So we are hanging someone after accusing him of crimes against humanity?

[La Lioness Priyanka]

Does this sound hypocritical to anyone?

Not that i am a saddam hussein...but really...

[Cessna Invesco Palin]

1. Crimes against humanity, actually. n/t

[La Lioness Priyanka]

2. corrected!

[unpossibles]

3. yes. And I'm sure the US arms dealers will be found guilty as well

as accomplices. Oh wait. No they won't.

[havocmom]

4. And the GOP Congress made legal methods for which we executed

war criminals using them in the past.

Yeah, a bit hypocritical. Everything this GOP Congress and administration has done defies logic and decency.

[The Stranger]

5. Hugely, horribly, catastrophically hypocrical, even if I'm the only one

here who can admit it.

[Sequoia]

6. Bush yelled gleefully: "Hang 'em high" ain't legal here!"

I thinks it's disgusting and barbaric.

[Solly Mack]

7. Oh, but the spin will be " a sovereign Iraq is hanging Saddam"

but yes, the US, a nation where torture is government policy, is hanging Saddam for crimes against humanity.

Yes, the US, a nation that frames its own crimes as "mistakes" (so the guilty can walk free) is hanging Saddam.

[Freedom_from_Chains]

8. Already I have run into too many people here at DU

who fail to understand that we are the ones who brought Saddam to power and while he was doing our bidding for us, which he was during the time period these crimes were committed, he was A-O.K. It was only after he quit doing our bidding that he was a bad guy.

Coincident? I think not.

[Sparkle]

12. Righto!

[OwnedByFerrets]

9. And it seems that over 600.000 were willing to die

in order for this dictator to hang......at least that is what monkeyboy would have us believe.:puke:

[Karenca]

10. Hypocritical?

Yes, without a doubt!

What I cannot still figure out is:

Who are these 35% that still support this administration?

[philb]

11. not sure,

maybe we could ask some of his victims...............fuck it, too late for that

[kath]

13. A bumper sticker that I see at the pool where my daughter's team

swims:

Why do we kill people who kill people to show that killing people is wrong?

[porphyrian]

14. Killing him shows killing is wrong. - n/t

[pdxmom]

15. It's part of that culture of life thing. All lives are precious, except

those that "they" deem aren't.
