessened the will and strength of the insurgency.

Depending on the varying figures as to how many Iraqis have died since March 2003 - anything from 50,000+ to 650,000+ - more Iraqis have died since March 2003 than in the whole of Saddam Hussein's dictatorship (estimated 300,000 - 400,000), it's entirely possible that America and its allies are responsible for more deaths than Saddam Hussein was..

that would be sad, where did such a thing as that happen, we all would like to know.

It wasn't the British who hung Saddam, it was the Iraqi Governement. I believe he was hung for war crimes against the Kurds and various other crimes, not because of his oil.

Well obviously showing your lack of education. During Saddam's rule there were hundreds of thousands Kurds, Shiites, killed. Entire villages of Kurds were summarily mascaraed using chemical weapons (sarin, mustard gas) to quell the Kurdish rebellion. In the south Hundreds of thousands of Shiites that tried to rebel against him were executed in mass graves. Many were buried alive, or put before a firing line. He tried to invade Iran for it's oil fields, killing millions of Iranians. Since his overthrow there have been multiple mass graves found. He also invaded Kuwait for their oil fields. His army committed atrocities in that country as well. So his conviction was justified, and his execution also justified.

The Tin Man

Did you miss where he had it coming?

wild-man of Borneo

Not for the oil.
Just the betrayal of Judas one of the dirty dozen who sold the poor old man for 30 pieces of silver and it has to be done quickly before anyone else notice it in planet of apes.
Along the way blunders and slip-ups expose itself with time in making a monkey out of themselves in planet of apes.
Ever wonder who will rise on the third day after the crucifixion for making a mess and monkey out of themselves in planet of apes.
The dirty old man was right with "The wrong man"
Ever wonder who get kick on the butts by the three monkeys with see no evil, say no evil and hear no evil in making a mess and monkey out of living human kind in planet of apes?

eldertrouble

May he rot... I guess the Kurds he gassed to death were after his oil to...

rgrahamh2o

Oh yeah.......that was why he was really hung. If it was about the Oil then the Americans would have stepped in and tried him at the Hague for War crimes.

He was hung by an Iraqi court. Get your facts straight. He was hung for Mass genocide, murder as were his accomplices. If you dont know what you are talking about then keep your mouth shut.

British or not, that is the most idiotic thing i have ever heard.

SAINT G

the mantra of the times: the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few. also, it is easier to get away with killing foreigners than your own, so they get away with it under 'war crimes'.

you know, in war everyone commits crimes of murder, so why is it that only the losers get tried and hanged for it? the winners inevitably have killed and destroyed more than the losers, so are more guilty.

PS: Tattoo (above). what are you talking about? are you saying that the Yanks saved the west from the Nazis and Russians?? what a load of rubbish. you guys were drinking beer and relaxing while the rest were at war. the russians helped damage the Germans from the north, so they helped too. the yanks just didnt want the russians to take over the wrecked europeans countries that the germans were now evicted from. the americans may have saved the pacific but forget their input in the main euro battle.
. typical though, turn up at the end for the party after the hard work is finished. too many movies have rewritten your version of events.

Tabasum K

I AGREEEEE!!!! LOL AMERICA-PEACE??!! MY ***! IF YOU DONT AGREE YOU HAVE A DISABILITY OF NOT BEING ABLE TO READ BETWEEN THE LINES. SADDAM WAS NOT HUNG BY HIS OWN COUNRTY THE WHOLE THING WAS A BIG PUPPET SHOW ORGANISED BY THE AMERICANS.

Jeffery C

How old are you?

Robespierre

Yes it is ill

What about his crimes against his own countrymen? I did not realize the British hung him!

question

Why don't your ask one of the kid's who's parents were put into a meat grinder, or the ten of thousands of women who were systematically raped as retaliation for their husbands/fathers standing up for their rights.

Speaking of oil, as a Briton you should be proud of the legacy that BP and their environmental disasters have left on the world.

ddey65

What a stupid world when people still fall for 17-year-old variations of communist lies like the "war for oil" propaganda! And if you like Saddam Hussein more than the UK, YOU'RE A TRAITOR!!
