I think so, frankly I could care less when celebritries, sports figures, musicians, politicians pass on. If I didn't know the person directly, I really don't care. The media is now getting a lot of mileage out of former President Gerald Ford's passing and I don't understand why. The man was never even elected to the Presidency, got there by default when Nixon was impeached, and accomplished absolutely nothing while in office.
Too bad we didnt throw there with him the presidents responsible for the murder of 2million civilians in Vietnam.
And GW senior for killing 200000 in Iraq.
And Ronald Reagan for supporting Saddam Hussein with billions of dollars worth of weapons and direct financial aid in exchange for waging a war against iran.
And.... the list goes on.
A lot of world leaders should have been hanging there with him.
Saddam does deserve his death, but then again as Mirmir says so do many world leaders.
Personally, I believe he should just be imprisoned; all his death is going to do is anger the rest of his followers which is only going to result in more deaths and acts of terrorism.
Also, does no one see suspicion in the fact that Saddam is going to be killed so soon? Loads of people can sit on death row for years. The only reason his death is coming so quickly is so that he can not be tried for the mass murder of the Kurds during the Iraq-Iran war. The reason for this is our governments do not want the truth being brought up during court proceedings and shown all over the world that it was in fact the British and American government that aided Saddam in the war by giving him weapons and information.
we actually should of tortured him for the rest of his life just exactly as he did to so many people. Everyday we should've beat him or did something to make him suffer.
IM SO HAPPY!!!! I told my mom i want to have a party!!! Sadam is bacicly HITLER! he is the worst man alive or was the worst man alive and that fucking jerk is finally dead he is buring in hell when he fucking belongs! killing all of those poor people! Waht a fucking jerk i hope he is burning!!!
i trult don't give a fuck...but smithee i totally agree with you... Just_the_girl_your_lookin_4 (4977) hitler is a whole lot worse. saddam killed his own people hitler killed EVERYONE!!!
Hitler did absolutely not kill everyone,
as a matter of fact he sent 200.000 troops in order to help the Finns defend from the Soviet Invasion(november 1939) of their country.
It wasnt until the allies had threatened to destroy Finnland were they not going to deny help from Germany that the Finns told the germans they had to leave and that they would have to fight the Soviet Union alone.
Also, life in France, Denmark and Norway was fine while being occupied by Germany.
Pretty much the same as being occupied by the allies.
And "Saddam killed his own people" is bullshit for the british created the iraqi borders to begin with, and the iraqi borders are such that many different people are forced to be in the same country without ever having wanted it to be so in the first place.
It was a strategic move by the British to weaken the area so that it would be easier to manipulate in the future.
To add on that, Germany absolutely never bombed hospitals.
That was a something the allies learned rapidly
leading them to systematically hide in hospitals amongst pasients while invading germany because they knew Hitler would never bomb them there.
That was off course not the case in Iraq where the Americans murdered thousands of patients with their machine working on convincing us on how "great" this whole thing was.
Forgetting the difference in need of actually commiting this crime where Germany was literally dying and the usa in iraq is just doing this to profit a few men within the country.
But this is just according to the discovery channel and im sure the American propoganda ministry can inform us better, like they have done so successfully before.
Again.. Americans, be proud.
You have every reason to be.
Everything your country stands for is just so beautiful.
Saddam did some truly disgusting things, and I don't think anyone can deny that, but he also did some good things for the middle east. Here's an example (taken from wiki).
Within just a few years, Iraq was providing social services that were unprecedented among Middle Eastern countries. Saddam established and controlled the "National Campaign for the Eradication of Illiteracy" and the campaign for "Compulsory Free Education in Iraq," and largely under his auspices, the government established universal free schooling up to the highest education levels; hundreds of thousands learned to read in the years following the initiation of the program. The government also supported families of soldiers, granted free hospitalization to everyone, and gave subsidies to farmers. Iraq created one of the most modernized public-health systems in the Middle East, earning Saddam an award from the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).
To diversify the largely oil-based economy, Saddam implemented a national infrastructure campaign that made great progress in building roads, promoting mining, and developing other industries. The campaign revolutionized Iraq's energy industries. Electricity was brought to nearly every city in Iraq, and many outlying areas.
Also, JTGYL4, If you hate Saddam so much for "killing all of those poor people!" you should also wish the same fate for the Governments of America and Britain who have ordered their armies to slaughter many innocents in their quest for oil and "peace".
I've never supported the death penalty so I don't think Sadaam shouldn't have been hanged. He should have been given a fair trial and life in prison and pay of the family of the victims he manslaughtered. But I guess it wouldn't make a difference if he was alive or not. I guess it is normal to not give a shit because its not happening to you or anyone close to you. But it could make you think.
PS Mimir2 did you also know that Regan also was secretly buying cocaine from Latin America?
Shoulda put him in a cage and carni'ed him from town to town letting people poke at him with pointy sticks.
Cell-phone video of what really happened as he was being jerked to Mohamad was brillient! I mean, come on. Give the people what they want. Anything less would have been a Barney vid.
Mimir2 chill the fuck out. Saddam and hitler suck. But i'm jewish so hitler is a lot worse to me. I i don't agree with most of the stuff the govt does. so chill
jess are u fucking kidding me. Do u know what hitler did? it's called genocide. He had jews dig their own graves and than nazis used machine guns and mowed down everyone. then they used bulldozers to puch the ppl into the graves and those who didn't die by buller wounds died by suffolcation. I could go on for hours about all the stuff that he did. but i have a life and those of u especially jess who think saddam was worse than hitler are fucking useless sluts!
