I can't believe they did it so quickly. They just said 2 days ago that it would be within the next 30 days and would not tell the media when. They also said they plan to video it and now here it is 2 days later and they did it. The Iraqi's do not play around. I think I am shocked that it was done. How do you feel?

I am glad they did it. I hope it was taped. I am surprised they shot him instead of hanging him (or at least the newcaster said they shot him instead).

That's the end of one era. But i'm not sure whether he is deserved. What does it means to the arabic worls or the whole world?

I am amazed that it was done so soon. But then if they didn't wait, the chances of someone trying to break him out would be less. I have heard people say that he should have stayed in prison for life. But I don't agree. He killed so many people, why give him the chance to keep terrorizing people through his court irruptions, pictures, etc... In addition, the money that is needed to keep him locked up is money that Iraq could put to a much better use.

Well I sort of think it would have been better to make him suffer a little more and think about what he had done and maybe get secret information theat I think went with him...I think it would have been better to give him life in prison with hard labour.... he is at peace now probably in a better place and we are all here with the mess he has helped to create......

Yes I agree! He should have had life in prison, but then there would always be that chance of someone springing him loose. There would always be upheavels too. but to hang him so quickly!

Although he deserved to die, I personally would have liked for him to be whisked away to an unknown destination, never to be heard from again, and rot away in a dark hidden corner. He has alot of stupid followers who have no fear or love in their hearts (except for themselves), and they may seek revenge on everyone. But if this is what the Iraqi people would prefer, after all, they are the ones who have endured his torture and lived in fear for years, then so be it.

he is a dangerous guy so it's just right that they executed him. if they had not done and if they just sentenced him to life sentenced and sent him to a secluded and well guarded place there will be a lot of terrorists who will plan to rescue and free him. and once he is free again it will be a disaster. so i agree in hi execution.

I am not shocked at all at the way things are being done in the wake of the sins of man.
