Yeah - Saddam and his sons didn't torture and rape anyone.  They are such good guys.  YOU have to be a LIBERAL/terrorist.

unfortunately no, he still has way too many followers who are looking to reinstate the "old" ways. Until the insurgents are gone, Iraq will still be a mess.

Saddam ruled because he did all of the killing.  Previous to him they killed each other.  And as soon as we leave, they will start killing each other again.  Saddam was contained (arrogant, but contained) and he had no WMD or had ever attacked anyone who didn’t' touch his boarder.  He was a evil POS, but less people died per year under his watch then have died each year since he's been out.\n\nWhether we leave now or in 10 years, our silly little installed Iraqi government isn't going to stop 300 years of civil war.  They don't want our help - they just want to kill each other.\n\nWe should have never gone in.  Someone up high in our government should have done a bit more research and listened to the experts that this was not a good idea.  Instead, we should have kept all of our forces in Afghanistan where we could have actually made a difference.

well you know I have some friends that came back from Iraq not to long ago and they tell a different story then what i see on TV.  They talk about how its a vary small percent of the people that cause the problems, most of them are glad Saddam is gone and are working hard to make there country a better place.  He told me about a bombing were some one blew them self up in a line for the Iraq police recruiting, everyone helped the people that were hurt and killed in this attack, then when they were done, all of them just got back in line. they believe so much in making things better even the threat of being blown up didn't stop them.\n\nyou might also want to pick up a book by I believe the name is General Georgia Sada (at work or I would check and give you the ISBN#) Saddam's secrets.  Its about an Iraqi general and how he helped move the WMD's out of the country before the war, interesting book.

some people amaze me .Its a long known fact that Saddam only got the power he had by being helped by the US , its also a long known fact that the weapons he had which he used to attack Kuwait and also to kill his own people were sold to him by the US and Europe Its another fact that the nuclear knowledge Iraq had was given by those i`ve already mentioned If the Kurds hadn`t stood up against Saddam which they only did because America gave them the impression they were going to join in and help them (which they had no intention of doing )they wouldn`t have been slaughtered for their punishment  Iraqi`s didn`t ask for their country to be destroyed, news programs on TV have interviewed countless Iraqi`s who say how much worse it is now than with Saddam The threat to America came because of decades of interference in the middle east . According to international law the Iraq invasion is illegal and an act of hostility

The Iraq government has the last say in it. They suffered more of his regime then we Americans have so it's really under their jurisdiction to do what they may with him.

Indeed, I wonder how long he'd last on the streets of Baghdad! I think one would have to be extremely politically correct to worry whether or not Saddam's getting a fair trial... Sad though it is - and a noble experiment - Bush's plan to bring democracy to Iraq has predictably turned to crap; give them democracy and they'll elect an autocratic cleric or madman. The Middle East typically produces characters like Saddam, essentially because that's what it wants. You can't educate people who are stuck in the Dark Ages.

Assuming that he is found innocent, and that he is released he wold not be simply placed back in the office of President of Iraq.\n\nIraq, though they seem to be dragging their feet, has a parlimentary style government in place.  That being said if Saddam wanted back in the club he would first have to get his party together, get them to win a majority of seats in the legislature, and then get himself named Prime Minister... all of that is unlikely... but possible... \n\n*assuming* that he makes it out of the trial as an innocent man.

Yes they are in civil war and until it is over and they decide who is going to lead them we won't know, it could be worse then Saddam before it is over. There is nothing that we can do to change it.

O! c'mon guys! We are talking abt a human here .I dont have any sympathy with Saddam whatsoever. But he is a human being, or at least we should remember that we are. so let just say that he should be punished for his deeds but that's not for us to decide.

we they can start by getting saddam out of power, well wait, we did that for them. then they can start by forming an independent goverment, no wait we did that too. well, i supose they need to form a top notch military power. oh hell we did that for them too. well i supose they can keep following our guidance, and learning to take control of their own country, and everything should be fine!!!

No one can control the violence in Iraq now; that is what a lot of intelligent people have been warning Bush about since before the invasion.\nOur country is 200 years old. Iraq is 5000 years old. If any country invaded the US, don't you think we'd do WHATEVER it took to get them out??\nBush is going to come back to Washington without a plan, and then he'll finally realize he's not really important anymore. Just a lame duck who lost control of America, and he'll spend the rest of his presidency in the shadows, a once arrogant warhawk now meek and subdued by the magnitude of his ineptitude.

I think it is.  The death of Saddam should put an era of Iraqi history to rest.  It may even act as a cathartic event for the country as a whole and allow the present govt. to move forward and tackle the many issues currently facing them.
