They probably felt the image would prove to be oppressive to homosexuals.

ALERT: Saddam’s Crimes Against Humanity **GRAPHIC VIDEO MATERIAL**

As the trial of former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein resumes, the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies is posting 4 videos of actual torture and murder that took place under Saddam Hussein’s regime. 

FDD President Cliff May notes: “Television news, understandably, will not broadcast such videos. But they are, nevertheless, an important record of Saddam Hussein’s crimes against humanity that should be available to the public as his trial resumes.”

WARNING: This material is extremely shocking and graphic in nature. It should not be viewed by children.  Also, it may be necessary to turn the volume down before watching the 4 separate chapters. 

Please note, each chapter may take several minutes to download.

Chapter 1  http://fdd.typepad.com/fdd/files/1.wmv

Chapter 2  http://fdd.typepad.com/fdd/files/2.wmv

Chapter 3  http://fdd.typepad.com/fdd/files/3.wmv

Chapter 4  http://fdd.typepad.com/fdd/files/4.wmv

The contrast with Fox News' site is amazing.

They have skulls in their background graphic and a bad pic of Saddam.

It is incredible these news sites are decorating their graphics with his lifespan like they do for good people.

1937-2006 is not worthy of a murderer.

So they have no problem showing sniper footage of our soldiers getting shot...and as I type this showing live the results of a triple car bomb...yet they want to censor what pics we see of Saddam with his neck broken?

Just when I thought CNN couldn't become more of a joke.

Yup! This tyrant faces the consequences for his years of tyranny - beings executed in a much more humane manner than he executed many of his adversaries.

And CNN gives him a dignified picture with the expression of a great classical pianist on a CD cover. I wonder if any of their blogs carry the words RIP...

CNN isn't alone. Check out one of the graphics at the New York Times (via Federal Review):

He's like Walt Disney in that picture.
