Saddam's aides executed, one beheaded

iCraig · 15 Jan 2007 at 19:01

We had this discussion last time. A fair few people refused to believe Saddam was dead until they saw the video of him dying.

The hang man obviously didn't consult the hang-man's tables correctly.

I think the hang-man's tables are tables which tell them how much rope to use for a certain weight, in order to cause a break in the neck, but no decapitation.

I wouldn't imagine watching an execution was at the top of anybody's books, really.

Millions (if not billions) saw both the moon landings and the events of 9/11. And yet still conspiracy theories exist.

So what makes you think that showing the footage of any of these executions would mean that people accepted them to be factual?

I speak for myself not the millions or billions you speak of.

I dont condone killing/execution of any kind but im sure those who lost their families at the hand of this man will be glad to hear that.

Even without trial? I think it's pretty bad that the vast majority of accusations levelled against these men have never been to court - where's the justice, the accountability for the victims families? They can never be sure what happened.

So I take it the orange boiler suites were meant to resemble the ones the hostages wear when they get killed?

These people clearly should not be trusted to run that country

Yeah - and Sadam was only charged (and found guilty) of one thing, the killing of some 150-160 people after an attempted assassination. None of the other stuff he's accused of ever went to court.

yes it did, it went to court the day after he died but the court decided not to carry on as justice had been done

Maybe they'd just arrived from Guantanamo and hadn't had time to change?

Maybe they were hoping to get them both on 'Changing Rooms' for a spot of DIY before they went

No.

My Dad told me about them, he said they were in a book; I think one called "A Very English Hangman".

Huh? I thought the Iraqi court find them guilty?

From that part of the world...revenge is better than justice. (that is the mentality they show i think) So i would think the families will be glad he is no more.
