So, it's finally been decided that Saddam Hussein is to face the death penalty, and will be hanged.
What are your views on this? Do you think it's a wise move, or do you think that nothing will come of it, and nothing will change?
Well, I hear there is to be an appeal, so depending on how that is handled anything could happen. There has been mention in daily papers about intimidation and corruption in the trial. Whatever the case, thousands of grieving families who lost loved ones at the hands of himself and his henchmen speak volumes and there is little doubt that there can be anything but a strong punishment due. If that be hanging then so be it. The advantage of execution is that no-one can then attack the jail he is kept in, so at least on that front, prison staff and other prisoners need not fear an attack on a prison. With him being a very hated man it is possible enemies may want to kill him themselves if he is not executed. On the other hand, an execution could lead to him becoming a martyr to his followers, but there are some things you can't stop.
