#1 I'm sure they'll assign him a public defender and everything'll be fine...

The Iraqi equivalent of Rick Moranis in "Ghostbusters 2", no doubt.

#2 If he is put to death, I sincerely hope it's not hidden to the public and sterile (lethal injection). I want it shown on Al-Jazeera, piped to the entire Arab Street. Method: lock him in a hermetically sealed glass room in full military regalia, cigar, sword, and rifle...pump in phosgene gas! My thoughts will still be on that poor doggy they experimented on!!

#3 "phosgene gas"
smn,

Congratulations! You've hit a new low. Below are the casualties and deaths from the gas in WWI. Maybe your idea of a European vacation is to piss on WWI graves. Your snide remarks are deafening. Your hatred for the West is clear. FYI, they were actual humans, not dogs.

Casualties From Gas - The Numbers
Country-- Total Casualties-- Death
Austria-Hungary-- 100,000-- 3,000
British Empire-- 188,706-- 8,109
France-- 190,000-- 8,000
Germany-- 200,000-- 9,000
Italy-- 60,000-- 4,627
Russia-- 419,340-- 56,000
USA-- 72,807-- 1,462
Others-- 10,000-- 1,000

#4 Saddam was quite fond of gassing other people, child included isn't it?

#5 He who lives by the Gas dies by the gas.

Personally I think jam him into a shredder feet first.

#6 PR: I agree that smn is waaaaay over the top often, but I think the "dogs" he referred to were actual dogs they were testing different gases on (but it was actually al Qaeda-not Sammy-doing it in Afghanistan...our boys found video of it a few years ago). I don't think he was referring to WWI! Could be wrong, though, I'll let smn reply. I know he/she stated phosgene, which as you point out was used in WWI, but I think smn was referring to the testing we found video of in Afghanistan.

#7 I've always thought they should hang him from that big arch of crossed swords he built in downtown Baghdad. Make for a nice visual.

#8 BA,

I know that she is referring to the CNN video. But, I also know what she means with her feceious Leftist innuendo. As you say, I will let her explain without using discardable fillers.

#10 nothing dramatic or colorful: make him dig a hole in the desert and shoot him in the head with his own gold pistol. Capture it on video and film as you place a latrine over the hole.

#11 Thanks for the correction BA #6, you are right on your analysis, I guess that doggy experiment really got to me, whoever did it!! I was however correct on gassing Saddam!
