finalllllyyyyyyy! i hope they stick to their words and carry out the execution asap! hahahahhaaaaaaa sadam wave to the world goodbye! at last justice is being served and joy has filled the hearts of the innocent iraqis. as for those who support him, go ahead and follow ur master and die in loyalty with him!

CORRECTION..!!

Saddam was sentenced to death... after killing 148 Shiite villagers in Dujail in 1982, in retaliation for an assassination attempt.

AND NOT 183 iraqis!!! and 1982 NOT 1983

Thnks

excuse me Zeid but clearly u know nothing about Sadam and his crimes agains humanity in iraq. sadam is responsible for tens of thousands of murders and executions of innocent iraqi civilians. its about time he gets a taste of his own medicine!! and besides, whether u call it an american judjement or not doesnt make a difference because this sentence has been set under IRAQI law and by the wish of the IRAQI people (apart from the odd few). In fact Tony Blair and many americans are against the death sentence. its a shame though that he's getting away with the much bigger crimes that he committed, including the Anfal mass murder, and the gasing of Halabja, and more. The mass murder of Dujail is one of the small crimes hes committed compared to the others. People talk about sadam's human rights....well i ask them, what happend to the human rights of the thousands of iraqi civilians when they were murdered for no reason, i dont see anyone complaining about them not having human rights, where were u 'human rights activists' at that time? or is sadam more important than those thousands? its funny how the arabs think they know well whats going on iraq and whats right more than the iraqis themselves. and actually its quite expected that they react in this way, because sadam played the role of the good man, donating money to the arab countries and helping them whilst the people of his country were dieing of hunger and his country was in ruins. may God never forgive him. as for the current situation in iraq, how much worse could it get??? it cant. with him alive or not the violence would continue, so at least do the iraqis a favour and get rid of him. good ridence!

If Saddam is a war criminal, so is Bush.
If Saddam should hang, so should Bush.
Let's not forget who's crimes are worse, and how much damage was done.
In comparison, Bush is worse.

WEll, those who live by the sword, die by the sword.

NOO! wtf how could they kill him...hez the best ARAB true leader i have ever heard about.... and he killed those iraqis for reasons and they deserve it!!!!!.... and y did they excute him?!!! i swear iraqis deserve everything thats happing to them right now... inchala america will stay in their lands for wut they did to saddam!! how could they kill their leader?! its like you killing ur dad! allah yer7mo, may he rest in peace... :(

Finally hes gone...even tho am Full Iraqin but dont care about him at all...and plus for those who are saying americans killed more people in iraq...americans didnt kill its those muslim people who are killing and u know why..because saddam taught them that..so why dont u go and ask saddam that, americans didnt kill after the war!!! its all muslims and i dont care whos muslim in here but they are the worse people on the earth!!!thats all am gona say and thank god one is gone for now, i wish they all go after saddam!!!

nina...if you want pople to respect your opinion you have to respect yourself and what you say to those people..being racist wont help..it will only create more problems...the average death of iraqis over the hands of Americans is greater than the average death of iraqis over iraqis(shittes,sunnis,kurds etc etc).you call them the 'worst' people on earth yet you seem to be the exact same because of your horrendous words.why dont you go educate yourself about the true principles of islam(from the holy koran)rather than bullshit about some crazy extremists who you think represent muslims worldwide.
dufus

i really do hate him and. but when i saw the footage of him being executed i almost cried i felt soo sorry for him because what i strictly bilieve is no one shoud be executed .he has killed ssoo many people so he has to be in prison for life and after his death god would know what to do wit him.please dont even think im one percent on his side i am not i just think the execution law shouldnt exist.because we people can't decide someone's death only god can and should.but now tha he is dead it brought happiness to iraqi people and thats what matters they have been through so much so noww they deserve to take a deeep breath .BUT WILL AMERICA LET THEM?

i watched the vedios in news.. it wasnt like he was scared .. :S person facing deatch and yet as calm as can be :S.... ..ny wayz always expect nything.. maybe 2mrw they are gonna say opps this guy was not saddam but a clone :S... neva know wats cums up in these pplz brains....but if he died.. serves him well after all the harm he has done.... Well he got his faith from a judgement made by a human... but wait BUSH is gonna be judged by god him self a 1000000000000 times more... those doing bad in life and are still living happily without being judge , i belive god is making them live more...to see the extent of their evil and then they will punished million times for each and every sin they commiitted...
GOD IS GOOD... AND INSHALLAH and MAY ALL THE EVILS IN THE WORLD DIE

