Saddam Hussein Dead - Good Riddance to Bad Rubbish

@ 11:32 PM (35 months, 9 days ago)

 

It is fitting that Saddam Hussein died, as many of his political opponents did, dangling from the end of a rope. He had used the gallows at Abu Ghraib to silence opposition and dissent. In doing so, he had controlled Iraq for over two decades, but he created a generation of enemies. And some of those enemies, who never forgot their fathers and brothers who disappeared in the night, were there to watch him die.

For many who watched it, the execution of Saddam Hussein was a personal vindication. He killed their brothers, uncles, tore apart their families and ran their beloved country into the ground. Even if his finger didn't pull the trigger, they blamed him for everything: every nail-biting visit by an intelligence officer, every midnight execution, every tongue cut out by a sadistic guard, every body in the mass graves at Hillah and Hawija and Musayeb. He projected absolute authority while he was in power and now faced absolute responsibility for every death under his rule. The moment the steel trap door below his feet was released, he suffered the absolute punishment — a powerless old man, dying alone.

    Saddam got what he deserved. Justice done! The world is a better place without the arrogant monster.

    Upon hearing the news that he'd been executed, my husband and I sent up fireworks. In the dark, we could hear cheers from our neighbors, some of whom have family members deployed in Iraq.

  6. I think they should have videoed him being autopsied so the world would have proof positive that he is dead. Guys like Dugg will be dreaming up conspiracies that he is in Brazil with the Nazis.
