Saddam Hussian - Should he have been hung? [Closes 05/02/07]

I'm not an expert but I thought more than 2 people die in the UK every day. The UK is horrible. :rolleyes:

Ok, i'm staying out of this from now on.

That's nature, but purposely taking another life isn't. Iraq is a hell hole now, ever since they bothered going on this pointless war.

No there isn't? How would they? What good would it do? He had no power anymore? Breaking him out would be a waste of effort and time. A lost cause.

I like the promised peace in Iraq. They killed 2 more people and one of their heads came off. Wow, Iraq seems like such a nice place now :rolleyes:

Yes there is a chance. American troops aren't going to be there forever and the iraqi army is never going to be that stong so a team of Saddams supports could quite easily storm the place and get him. It doesn't matter he hasen't got power, his supports believe what he has done is right and he should be free, thats a clear enough reason.

When has a iraqi or any were in the middle east have peace? There always at war with each other, alot of the time Western countries support it (America actully support Iraqi's invasion of Kuwait, mainly for oil)

There is a chance, but it is very unlikely, incredibly unlikely actually... If he was going to get life imprisonment, he would of been locked up in the US where I believe he was locked for some time. I doubt the US would not be in their own country forever somehow... It isn't a fully justified and clear reason really, if they did miraculously free him, what would he do? Where would he go? He would just be hunted down and killed.

Also, thinking about it. If he was locked away, of course he would be guarded? They won't just descide "I'm bored, let's leave" and leave Saddam on his own?

Iraq was more in peace when he was in reign. Naturally, there would be some conflict in the world, there always is. So Iraq and Iran having a war is a possiblity. The US just like to think of themselves as world police and consider any world action stupid and just take out one of the people in trouble.

Why would he be locked up in the US. He was tried in Iraqi, a iraqi tribunal wouldn't just go "Lets lock him up in the US" would they?

Its not a case if the guards up and leave. Prison guards, not even the iraqi army (which is new by the way, the majority of the army are new recruits from after saddam lost power, so there not going to be very well trained) are going to be able to stop a attack by some iraqi guerrlias.

Oh and werw ould he go? I know with the people who freed them. The American army is doing a great job at finding them aren't they.

Surely if they were going to imprison Saddam for life it would be in a secure, secret location? So as to avoid attempted break outs? I know they could'nt keep him secret forever, but you know.

Indeed, and considering the US have this huge influence over certain Iraq Government ideas, I can see them persuading Iraq to take Saddam and lock him up somewhere else. I could see the US letting US soldiers stay in Iraq to watch over Saddam's prison if he wasn't wrongly slaughtered infront of a huge, worldwide audience through leaks.

There you go. If his were abouts is ever found they can break him out, simple.

I doubt he would survive it and I also doubt it would be an easy task. It all depends on what the prison he would of been in was like if they didn't kill him unjustfully.

I imagine it would be kinda secure with the Iraqi government guarding it all the time. Although I can see them requesting the US to watch over it while they are in the country doing God knows what.

Let's think about this, US and UK say Saddam was barbaric and evil, YET the so called "Democratic" government of Iraqi which is controlled by the US can't get Saddam's execution right, and after that they couldn't even get 2 of his generals executions right!

WOW the US has made IRAQ SO MUCH BETTER AND THEY ARE SO FAIR DOING EXECUTIONS IN PUBLIC :rolleyes:
