should Saddam Hussein have been hung

ummmmm
bit late if he shouldnt have lol

I had no problem with it.xx

Yes

no !!! he should have been shot on the spot when they found him in his rat hole,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

No his death made him a maryter to his supporters, life imprisonment without chance of parole..I saw his death on video when I was abroad and he went to the gallows defiant as ever...if he had faced life behind bars he may have come to realise his evils

Yes

Colin,

Problem is, someone has to pay for his keep. Guess who would have contributed.

Kay,

I was going to say that but perhaps it was to easy for him.

yep defo

xxx

No.
I dont believe in it.

He should have been locked up, I think it would have been more of a punishment.

Who would have kept him for the remainder of his living,,,,,,,,,,,wouldnt be fair to inflct that on them after what he did during his time,,,,salt in wounds come to mind,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

No, but I don't believe in the death penalty.

Well Hitler did us a favour then by topping himself when the going got tough ? and all those German war criminals who were hung ?...their victims and their families live with it each and every day but the ******,s who inflicted it ,one trial and oblivion , they won,t have to live with it..
Kim

sorry folks but yes

hanging is the punishment of his country

and if they had not hung him

his followers would of staged a coup

and reinstated him

ie back to dictatorship

and how many innocent

fellow country men have been murdered

or disappeared

or woman or babies raped

If he had been imprisoned in a prison outside of Iraq a coup would have been impossible. Dictatorships exist all over the world but alas not all of them in oil rich areas to attract our attention

Colin

if Saddam had been imprisoned

in another country

Evey foreign aid worker

would have lived in fear

of been kidnapped

with the offer of trading their lives

for his release

he was hung to stop this happening

we did not hang Saddam

his own people did it

for crimes against them

dreadful awful crimes

we have only read about

aint we luck we live in England

Perhaps the voice of his thousands of victims women/men and children should be heard on this,,,,,,,,,,,,,

****they could say we didnt deserve to be slaughtered and neither did my children,****

do you think they would want him living,,???,,,,,,,,,dont think so,,,,,,,,,,,,,

If the death penalty is a deterrant why do the US states that still impose a death sentance for certain crimes have no lower crime rates than those states who don't.

Joy see your point but still believe he should have been locked away....his death did not save aid workers, security staff or armed forces being killed

how many innocent

children had to suffer

before saddam

got what was coming to him
