But you still don't believe Saddam is dead?

Who's the poor bugger lying dead then? :eek:

Right...so theres no point in me searching for something that hasn't been aired anywhere in the world.

Wouldn't suprise me if it was never shown.

Such a video does exist, according to official Iraqi sources, but I doubt it will be released and I'm skeptical about leaks considering the high profile nature of the event.

I think the videos showing him being led to the gallows and his body following the hanging are enough to reassure the Iraqi people that the deed has been done.

If they don't show the full video, they are creating a conspiracy theory.

No, people like you are the ones who will be creating the conspiracy theories...

I can't remember where I read it, but I'm sure it has already been shown on Iraqi television, it won't be shown on BBC etc. for obvious reasons.

No, the people who believe we never went to the moon, and that Aliens live amongst us, and other rubbish like that, will create a conspiracy theory.

You can't win against people who don't trust anyone and believe anyone with the slightest ounce of authority is capable of anything.

They release the full video, the man in the video isn't Saddam. His face was photoshopped, it was a dummy, it was Elvis...

Given that many millions of people watched the WTC being attacked live on television, and there were still conspiracy theories, what makes you think that those who are pre-disposed to such nonsense will see a video clip and go 'Yup, I'm satisfied.....'

neocon · 30 Dec 2006 at 14:37

I'm affraid you'll have to live with it because there are plenty of these people.

We've lived with it for years.

Elvis is alive!
Moon landing was filmed in area 51!
Aliens landed and were captured in area 51!
Twin towers were destroyed by aliens!
Twin towers were destroyed by the US!
Diana was killed by the Monarchy!
London bombings were planned by Parliament and mi6!

We've heard it all before, and it doesn't surprise me that a new one is added to he list.

Saddam wasn't executed. It was a body double!

They can make up as much crap as they like, they're all still lies.

Of course "dodgy goings on" happen by the people in power. What do you think of watergate?

He could be holding his breath.

True. I reckon it would be easy to do that with a crushed windpipe.

There will be one, without a doubt. I'm sure certain Islamic websites have a copy. We know the actual hanging was filmed and documented, and it's nearly 12 hours since the event. I have the upmost faith in the internet that it's out there if you look for it.

Bit of a backpedal there, you've gone from there is one but i cant link you to it, to there will be one i think, somewhere......

I haven't back-pedalled at all. I said I can't link to any, but it's out there.

Then again I said, I have no doubt that it's out there. Media sources and Iraq officials have said that the execution was filmed.

Eh? Not even remotely the same circumstances. War is far from over in Iraq, in fact it'll get a lot worse I'm sure.

Bush and Blair waged an illegal war, lied to their people and have caused the death of 1000's in he name of democracy. They are not my leaders. They are war criminals.

Don't normally agree with your views but this time you are spot on
