Do we? I'm pretty sure the US was instrumental in removing Saddam. And regardless of whether or not we support it or not, oojay has a point; the trial was conducted by Iraqi's as was the execution

You can lead a horse to water, but you cannot force him to drink. You can lead Iraqi forces to Saddam, but you cannot force them to kill him. Unless you do a nationwide poll that shows me that atleast 51% of americans support his hanginh, then you have nothing to say.

I disagree,
The majority of americans voted for bush.
The majority of americans are obviously republicans.
The majority of americans would probably vote to hang Sadam.

We can speak in probablies until we are blue in the face. Claims like that require factual backing.

whatev. dead is dead is dead. i, for one, am not displeased. hanging, lethal injection, electric chair, stoning... it all amounts to a well-deserved death.

Are you saying the majority of americans voting for bush isn't factual? That perhaps the voting was fixed?

I agree.

There they were in a pile. A pile of little arms. And I remember... I... I... I cried. I wept like some grandmother. I wanted to tear my teeth out. I didn't know what I wanted to do. And I want to remember it. I never want to forget it. I never want to forget. And then I realized... like I was shot... like I was shot with a diamond... a diamond bullet right through my forehead. And I thought: My God... the genius of that.
