"Iraq Court Upholds Saddam Death Sentence
By CHRISTOPHER TORCHIA
Associated Press Writer
BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) -- Iraq's highest court rejected Saddam Hussein's appeal Tuesday and said the former dictator must be hanged within 30 days for ordering the killing of scores of *****e Muslims in 1982"
Iraq Court Upholds Saddam Death Sentence (http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/S/SADDAMS_SENTENCE?SITE=KVUE&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT)
Also in the report
"In upholding the sentence, imposed Nov. 5, the Supreme Court of Appeals also affirmed death sentences for two of his co-defendants, including his half brother. And it said life imprisonment for a third was too lenient and demanded he be given the death penalty, too."
heh,
Could use more courts like that here

I agree.
Shoulda shot him in the hole they found him in and just took some pictures and left him there.
-
Someone is already protesting the trial and sentence. Human rights watch is all upset about it. Funny they didn't seem to be upset at him for his actions at all.
-
Human rights groups are a bunch of limp wristed pansies. Send them to Iraq for a year and lets see how they feel

Hilarious picture on the front page of drudge.

I want to watch it live on tv, but in the kinder gentler world I'll have to log into you tube in about 3 months to see it :(

That statement right there has given me more material for the cartoon I draw in the college newspaper than anything else so far this year.

Heck, I'm gonna scan the image and sell T-shirts. Saddam, Texas Style. :aok
-
If the sentence is carried out, do you think Saddam's demise will increase or decrease the violence in Iraq?
-
It will have no effect whatsoever.
-
I'm with rpm on this...it will have no effect on the violence.
On the other hand, it WILL be justice....well earned and deserved.
Saddam, dat boy be sho cool and smart mouf durin da trial but turn him over to dem Shi-ites and HOOEEE I bet his additude change QUICK!
Sho Nuff!
-
it is ironic that human rights protesters will only protest against people who will not kill or imprison them... in other words...respect their human rights..
lazs
-
I think he should be sent to a secret concentration camp and left to rot in ignomy. Hanging is far too leniant a sentence for this guy.

Just curious here. Does that mean you agree with my sentiment, or is it just the foil to support the "human rights" group?

It means I agree with your sentiment.
I find it "hilarious" that people will scream for human rights for Saddam but completely turn a blind eye to his attacks on human rights. Also funny that these same folk will say "Stand up and take action!" (Against Saddam being hanged), but are totally against protecting or liberating people who were oppressed by him, and who, coincidentally, had much less control over their fate than he.
But it's just the same old thing with everything in life, isn't it? Protest over nickels and dimes and turn a blind eye to everything major.
Or, more localized... Let me draw the Prophet Muhammad rolling on ecstacy with a stick of dynamite in his hand, or Jesus Christ with a flock of sheep with human heads (gotta be equal fellas), and that's all just fine with people on campus. Not a single complaint. Go right ahead, freedom of speech!
But then the guy on the paper who runs our "Do's and Don'ts" section links diet pepsi, jenga, and lesbianism, and you'd think a war started on campus. Protests everywhere, calls for his resignation, etc.
I kindly reminded people that I'd been doing a whole lot worse, every week, against everybody I could think of in the comic, and no one complained - no one stood up for Muslims or Christians, or anyone else I may have offended. But you know, people never want to stand up for anyone or anything until it directly affects them.
Kind of off topic, but these past few months have been an interesting lesson in humanity.
-
Thanks, I kinda thought that would be the case but wasn't sure.
BTW you have any scans of your 'toons? you ought to try and put some up here.
I recall a guy that did AH toons, guys name stated with a D, Dumas? His toons were a riot and spot on target for a bunch of stuff that happened in the game. I looked forward to his stuff but he stopped posting. :(