Whatever. It's all good. You wanna post it on your sleave that you're a Jew? The "fact" that you practice Judaism should have NEVER entered the conversation. It's simply pathetic that you feel it necessary to mention it.
Still, it's your sleeve. It's your pathetic crutch towards reason.
I must say, I agree with Jess here. TTT you said "i'm jewish so hitler is a lot worse to me" then proceeded to insult anyone that disagrees with you.
When I was 7 years old a girl called Megan Brown kicked me in the balls and it hurt so bad I had to go home from school. In my opinion she was worse than both Saddam and Hitler because what she done affected me. You can't slander someone just because they have an opinion that isn't the same as yours.
It's just not normal to run around telling everyone your a Jew. Is it meant to be a warning; a plea for sympathy; a statement of entitlement? Must be tough to be a Jew. Really.
Still, you think Bob17 has "MEGAN BROWN KICKED ME IN THE BALLS" on his shirt sleeves? No. He doesn't. You know why? IT'S NOT NORMAL. That's why.
Oh. Bye the way, have I mentioned that I like eggs? I do. I like eggs.
didn't u run around saying that "i'm catholic". Do u call that not catholic also or are u just insituating that you're better than me. Cause that's just bullshit.
at least I got your sarcasm, it was cleverly disguised as another moronic comment. Don't take Tell's attitude as a face of the jewish people, if you know what I mean.
Yes, if you know what she means. Wink wink, nudge nudge, poke poke.
As for Saddam being hung that's just what he likes to tell the ladies.
Be sure to get your hands on the brand new Saddam version of hangman. Of course it's nowhere near as bad as the new brand name coffee in Afghanistan, Osama Bin Latte.
And yes it is normal not to give a shit, especially after eating too much fruit.
Peace.
Thanks, someone for once agrees with a statement i make
i think they should have stuck needles in him. but only one per day. and keep doing it until: 1) hes got like 1000 in him, 2) theres no more room for any more or 3) hes died of blood loss
The Israeli government planted 600.000 land mines in Lebanon just before the end of the war in march last year.
Those mines will be dismantling civilians by the thousands for years to come.
Literally all of them innocent.
Those mines had nothing to do with winning the war, their only purpose was to mutilate innocent civilians.
Those mines are paid for with American taxpayer money and sent to Israel as a donation labeled as "third world aid".
Which Americans routinely appeal to in order to show how much more altruistic they are than the rest of the world.
Why arent you guys arguing for the hanging of high profile members within Israel/USA responsible for the mutilation of civilians in Lebanon?
Mimir, the guardian of the spring of wisdom at the root of Yggdrasill, has spoken! All hail to his/her infinite wisdom!
All you ever do is seem to spew out facts and figures you find from the internet! What a waste of time! I never said that i wasnt "arguing for the hanging of high profile members within Israel/USA responsible for the mutilation of civilians in Lebanon" i was just voicing my opinion about saddam!
p.s: i dont want to argue for the hanging of high profile members within the US and Israel. it will involve being hit by a barrage of statistics by you, with is a fate worse than death!
I really didnt feel your hatred towards all who commit such crimes, just this one guy.
It seemed to me like your attitude was being controlled by propaganda shows/media.
if you are sad do not be
saddam lives on
i keep his memory alive
i get on message boards sometimes as saddam hussein
DIRKA DIRKA
keeping the memory alive-cumming near you
I get the impression that what you said may have been directed towards Mimir. I for one, and I'm sure Mirmir feels the same, am not sad or upset at the fact Saddam has died. I am just annoyed at the hypocrosy of people who will cheer Saddams death as they talk about the bad things he has done, and at the same time cheer their goverment for the "great work" that they are doing.
Suggestions on torturing a man who was responsible for the death of millions. . .
Razorblades. One inch long slice on his body for every death he is responsible for. Bathtub. Add rubbing alcohol. Soak for 5 minutes. Rinse. Reopen all cuts with a fresh razorblade. Sprinkle with salt. Rub vigorously. Rinse with bleach. Reopen all cuts with fresh razorblades. Sprinkle with lye. Wrap in saran wrap and place in the sun for 3 hours.
Ya' know what...I personally don't really give a f***. I didn't know the guy, I mean sometimes I'm sad if it tis' a famous musician or actor I loved or whatever who died...but Saddam, I mean wtf? Ya', I mean shit happen's just as bad as what he did EVERY fuckin' day - village's get bombed by the god damn ARMY for f*** sake; the Army, (in my opinion) is an evil, faschist organization and they are equally as bad as Saddam, and ppl don't give a f*** about them, it's legal somehow for them to go around bombing innocent women, children & villages every day...but oh no, when 'Saddam' did shit everybody gave a damn! There's terrorist's, gang's, rapist's, and any other ppl just as guilty every day of torture & shit equal to Saddam's 'crimes', but nobody cares - ya' know, mankind is pathetic, we take ourselves so f***in' seriously, it's sad...who the hell care's about any of this? He's dead, move-on ppl! He would've done better rotting in jail I suppose, but whatever, he's dead...let's just live, we're all gonna' die anyway, HOORAY!
And GW senior for killing 200000 in Iraq.

The whole thing is a fucking puppet show.
