Saddam died beautiful. It's the truth and you know it.

LOL. What?!?!

Seriously man, I know the shit has truly hit the fan in Iraq right now and * sigh * it was actually better under Saddam, hate saying that. But they (Iraqis) deserve much better than that or the current choas over there. This relativism where Saddam is being made some type of hero is a bit disgusting to be honest. The man was a cold blooded killer, nothing noble about him whatsoever. He was a gangster from his youth and he only got worse with age. Granted that his excecution took place in a rather distasteful and undignified fashion. But keep in mind he was probably alot worse to the countless Iraqi dissidents and disenters he personaly excecuted. I'm not saying two wrongs make a right, but he's certainly no hero.

have you read some of this guy's other sh*t. he comes across as a racist smart-ass know it all that hates everybody.

rather entertaining.

There is a good point made there. Violence has been a part of Iraq ever since the fall of the persian empire. Even more so in the 20th century. From the grand mufti's rebellion against the british to the reign of saddam, has been marked by bloodshed.

Saddam was egotistical. That doesn't make him any more of a man than anyone else. That explains his actions. Violence seems to be the universal language of the middle east.

I believe we should only listen to what FOX news tells, right?

Obviously not. Fox news is extreme. But why listen to the other extreme end of the spectrum.

maybe there is a language barrier between you and i. i just said he comes across as a smartass who doesn't like anyone...and he's kinda racist.

it's mild sophistry, but unlike John Stewart, he's serious.

read his other stuff.

quote:

Brecher analyzes military strategy, tactics, and contexts of ongoing and past conflicts. While Brecher lacks military experience or formal training in war, he has credited himself as self-educated out of a personal, life-long obsession with warfare. He has also described himself as fat slob who spends approximately 8 hours a day on the internet searching for war news. Brecher describes himself as a "war nerd".

Oh good greif...
Gee, we should really take this one seriously.

"He kept that bag of snakes in order"

Yeah with fear, torture, and an iron hand.

Something us and our Iraqi allies aren't
willing to stoop down to...
