    He was nursed, fed, brought up by usa, supplied weapons of mass detruction by usa,
    so why should he be spared.We believe in killing our friends. After all we are the only superpower in this world.

    Don't hang Saddam please. He is still a human being. No matter what he did
    in the past, let he be forgiven. While justice has to find its course, killing him will
    not change history. Give him another chance to repent. Saddam is total prisoner,
    he is virtually dead after all those accusations and dirty words hurled against him.
    A civilized world like us should not duplicate and evil thing. If Saddam murdered
    people in the past, murdering him will not do any good at all. While we don't need 
    to free him,  keeping him behind bars for as long as he lives is more than enough
    payment over his crimes. His mental sufferings and lack of freedom is tantamount
    to killing him already. You may disagree but life is important even to a man called
    Saddam.

    I just saw that. Quite unbelievable that we are finally at this point. I say lock him away until he expires, which will probably not be long. Hanging him will only martyr him even if he is not innocent (martyrs are usually innocent). I figure it is up to the Iraqi people, however. I think it would be in the interest of the U.S. to at least pretend to want them to spare him the death penalty. Either way he is damned, today or another day, he will reside in hell.

    I'd say he's better of alive than dead.  While locked up in isolation without any human communication at all, it won't be long before he contemplates suicide.  Personal suicide is the more humane and sane option than death by hanging.  That way, his death can't be utilized as a rallying point for any political agenda by any interested party.

    peedee: i have absolutely no idea what you're saying.

    anonymous: personally, i believe that capital punishment's sole purpose is to prevent repeat offenses.  in that regard, i reluctantly feel that it's a viable option in certain cases.  and if anyone's earned it more than hussein that's alive right now, i don't know who that person is.

    alienated: yeah, i'm kinda having mixed feelings about the matter.

    FD: that's a superb point; i agree w/ nack.
