They were talking about this video on the news. I actually saw it a little while after he was executed at my friend's house. It's pretty disturbing.
This was actually illegally recorded. Because they were collecting cellphones from the people who came to watch the execution. And evidently, this person managed to sneak his in.
I heard something about a guy yelling something at him during the execution... I thought it was pretty weird. I'm not going to watch this, though.
I started to watch it....then I clicked out before anything happened. I just didn't feel right watching it because it's sick and barbaric. He should have spent the rest of his life in jail. Not this.
Do we really need to be linking this? I'm going to keep my personal politics to myself, but this is no better than watching a man losing his head in a beheading. Seriously, did we have to encourage people and test their curiosity for something such as an execution by giving it its own public thread? It's a horrible thing to watch; don't know why anyone would want to share it. :\ I just personally think this should have stayed one of those "if you're that curious, you'll find it yourself" type of things.
I watched it the other day. Disturbing. I agree with Andrea that he should have spent the rest of his life in prison.
it would've been more disturbing had it not been for the person's shitty camerawork, though it's understandable seeing as they weren't allowed to bring one in anyway. and, yeah, they should've left saddam in prison. it's just too bad for those societies who haven't left the barbaric means of execution.
It wasnt as bad as i thought it would be, but i do have to agree. its pretty insane on what some countries do. its funny how people make stupid statements like "they should just slice osama's head off!", or "hang saddam by his neck!". its only that americana society bullcrap. now when they actually DO execute someone in a barbaric way, people shun their heads. Im not ridiculing anyone on the LPA forums, its just that here in Texas, people make stupid comments all the time and when somthing IS done, they all shut their mouths. i just dont get it.
When they assassinated Saddam, I had a one word response: "Finally" Stupid fucking legal red tape...they should have killed him on the spot.
agg.. the video was horrible and I don't wish anyone to die or been executed or anything, but personally, he deserved it.
im not agree with you ... you must know that this man was in the right place , im sur you watch NEWS and you see a lot of peoples die a lot of USA army dies in iraq !!! imagine that only this man ,he was controling all iraq , yes he burend people alive kill people alive , but i think that he was controlin his country nicely i dnt like the way they killd him , finaly he stay a humain and humains makes mistakes .... and WE continue madin mistakes this is life and this our disteney ..... i wish that all the Wars finishd and all people from different countries love each others .....! Good Luck to every1.
Def. agreed with you.. What that heck.. people are trying to defend him, and I understand that, but I bet if president Bush were to do something like Saddam did, then everybody would be freaking around and go after Bush to kill him.. And there would be no excuse.. He deserved. done. Just face it.. You get paid back for what you have done.
His reign ended so many months ago. The damage was done, and so was his reign. You could have stopped it right there, but instead, you had to kill another person. He died with dignity. He wasn't afraid of death. If you want someone to feel the pain for what they've done, then let them have it the rest of their lives. He deserved so much more. His death took less than a minute. Less than a minute of revenge for many years of his torturing and killing? I don't see it.
I think also that he deserved this. But,too stay happy, according to vkmag.nl he hasnt broke his neck. he is just breacking the Trampoline Bouncing Record. http://www.nosoup.net/nosoup4u/b3ta/saddamsbouncingrecord.html *sorry, i think it is also barbaric. But he has murdered soo much people* Edit// I'm reading here that he filmer of this movie is found and is apprehended. Edit// Before he gets hang up, the people are yelling "Muqtada, Muqtada, Muqtada” Thats a radical sjiitic mental? named Muqtada al-Sadr. His father is murdered by Saddam! I thought if read somewhere, before saddam died, he yells: NOW you dare!
