Thread: Does saddam deserve to be executed?

After being interrogated by the CIA for intelligence, he will be turned over to the Iraqis to be tried. Efforts will be made to ensure that his trial will hold up to international legal scrutiny. Once he is found guilty, he will be executed.

Whatever you'd like to happen, what is listed above is what's going to happen. I'm not one to endorse the death penalty, but I make an exception for this sort of situation. I think someone guilty of crimes against humanity, genocide, or war crimes deserves the most extreme punishment. Also, unlike many death penalty cases in the U.S., I think that the chance of wrongful death is negligable.

The man deserves punishment. The Iraqis deserve justice. Both will get what they deserve thanks to preexisting laws.

>>Apparently, he has already signed a 6-figure record deal with Sony. Something about him 'busting rhymes' better than Eminem.


Are you referring to this?

He does deserve to be executed, however, like it was said before, if the USA executed him it could make him seem like a martyr to many Arabs.

However, if the Iraqis themselves were to execute him, it might lessen the whole martyr impact.

Yes the "iraquies" will execute him. We all know who is really pulling the strings and why a muslim nation will find itself with a non-muslim governing bodie... Ironic how the "iraquies" have already decided they will have the death penalty.

lol, funny

EDIT:
I think we should overthrow Govtcheez

My opinion:
he deserves to be executed, but we have no right to do it. We can try him and find him guilty/innocent for his war crimes, but we cannot specify the consequences, only the Kurds can do that. And since they have no organized government, and we can't just pass around questioniarres, i say he be held for life in prison in a neutral country...probably in the middle east, but there is the risk of someone breaking in and pulling him out...so I really can't say specifically what we should do with him.

Code:

if (person.age > 18)
    speak();
else
    stfu();

Dang. Guess I have to shut up.

^^^ lol that was fu-- oh, wait, no it wasn't.^^^

{
    stfu();
    delete person;
}

Emergency code patch added to CVS:

Code:

if(person.name == "Ken")
{
    reverse(stfu);
    speak();
}
