Do you think that Saddam Hussein should have been sentenced to hang?

he has to stand up too what he has done, but it may start alot more of a war then what is already happening........ so not to sure what the outcome would be if he was to have that happen.......

During his 23-year reign of terror, Hussein (pictured at left in 1983) was responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. For his first trial, he's accused of ordering the massacre of more than 140 Iraqis in the village of Dujail -- a small footnote in a career of brutality. now think whether he shud be hanged or not...

I know that Saddam is a mass murderer, but I'm not sure that killing him would send the right message to the third world countries. Those people already place too little value on human life, and by people in the US, UK, etc. advocating killing someone who is so high profile wouldn't set a good example. I do think he should be placed in solitary somewhere where he isn't allowed to run his mouth and incite insurgents.

no i don't think so

I saw on TV where people were celebrating in the streets in iraq.. so i dont think that is causing too much trouble lol... so yes i think that it is right

i think so

i am so happy about it

Yes, I think he got what he deserves! The problem will be what happens after???

No. No one has a right to take a life. Also if he hangs then he becomes a martyr and there is no defence against martyrs.

Saddam Hussain has caused a lot of unrest in our world. Some of his actions had led to big desructions. He used to live in a palace whereas People from Iraq was not that wealthy. In my opinion he should be hanged. But, then this action may create some political unrest and we may have another fight in Iraq.

I think he should be sentenced to whatever the courts have decided;)+

What would you think is a good punishment for him? To keep him in prison where he can still pull strings and kill innocent women,men and CHILDREN? What would you want done if someone would kill your family? Personally, I say an eye for many eyes. Don't do the crime and you do not have to worry about these conquences. I believe it is more humane to hang him then to keep him alive in prison for the rest of his life. Their prison are much different from ours anyways.

Hanging Sadaam would be like cutting off our noses to spite our faces. If we hang him, we're asking for it. We should know that much from past responses. Here is what I think should happen to Sadaam. He should go to prison. While in prison, he should be treated with dignity but not pampered. That is, proper protection, health care, and nourishment. He should be allowed to practice Islam (not to be confused with terrorist acts), and guards shouldn't nod, wink, and allow abuse of him to go on. He would have a choice of simply sitting in his cell and vegetating for the rest of his life (getting out only to exercise, shower, and whatever any other hard-time inmates are allowed to do), or he could also decide at some point to spend his life doing something useful such as training working dogs. I would hope and pray that, by showing him compassion, we would be helping compassion to rub off on him. One thing that any of us who pray should be doing is praying for him and seeing him as one of God's little lambs who has lost his way. When the time comes that he finds his way again, we should be joining God and the angels in rejoicing!

no the decision was wrong . yes this all episode will bring trouble in iraq thats for sure . its been nearly 7 hours now and the reactions of the people from all over the world are against america . god knows what will happen now but its for sure americans will be seen differently today onwards .

first ofall.,we should discuss about saddams deeds.saddam has killed many people in his country who are against him.but again and again he was elected by the people of iraq.And in this course he demolished all enemies emrging as dictator and so its the people of iraq who has to decide his future its not america.If saddam is hangged what about bush? he is responsible for WAR AND many people weere kille din this war and no person of any ccontry has power to interept in any other countries internal policies.so bush should also be hanged as he killed many people during the war and many families were destroyed.

I think he should get what he deserves, but I think hanging him will cause more trouble for our troops that are in Iraq.