If you feel sad about Saddam's execution then what about those innocent Iraqis who were brutally murdered and tortured under his command?
If Bush is a war crminal, then that makes Saddam a victim of Western Imperalism?
All the evidence is aganist him and his men from the 1988 massacre in Halabja to the invasion of Kuwait in 1990, not to mention that millions suffered from the sanctions that weakened Iraq's economy as an oil-producing country, as well as the genocides committed against the and Shiites.
He finally tasted from the same cup he gave his people in the last 24 years.

this is the best news we've heard in ages. congratulations to all the wise people who understand the significance of this event. may he rot in hell forever!!

I'm americian i live in the usa and i'm so sad that he died i hope he rests in peace now.first of all it's eid elad7a it's a muslim holiday they didnt find any day to kill him but this day and lets assume he did kill 250,000 people america killed millions of people since they came.And sharon killed millions of palestinians how come they didn't hang him.from my point of view saddam is a hero to me i hope he's in heaven now.And i'm so ashamed when some people are happy because his death.let me tell you people something any human death is sad.and no one ever tried to protect palestine and fight israel exept him.SADDAM is a true hero.And i think the people who let the americian troops in iraq should be hanged by their heads not saddam who is a true leader.3eeb alshoom 3alykoom sho betsawoo koodam alamerkan.

I am tired of everyone speaking with such bias based on how they percieve Saddam rather hen the facts and what is best.To all of you who are treating him like a saint, you are wrong. Saddam did many horribe things and if the trial were fair he would not have gotten any less then life in prison. And for all of you "yay lets kill the crap out of him" people, you are completely ignorant. This is wrong. Not for his sake but for the sake of Iraq.

First of all this is DISGRACEFUL to muslims and the US is responsible. We do not execute on 3id. We just don't.It is disgraceful that the US go to a foreign country take over hang their leader on their most holy day thereby disgracing their culture and religion. They never let him see his children before dieing and they should not have hung him. Hanging is a barbaric method of excecution. The US says that they are trying to bring peace to Iraq but then they go and encourage barbaric excecution. Don't anyone make the "Saddam wasn't merciful" excuse because i we want the new government to be like him then there is no reason to have replaced him. Though many Iraqis may support it there are many ho do not. Why bring in another issue to divide them huh? We must think not of revenge but what is best for the dignity and prosperity of the country. This excecution was carried out merely so that the US could have the satisfaction of playing police officer with the world. For instance people are even lieing about how the excecution took place(he was not afraid is what I mean) they claim this only to further disgrace him and the former Iraq even more. They can not simply claim the moral authority to do anything they may please.

Now I understand you people who wanted this I really do. I'm not saying that Saddam was a good man nor a good leader. But still the trial was anything but fair. But we have to think of moving forward and what is best to bring peace to Iraq. This is clearly degregaton to Islam in that excecution on 3id is wrong. There are 365 days in the year, does anyone still think this to be a coincidense?

i dont think saddam is a saint. far from it! but i just really dont think executing him was the answer

What is done is done, if God wanted Sadam to live than he would probably be a live now.
That men is responsible for the killings of women and children, 200000 of Kurds.
He attacked khaleeji country Kuwait, why??
Because Kuwait historically belonged to IraQ.
He fired scud-rackets on Israël and Saudi Arabia, luckely he did not destroy our dear Kaab. Everybody knows that Saddam is Muslim and reads the Koran. You have realy to be a foolish man to kill people after reading Al Quran al Karim.
Sadam is a totally braiwashed person. I'm not pro -Bush neither pro-American.
Only God creates life and takes it away!
Unfortunately sunnis ans shi3a muslims are still killing eachtother now.
Why can't they live in peace with eachother, they are really going bad these days.
Why can't they see that they have the same religioun?? I really hope for the Iraqi people that they one day live in peace without american oppression in their country.

Faysal.

bebe, you have no heart! how could you say that the iraqis deserve everything they are getting. i dont know what ur nationality is, but im sure if you heard someone say that about your home country you would react the same as me. everyday millions of children are deing, and nobody cares anymore. its like the american soldiers are killing ants. and then one american soldier dies and the whole world makes a fuss. America is a selfish country and the day that whats happening in iraq happens to them, it will be the happiest day of my whole life.

