[Omega Weapon]

Considering what you've posted so far, I don't think I'll miss it much.

WMDs? Saddam didn't have them.

9-11? Saddam was not involved.

Aiding Al Qaeda? Iraq was a secular government and Al Qaeda favors religious rule. Saddam and Al Qaeda were enemies.

Killing his own people? Evidence suggests Iran gassed the Kurds as an act of war, and in any event, the US Government has killed more Iraqis than Saddam's regime ever did.

Hmph.

US Government has killed more Iraqis than A LOT of people that are convicted. Just because he isn't the worst person in the world doesn't mean he doesn't deserve to die. Also, Saddam personally raped like 400 people. Twaaat.

That's really a philosophical statement, about deserving... but I can agree with that. It's just that the 'deserving' part has been muddled by the dog and pony show the White House called a trial.

Also, Saddam personally raped like 400 people.

Do you have a source for this?

Twaaat.

Fantastic.

I used to, until I started to study some stuff for myself, and saw how incredibly skewed such sources of information can be.

I'm not defending him personally, because I don't know him. I do know, however, that a lot of the stuff he was accused of was blown up  in order to expedite his permaban, and in a way, legitimize the invasion of Iraq.

And I have to ask, what "way" ? What dastardly plan did he have? To build missiles and launch nookular weapons at NYC? Everything suggests he was nothing more than a tin-pot dictator, like the plethora that sip on champaign and give the same brutal orders to their security services, as we discuss this. Just because he was plastered all over the television and made to look more 'shifty' than the rest of them really doesn't change the fact that Iraq was a craphole before the invasion, crippled by sanctions and with half a million dead children because of them, incapable of threatening any of its neighbors, much less the USA, or me personally.

The thing is, we didn't convict Hussein. His own fuckin' Iraqi's did. Sure, you can say we bullied him or whatever other stuff you wanna say, but the bottom line is he was a dickweed and it bit him in the ***.

Two tips: Shut the **** up and stop being a rebel.

I hate that bullshit about how 'no one deserves to die'. Did hitler not deserve to die? Did Jack the Ripper not deserve to die? I could go on, but the point is, preserving the 'sanctity of human life' and how 'all life is precious' is not entirely true. It is sad some choose to take the gift of life and do evil with it, but an evil life is an evil life and nothing can change that fact.

We're all quite extreme when it comes to opinions, aren't we?

I guess so.

Something I've learned on this forum, you don't have to have any substantial proof of an opinion, yet you'll still be right. God bless this forum.

I really wanted to give Omega Weapon some sort of warning here, but I at least somewhat agree with him on at least some general principles and the rest of you are being more jerky than he is. Just because you all don't agree with him doesn't mean you can tell him to shut up, mmm'kay?

Although, on the other hand, you know what you're doing Omega. I'd try to fly a little more under the radar if I were you. After all, I remember when that account was registered.

Right! Like when I tell everyone that Sai and Midnight did the horizontal monster mash, they all know I'm right, even though I only have several pages of evidence

edit: For a serious post, how about the horde of his own people Saddam sentenced without fair trials? Don't give me that fair trial bullshit, because he deprived tonnes of people of just that.

That is still the funniest term ever for that particular action.

[Kinslayer]

One less tyrant, along with Ford (supporter of the latin american dictatures that killed thousands of people mercilessly).

Well, Saddam's dead, but nothing really changes. Besides he wasn't executed because of an "act of justice", he was executed in order to accomplish an US (or more especifically a Bush's) desire. That's truly shameful, it seems that if it doesn't benefit the USA, then there can never be real justice.


Not that I agree with death penalty, I don't agree, I'd rather let someone rot to death than dirt my hands with killing him.

But it's shameful that a tyrant is only punished if he swims against the current. Or the USA.

And drenrin, no one decides who deserves to die or not. UIs death a punishment? No one really knows what happens on the other side. If you want to truly punish someone yourself, let him live, but let him live a life of suffering.

Ask yourself why many prefer to commit suicide before being torutured.
