Because the videos may be lost on other threads, perhaps this thread can be the reference for posting.

The hanging video is on Google, and there are some scenes from the trial. There may be other important historical video footage that we shouldn't miss. Please bring them here. Thanks.

No worries - I only wanted to add that video to your storehouse - and did the copy/paste thing wrong. Apologies.

I think the storehouse idea is excellent.

[doug from upland]

Thanks. Those are some of the ones people want to overlook. He did unspeakable things to an enormous number of human beings. Justice took far too long.

While I completely agree that the man deserved to die and the world is a better place for it, I cannot understand the desire to watch him be killed.

Really, people now are no better than the masses who used to come to the town square to watch beheadings, stonings, burnings, evisceration, etc. Very base behavior, if you ask me. Nothing but blood lust.

It is enough to know that he is dead.

Here's an online tool to capture online videos and save them locally on your own hard drive. In this era of vanishing videos, spread the word.

This YouTube video is mistakenly entitled "Leaked Footage of Saddam's Execution" but it is actually from a March '06 telephone interview with Saddam from Al-Fayhaa TV(Iraq). Saddam threatens Izzat Al-Duri, believes Iraq is nothing without him, he's still the president, and speeches are his bag.

Thanks for the ping.

[hophead]

Thats hilarious!!

[Anti-Bubba182]

That is a good one.

[Paleo Conservative]

The lighting was rather poor. They should have had two cameras. We don't get to see Sadam get to the end of the rope.

Here's one (pretty poor quality) of him after he was hanging around. In this one he's just lying around.

Swinging with Saddam