Listen all of you. Saddam is a hero. These people had no right taking him out of power, and taking his life. Iraq was and still is too tough of a country to rule because of the fact that there are far too many gangs, guerilla groups, and religious factions! He had to be tough to keep the damn people over there in line. Saddam had an excellent reason to do everything he did in his past, killing all those people and "making them suffer" is because the people he had killed were those who allied with the Shiites Iranians and went against their own country..ALL TRAITORS..So being a typical leader of a country, he took care of them for going against their own country..
He was only doing what he needed to do to keep order in his country and everything at peace. If people there didn't like it they should've left. Those who allied with the enemies against Iraq were all weaklings and Saddam took them out creating a stronger nation.
Yalla, Ullah Yirhemoo. He was a hero Indeed, hopefully some of of can see that.

i am sorry for all the comments i posted and i dont mean any of it! i dont even know who i am...i think im going crazy!!!

… you don’t have to agree but at least try to respect other opinions =o)

Let me just start by saying that there is no such thing as a “great or noble” president, let’s put aside whether the man was good or not… it is a humiliation to the Muslims to execute at around a time like this… whatever happened to 3arafat and 3eid al ad7a!! This is a sacred time, and you gotta love this … if it was a Jew, they would have waited, as a respect to the people and the holiday time. As I stood celebrating eid today with tens of people, all they talked about was Sadaam, you can assume how that went!
Sadaam was executed and brought down by a butcher, how sad! They kill hundreds of Iraqis daily while repeating the phrase “The new Iraq”
Big sigh….
Sadaam might have not been good to his people, I say Allah a3lam, I’ve heard so many different stories, I cant really judge that, but what I do know is that legally he must die shot at, army way. Also, Iraqi people are to decide his end, not the puppet judges, court and the media that is designed by the USA! Just where the hell were they years ago?? I’ll tell you… They were using him in their advantage, supplying him with MDWs, but now that there is no use for him, they gotta kill him!!
There are tons of people in need all around the world, USA chooses and picks whatever is in their own convenience, As of now Sadaam is nothing but history, let’s direct our attention to the ones that are throwing the party, can you guess it? Can you stop them?

3O'BAALAK YA BUSH =o)

the shiaa people murdered saddam on the sunni eid day so that this day no longer remains eid for the sunnis...so that this day burns into their memories forever...so that their eid will always be a day of mourning...not happiness.what kind of person would wish such a thing onto another?personally i think the shiaas are pieces of scum who arent even muslim.they have separated themselves from islam so much because of a stupid disagreement over who was meant to be the caliphate after the prophet.pathetic.the devil is probably laughing at the ignorant,angry and helpless state of all iraqis and muslims in general.were like the jews who betrayed moses once.actually jews are more deserving of the middle east and better than all of us muslims.but anyway..its all coming for the shiaa iraqis.they're going to learn a lesson they'll never forget in their lives..they'll go back to the iran's shithole they came from.crazy people...never stop bashing themselves with stones.they remind me of the cannibals of the amazon..actually cannibals are more civilized than them. mwahahahahahahahahahahaah

and those were mainly shiaas and kurds.

shi3a muslims arent bad.they are just happy because for about 20 years they have been watching saddam killing from their people. but what they dont realise is that executing saddam is only going to make things worse.

no whatever,
believe it or not i am muslim..but i got to a point where i got so fed up with our problems and embarrasments as muslims(which are mainly caused because of different pathetic sects and alot of terrorists).saddam hussein only got hung because of these shiaa twats who think iraq is going to be built back the way it was after he is dead and most of you will think he probably deserved it but ameena was right he only kiled those who did not cooperate with him about loads of attempted assasination plots.fine..lets say i dont care about saddams death because he was better off dying than living in prison forever but why do such a horrible thing to sunnis..on our eid day?
you tell me they are still muslims but they ACT like they arent...they beat themselves up, they have different prayers,they have different eids....what?ya3ni it seems like a new islam being completely renovated!to me, they arent muslims...they are kufar(my opinion only).The shia of iraq have very clearly waged a war with the sunnah, they allied with the kafir occupation forces and massacred the tribes of fallujah and to this day they hold dungeon prisons where they tortue anyone with a tribal family name.im sorry but i believe that they shoud live in peace with us sunnis but should stop that root of chaos which emerged from them...because then iraq will be like it used to be..one of the best beautifully cultured countries of the world.if they are still the stubborn idiots they are then iraq will no longer be iraq but it will be divided into shiaastan,kurdistan,and sunnistan.maybe that will cheer them up little shits.
