Have You Heard the Knoose? Hussein is Dead!

Around six in the morning Iraq time the former Dictator of that country was hanged for the crimes he committed against 148 Shias in Dujail. He was found guilty and sentenced in November and the Iraqi Appeals Court upheld the death sentence earlier this month. The death of Hussein marks the end of one long journey in the war on terror and is a great victory for the US and the Iraqi people.

Saddam Hussein was an evil man who killed for fun. His crimes against humanity can not be measured and the number of people he killed is astronomical. He ruled with fear and the penalty for stepping out of line was often death. It is refreshing to see the Iraqi courts take care of this matter and give some closure to the Iraqis who have suffered at the hands of this monster. This should put an end to the protestations of people who claimed we should have killed him the first time. Funny, those who said that seem to be the vocal opponents of his execution. I wonder how many of the Democrats who had so many bad things to say about Hussein and his WMD program will denounce his execution? It was important to put him to death to remove his influence. He can now be a martyr instead of a distraction.

Saddam's Necktie

I had the honor (and fortune) of being on the radio doing my show when Hussein was executed and I reported on the situation as news came in from various staff and news sources. I was able to be a part of history by reporting on the death of a brutal dictator but the people who have truly written the history on this are the members of our military. The US military hunted this animal down and brought him to justice. It would have been easy for any one of them to shoot him when they found him but they exercised remarkable restraint and brought him into custody. They guarded him and made sure he was well taken care of during his trial and until he was handed over to the Iraqis. Our military heroes must be happy tonight knowing that they have reached a historic milestone in the war on terror.

I am happy that this man received a fair trial at the hands of his own people and that they were able to exact justice on this barbarian. I am equally happy that we are one step closer to achieving our goals. I hope that the others who have wronged the average Iraqi citizens receive the same fairness when they are prosecuted and, if found guilty, are similarly dealt with. Hussein is now in Hell with Mohammad and Satan, his evil relatives.

I guess the greatest thing in all of it is that Hussein went to his death knowing that the “evil” George Bush helped send him there and is still alive and in power…
