He WILL be hung, or shot, or whatever way they choose to go about killing him.  An automatic appeal might matter in other cases, but who honestly believes he will be found innocent?  LOL!  I think everyone was happy when they caught him, because we all knew he would pay.  It's no surprise to me that he was found guilty.

Sure, free Saddamn at ground zero. You're on your own with that Bin Laden idea, though.

Saddam verdict is not in the American poll, but Bush Administration has got it timed to benefit out of it. They would be thoroughly disappointed.

It probably happens more often, but a lot less often than if the Iraqi Defense Force was there.  For all the issues that has been brought up, Saddam already have everyone beat when he was the dictator.  He killed thousands that opposed him.

Yes, this plus the fact that the US election is near will result in a worse blood bath. They should delay the verdict for a week; fewer lives will be lost, American and Iraqi. The US government has the power to delay the court, they're lying if they say they can't.

The trial is the way to go. I know it is a pain to watch this thing drag out. We've got to give the Iraqi people a chance to develop their democracy. This is a great exercise in controlling impulses to just kill someone with out a trial. The people of Iraq need this to know that if the worst among has been treated fairly then if they go to court they will also be treated fairly.\n\nIt sure would have been great to kill him in the short run, but in the long term success of Iraq as a free nation this is the way it has to happen.

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.

He was impeached, but he wasn't convicted.  Impeached is like indicted.  It doesn't mean you have been found guilty.

Chances are they'll end up letting him slip back into the hands of the insurgency, then it'll be a huge problem.  They should just kill him and get it over with before that happens.

Once they were acquitted for the murder they couldn't be tried again. However, there are serious doubts as to whether or not the story is true.

What do I think about it?  I think the U.S. saved Saddam from killing more of his innocent people.    What will happen?  Well, in reading Revelations from the bible, there will be more war.    China, Iran, N. Korea, Israel, Palestines, etc.

Saddam is destined to the gallows.

It somehow seems Saddam was doing a good job. Things are really messed up now after his departure and all attempts to fix things over there has failed so far.

"Former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein has been convicted of crimes against humanity by a Baghdad court and sentenced to death by hanging. \nHe was found guilty over his role in the killing of 148 people in the mainly Shia town of Dujail in 1982."\nWhy is he sentenced?Because elections are nearby so Bush must prove somehow that he is making progresses in his "war against terror"...

Saddam committed his alleged crimes within the boundaries of Iraq and should be subject to Iraqi justice if indeed he is found to be guilty.  I have believed all along that the Iraqi people are the ones that need to handle whatever is to be Saddam's fate.  \n\nIn view of the controversy surrounding the death of Slobodan Milosevic, I am a lot more comfortable that Saddam will receive actual justice and we will not have to worry about this kind of thing putting a cloud over the whole thing.
