Zacarias Moussaoui gave a clear testimony that he hates Americans and would kill more if given the chance. To the question "Are you insane?" he also replied, "Thank God I am not." He's not mentally insane in terms of psychological excuses. But he has given himself over to evil and is letting another power control him. Does he deserve the death penalty?

It is my belief that the death penalty is not meant for Mr. Moussaoui.  He is clearly a conspirator and should be  taken at his word. His own testimony should be interpreted as an intent to continue his conspiracies.  \n\nSince any punishment may lead to his martyrdon, I think that his fate should be put in his god's hands.  Take him on a destroyer to the Indian Ocean about 20 miles from the coast.  Supply him with a boogie board and about a dozen fresh superficial cuts, just enough to draw blood.  Dump him in the ocean and point him in the direction of the coast and tell him to start paddling.  This is where the destroyer will come in handy.  Any boats that would try to assist can be blown out of the water.

The detainees are not charge with any crimes and yet they continue to be their in that nightmare. The detainees are in what you call a legal black whole and the only thing that can be of aid to them is strong eemaan (faith) and trust in Allaah. And yes Islaam forbids suicide but we are only getting the details from Gitmo Officials and not that of three prisoners because they are dead. But I'm sure they have left letters and they have families who really knows the truth. The Prisoners are being raped, tortured, humiliated, and the beatings are horrific, so if they did kill themselves this probably would be why. So far only 26 detainees of Gitmo have been release due their non affiliation with Al-Qaedah or even having a criminal background they were just detailed for no reason and maybe their are some who are there for 9/11 or affiliation with Al-Qaedah. I don't feel like they killed themselves rather Gitmo Officials definitely had something to do with it and even if they did help Al-Qaedah would this be humane for an individual to treat a prisoner in this matter (and most of them are American citizens of the British, Canada etc.)? Why not charge them with a crime so that they could face the death penalty if they are found guilty otherwise it just looks like the Gitmo Officials unjustly killing or torturing for the fun of it.

when you say death penalty, i believe its hanging?\nI wonder how this one time leader would feel, if his head was severed in a market place, with crounds of jeering people, as i believe is the traditional arab way?\nWell, if its good enogh for princess's ?\n\nBut then.....didnt the us instigate all this, because he was a Barbarian, not to be trusted with long range chemical weaponry?.....but then theyve side stepped having to jail him for life themselves.....(even they wouldnt hang him, with the worlds media)...so they let someone else do it.

If you murder someone; You should be PUNISHED!!! I don't give a damn if it was Putin himself! Putin is clearly a dumbass anyways! I mean if he expects the world to believe that he had no part of that man's death!

Saddam Hussein did some terrible things, but I don't support the death penalty under any circumstances.  Let's not forget that the U.S. government was friendly with him up until the day he invaded Kuwait.  Furthermore, he is to be hanged, which is rather draconian.

I think he should have been impeached. He owns stock in the oil  and look at our gas prices, his family is friends with the bin laddin clan-hence forth bin laddin is still out there and his family members were safely escorted out of the USA after 9-11. And the US soldier death toll is higher than it should have been .Saddum Hussin was in a hole like a trapped rabbit-and where is Bin Laddin ???Out in the open laughing at us AMERICANS not Bush.And why cause he is not scared of us for some reason.

I can’t speak for everyone, but Saddam’s sentence was given to him by an Iraqi court. Under Iraqi law he has been convicted of a capital crime. It is completely up to the Iraqi people to decide what punishment he should suffer for his crimes against the Iraqi people.  I personally think hanging is too good for him after what he did to hundreds of thousands of innocent people.

Saddam unfortunately gets a death sentence by the great justice of US govn!!! And I confused by the interpretations of some European foreign ministers about this decision. No one told anything against this decision of the US govn in spite of the death sentences being forbidden in European countries!!! I couldnt understand their contradiction.\n\nA.Öcalan? His freedom is one of our EU reforms!!!\n\nSo, US/EU or Türkiye? Who is barbarian?

I'm sure he is a repug - those people are the most hypocrite of all.  \n\nEverything that they hate in others they commit themselves.  I think he should be jailed!!

It's should be an OUTRAGE TO THE WORLD that this rich tyrant in Iran dare to announce he wants to wipe another country off the planet. WHAT IS THE UN FOR?  Is the whole world going to back down and let these possessed guerillas rant on with their threats to humanity???????  This is like a nightmare coming to fore.

He should be locked up. He is dangerous. Are you writing from the U.S.? Aren't the jails overcrowded there? Maybe this is why he couldn't be jailed.

I'm glad he didn't get the death penalty. It is ultimately what he would want. A chance to be martyred buy the American war machine. I hope he rots.

This blog says- In Iran an 18-year-old named Nazanin is sentenced to be put to death by hanging. Her crime? Defending herself and her 16-year-old niece from being raped by three men. During the attack she drew a knife and stabbed one of the attackers. In doing so she succeeded in driving the attackers off and saved the two of them from whatever fate awaited them at the hands of the three men.\n\nShe was subsequently arrested, tried and found guilty of a crime. At her trial she said in her defense; "I wanted to defend myself and my niece. I did not want to kill that boy. At the heat of the moment I did not know what to do because no one came to our help." Her appeals have failed and without severe pressure from outside sources she will die for this "crime". \n\nThis is shocking ! I hope the Muslim community wakes up... This could happen to your daughter...  don't you care?

Okay then, it's fairly obvious where you stand.\n\nI agree in principle with this statement:\n"This is the least Saddam deserved," \n\nThough I do not like hanging as a method of execution.

Woo hoo what a nutter! \nFollowing ur logic(!)if someone who is subsequently found to be INNOCENT is tortured to death (oops), then the people responsible should also be tortured. I notice u didnt include murderers in ur little rant or did u just forget to include them? U really should be sectioned and placed in a secure unit for everybodys safety. If anyone could be called 'evil' heres its u!

The loonies always have an excuse. Like, "Moussaoui was drugged and hypnotized to admit ties to Al-Qaeda", or "That's not really Moussaoui, it's a fake look-alike working for the government".\n\nP.S. Spelling his name is ridiculously tough, like a written tongue-twister :)\n\nEDIT : "He's trying to find out what happened, what's wrong with that?". Given the sheer enormity of the tragedy of 9/11, it's the same stupid attitude that Holocaust deniers have. "Oh, well, we're just questioning the Holocaust to see what REALLY happened, nothing wrong with that". When 99% of them are just closet anti-Semites.
