well, if i were him, i'de rather get the easy way out , hanging

he knew he was never, ever getting out
you guys would make sure of that, because the US simply cannot afford a screw up the likes of "We Got him !" and then "woops , He Got Away again !"

he didnt have a chance in hell for anything going his way anymore after he got caught, the only options were :

A trial in Iraq, by Iraqi court, be defiant the whole way( which he was), call for Jihad and try and get those on the outside , to make life difficult for the "occupiers" (which he did), and try and go quickly and with his head up high, sort of looking like he knew what he was doing(he did just that), and ultimately he still controlled the situation, he refused the hood, stood tall, and die a martyr in the eyes of a select few.. ( and i'm sure there's plenty dingbats out there that will actually look at him in that way)


B be tried outside Iraq, by a proper court, with non of his defiant speeches(glass cage, mic=off), lawyers not getting assasinated, and then solitary till he goes completely senile, 15 minutes a day air time, no grass, just a concrete courtyard...Pappillion , without the escapes or friends..

i'll take obvious choice for 400 dollars Alex!

What kind of Libertarian are you. Alll of this support for Saddam... I think that you are FOR the taking of peoples property. You're just another tool proping-up facists actions as acceptable, while under the guisse of being anti-government.
Did you not notice the negatives I wrote? If you did, then return to my first response to this thread's initiator.

Further, I'm not really concerned on a personal level about Hussein, even if he'd been placed back into control of Iraq; I'm an American living in America and as such am only concerned about the brutal regime headed by George W. Bush and family.

Noriega was another Bush family retainer gone off the reservation, meaning that he'd told them to stuff it, and that after they'd given him all that money to kill people and import drugs all those years.

The nerve of the guy.

"US Army Snipers...providing surgical strikes since 1776."

My point however was not that we once had to fight for our freedom, my point was that freedom is an inalienable right, and we are all equally entitled to it IMO...even the dirty unwashed savage masses in Iraq.
it still doesn't compare, because there were no occupiers that occupied to pacify the region, and the rebels were those who had been living there for a while, it was a fight for territory rule

while Iraq, the occupiers ARE the ones helping the local populace, and the insurgents are 3rd party, simply seeking to cause casualties and instability no matter what. they don't want territory rule, they want casualties, if they wanted territorial rule, they'de keep quiet like a mouse untill AFTER the Coalition left, and THEN they would over throw the establisehd gouvernement

let's face it , they want US blood, and it's easier there, then if they have to come find it in the US... a lot easier. unfortunately

You, clearly, don't think like Saddam . . .or even have a clue how he saw the world.

Saddam did not want to die.
Saddam was pulled out of a 'spider hole.'
Saddam was having people killed even while in prison.
His chances of changing the game while in prision would have much better than when dead. -- he knew this.

After he was caught, untill he was caught, he was indeed a coward, he tried hard to wipe that image away again...

common, can you honestly believe that he would still have any hope of getting out ? do you think he felt he had a chance of escaping from US custody??

Did Bill Clinton think he could drag a Monica problem thru a trailer park with the ease of a 50 on a string?

You should study the man. (Saddam) Just a quick overview will give you the answer to your Q.

There's a dirt bag kid in jail somewhere that shot a cop at the Pomona Court House. WE should be so swift in hanging. We should have hung this assbite the next day.... at the Pomona Court House.

Blah, blah, blah, blah.

Noriega was just another murdering dope dealer. All he got was what was coming to him.

The TV video that cuts away before he drops is posted all over the place, but here is a video that shows the drop.

It's low quality and doesn't capture it too well.

So, you're not interested in the rule of law, as long as someone is killed by the state?
