when saddam is hung, do you think the gates of hell will be opened?

We should not worry about the gates of hell opening for someone else, but we should have more of a concern of where our soul is destined too.

i wonder what will happen to. I PRAY TO GOD he either gets death or life. this will he a very important test for the iraqi government. if they screw up, then people will be more angry at bush. If they do it right, it will show improvements in Iraq. So pretty much: he will prolly get death or life. I'd rather see him get life. so he would suffer in an american jail, if he is killed, he'd be seen as a  martyr and stir up more war.

Yes and No.\n I dont support the death penalty as a whole but I do believe some crimes warrant it. You have to look into the extenuating circumstances on everything, nothing is the same.\nSaddam was evil and did torture his own people, but at the same time, our country supplied him with weapons and helped keep him in power, so where is our responsibility in this?\n Politically I think it will benefit the Republicans greatly and re energize their core base into thinking they are doing something.\n In Iraq I dont think it will help any since he at sentencing he ya know told his people to overthrow the infidels(us) \n So we shall see wont we.

Saddam Hussein successfully kept a lid on the Shia/Sunni schism, but we've upset the apple cart.  Not too long ago, the warmongers used to shut people up by asking, "Do you think the Iraqi people were better off under Saddam Hussein?"  Now the answer is clear.  YES THEY WERE!  More are dying now that he ever purged, and there's chaos.

Amen brother.\n\nDid you see the South Park episode where Saddam gets sent to heaven for punishment.\n\n\nIt gives me the shudders just thinking about it- no choices, no sex, no yogurt flavored pretzels...\nIf you ask me the best way to be a dictator is to convince everyone your the "good" guy. That's what Hitler did.\n"God" is no different.

I like your line of thinking but I don't know who your talking about.\nIf your talking about saddam... I'd like to see him suffer a little before his death.\nIf your talking about a child molester your death sentence will fit them justly.\nGruesome executions like that may act as a deterrent for criminals. Lord knows jail doesn't scare them any longer. The hardened criminals are fighting to get back behind bars in the U.S.

Qaddafi learned to be rational after seeing Saddam pulled out of that hole.\n\nThe psycho Mullahs in Iran will be overthrown by the Iranian people, and though Bin Laden has been rendered combat ineffective--justice or a J-DAM will find him

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.

I hope worse.  He should be sent to the front line in Iraq.  I bet the grinning imbecile will run.

wow, I for one can't wait for the beheadings to start!\n\nThe answer is no.  It would be very very hard for the entire government aparatus to be wiped out like that.  There would always be a few ministers off on business, or on holiday.

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.

do you mean will he be standing in a prisoners box responding to a tribunal? I sure hope so!

I am a Buddhist and I think you asked a very good question.\n\nH.H. the Dalai Lama isn't going to Hell. He'll be reborned as the 15th Dalai Lama. :-)\n\nWho cares what Christians think, that didn't stop him from being the Buddha of Compassion that he is :-)

Yeah it has. If anything good came out of the disaster of Iraq it is that Saddam will face the ultimate in justice. \n\n300,000 dead victims of Saddam over 20+ years. WOW that is a horrendous figure of carnage. Saddam deserves his fate completely and totally.\n\nWith over 500,000 dead in the last three years due to the invasion and occupation of Iraq, Do you think that the hangman could do a 3 for 1 deal? Saddam, Bush and Blair?\n\nDare to dream

that would be called "hell"

yes i believe a small or mayb a large section the baath ( hope i've spelled that right ) sect of iraq society will martyr saddam.\nprobably not on the scale of buddha.  but enough 2 leave a power-struggle or a vacuum in an already destabilised country.\ni think the toppling of a dictator well/may make a continuing civil war in iraq 4 decades 2 come.\nthanx gw, \nhow thoughtful and sensible, NOT!\nthe lack of consideration by 1 texan village idiot & what he'll do 2 steal oil, hasn't escaped a growing band of disgruntled westerners attention & left us thinking was it really worth it.
