He must die. To leave him alive would only serve the insurgency.

He is being tried in an Islamic court. The penalties are carried out in public.

Once the head of that snake is gone, no other can take it's place, and then maybe, just maybe the Iraqis can move on in development.

Leave a rope in the cell and subject him to 7 days of Bill and Hillary Clinton speeches and he will hang himself.

Ditto... I can't wait for this trial to be over and wish those in charge would put it on a fast track. Sentencing and putting Saddam to death would bolster the Iraqis confidence that this bad guy will never have the opportunity to regain any power and they can close that brutal chapter forever.

I am more worried about the political process and making sure an Iranian tyrant doesn't become the new Saddam.

Hang him. Or shoot him. Or hang him and then shoot him.

I don't care, I just want him dead.

It sets a very good precedent. Torture and kill your own people and invade neighboring countries at your peril.

First we see Saddam hanged, then we do the House of Assad. Then we get those bastards in Iran.

He should hang by his wrists in a public square where Iraqis can do what they wish with him. If he is still alive after wards will just shoot him in the gut till he bleeds out or dies of an infection.

You'll get no argument from me. I was just commenting on the topic of this thread.

I don't want him hanged. I want him shredded like many of his victims.

"Americans want Saddam to hang if convicted."

Not me. I want his limbs tied to four bulldozers, that will drive off toward the north, east, south and west as slowly as is possible until he is stretched to the breaking point and then turned of for the day while everyone goes home for the night. Then fire up the dozers the next day and continue the slow journey in all directions until Saddam has been subdivided.

That's slightly inaccurate. Most of us want that snake to hang even if NOT convicted. Oh, and we want it to be videotaped and broadcast around the world.

Tie him to the front of a car and see how fast he can run.

It is so funny that the countries that do not want to see Saddam killed are the same ones who chose not to send troops.

In that case STFU.

"I am not one for putting people to death," said Molly Gearin of Bullhead City, Ariz. "I'm not God."

Too bad the murderers don't see things the same way.

I don't understand why they need this show trial anyway. Poor defendants on trial for murder in the US usually have a 1 or 2 day trial and then receive their sentence. They certainly have enough evidence from just one murder to kill him off. This sham has gone on much too long.

Would have sent a more powerful message to his followers to have stood him up against a wall at capture and executed him by firing squad. They would have respected that treatment.
