Saddam Hung
Wow, it is really sad to see how pathetic our country is. We actually hung someone ‘legally,’ which I’m pretty sure is the first in a long while… like a few decades. Not only does this prove that we are very barbaric, but also illogical. It may seem it to hang someone since they have hung and tortured many people during their life, but we do not have that right. We can not judge them because we are not divine. We are not perfect. We make countless mistakes and yet we are not judged by any other human and put to torture the equal punishment. Anyways, we made Saddam who he is. America gave him the power, the force, the arms to become what he is, and likewise with Osama. Both were individuals that we selected to help us fight off the Russians. And they did a darn good job at that… until they got bored. Then comes the ‘dictatorship’ era. It sucks that we are so stupid. I want to move…

It is is very much crap. Also considering that we are supposed to be spreading Democracy, and how do with do this you may ask? By hanging the former leader of Iraq. Tsk Tsk. When you move, I’ll come with you, just give the word!

I’m glad I’ll have someone to keep me company! We’re gonna need a car if we want to goto Canada or Mexico… If not, a private plane… OK, well maybe not private (although that’d be really cool)… Maybe my cousin can hook us up with something! =] Let’s go German… Ich liebe…

Actually, we’re doing Saddam a favor by hanging him, not bombing him, which he rightfully deserves. According to the Fourth Commandment, and as interpretted by Luther’s Small Catechism, it is our government’s duty to dispense punishment to defend the people of our nation. God put those people into power for a reason, and it’s our best choice to have trust in them.

So are you saying that every person put in power is put in power for a reason? That each leader is a good leader, dispite everything that you believe that they are? If that is so, how are we a nation? We revolted against Britain. What would you call that?

I’m saying that each leader is put there for a reason. God put them there for a reason. You sound as if you’re second-guessing God. God put them there for a reason, so if you doubt the leader, you’re essentially doubting God.
I never said each leader. God could very well have put King George III on a throne to make sure that we threw him off.
I said that they are there for a reason, not necessarily a good one.

So we have a right to disagree and overthrow. I’m not doubting good, I’m doubting that humans are perfect.

We do have the right to overthrow, but that’s not the point. You’re questioning God.

chris and others (not all) have been saying “we”, america hung saddam. in which we did not, we only captured him. The Iraqi Gov’t essentially was the one who tried and hung saddam. it was not up to us or the government of u.s. to figure out how to anniliate saddam

If you think about it really, we indirectly had him persecuted. If we didn’t search him out and find him, the Iraqi Government sure wasn’t going to. Saddam was the government. I don’t think he was very likely to capture himself, thus we needed to interfere from the outside.
We as Americans also were responsible. We elected President Bush Jr. who was the one who ordered the arrest of Saddam. Had we not elected him, there was always the chance a Democratic leader would have fled from the war, and caused Saddam not to be arrested.
So basically had we not elected President Bush Jr., thus not capturing Saddam, he wouldn’t have been hanged. It’s just indirectly, but nonetheless we were the cause.

But is a good thing that we captured Sadam, after all that he’s done to other people, someone have to do something to stop him

Yes it is. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not complaining that we captured him, I was just debating that with Thomas.

I know you aren’t, I’m just making sure you don’t think that I think that we should’ve have arrested Saddam.

Really I think he deserved worse than hanging, but oh well, too late now.

Even though capturring sadam is good, don’t you think that capturing Osama is a bigger deal?

Torturing him for info, maybe better than hanging

Osama is a better target cuz hes the one who cause wtc right? So we should focus more on Osama
miztrmason
Jan. 7/2007/3:42:34 pm
Well of course Osama’s the better target now, Saddam’s dead. Getting some info from him is a good idea.

Jan. 7/2007/3:45:55 pm
before getting Sadam we should’ve go for Osama first. He’s the one that’s doing damage to us.

Well so was Saddam. He was just the puppetmastere back at home. Anyway, we were looking for Osama… intently… he’s just good at hiding.
truth_faith
Jan. 7/2007/3:49:39 pm
with all the technology we have how hard is it to find someone. And if we were looking for him intently why do we have to invade iraq( invade is not the word, but it will do)

He doesn’t exactly keep a IDS tracking dot on him at all times. We invaded Iraq to get Saddam, and to possibly get Osama out of hiding (Iraq was one place that he was prospectively located).
