OK!! So it all started with those two planes crashing into WTC 1 & 2 but WTC 7 mysteriously came down, crashing on it's own. Various attempts by American public to seek justification of WTC7 implosion, have met with utter contempt and indignation by the administration but that's another story. Once there was even a commission setup under Henry Kissinger to investigate the causes but equally mysteriously that was also disbanded a few months later as families of 9-11 victims expressed their distrust in integrity of this man (HK). Nothing of this commission has ever been heard again.
Soon, there was this talk about Bin Laden hiding in Tora Bora and Bush said that "we're gonna smoke him out.." pure texas style. Osama became the most hated but most powerful character in history of mankind. Superpower went behind this guy and his sleeper cells with all it's military might. Ex imperial power (Tony Blair) wagged along.
Then somewhere down the line talk about putting Baghdad population to "Shock and Awe" strategy came to fore and Saddam was said to possess WMD.
Shock and Awe happened and Saddam did not use any of his WMDs, neither were they found. He was later found (gassed) inside a cat hole, tried for killing 150 shias (mind you....not for using chemical weapons against Iran, Kurds or invading Kuwait) and now executed. He was sent as a sacrifice to God, symbolically, on the dawn of the Eid day.
The very act of hanging Saddam on Eid Day where Muslims slaughter a sheep to feed poor and hungry and seek blessings from Almighty is nothing but 'psychological warfare' on Muslims hearts and minds, played by US/UK combine along with their military.
In a nutshell, Muslims slaughter a sheep on this day in order to simulate Abraham(pbuh) acting upon his dream of God Almighty asking him to sacrifice his most beloved possession in the way of God. He kept seeing the same dream despite giving away his wealth/sheeps and camels until he decided that nothing is left with him that's more dearer than his only son, Ismael. So off he went to sacrifice him and God instead, miraculously replaced ismael with a sheep, whom he slaughtered while his eyes were closed for he could not see the blood pouring out of his own son. That's the story for you guys, just in case you wanted to know...
And No!!! Executing Saddam on the day of Eid is not about disregard to Muslim sensitivities but provocation in it's worst form. Something, which would make every moderate (majority) Muslim believe in what Osama and Saddam maintained all this while, that this war, is about, war between Christianity/Zionism trying to subjugate/steal everything that's dear to Islam Muslims. Roll back, whatever little progress they have done and keep them forever entrenched in medieval ages..and quite frankly, with inner sectarian hatred to exploit, it's not an uphill task at all.
I wont say that Saddam was a saint but even after being, hanged Saddam had won this war as Bush family's two generations couldn't bring him down or his regime by democratic and fair means. Bush will continue to play dirty game all over the world and keep killing thousands of innocent civilians in the name of this phony 'War on terror (nee) Muslims'.
Saddam showed dignity in the face of death. I wonder, how many of us are capable of doing it. In his final days he was reported to have said: "I am in prison but the knights outside will liberate the country. I call on all Iraqis, Arabs and Kurds, to forgive, reconcile and shake
hands."
Saddam was a case of an Arab puppet gone "out of hand", others are still in US kitty though.
That's the only reason America invaded, captured, tried and executed him. He was no more a 'criminal' than those who equipped him to commit those crimes, rather, they are no less a criminal. He wouldn't do as he was told, so he had to go. Welcome to the modern world. I wonder who would be found guilty of 9/11 if they were tried in the same way? This was no trial, it was 12 months of finger pointing in the vain and arrogant hope it would justify an absolute mess.
The civilized imperative for fair and humane treatment of alleged POW's brooks no exceptions. Direct U.S. involvement in felling Saddam’s statue following the military/prisoners/innocents rape of Iraq, the public viewing of Saddam being examined medically after capture, pictures of him in innerwear when under U. S. custody, and the circumstances of his execution, will remain as a collective blot on the modern world for posterity. They say they have filmed his final moments on camera and would take it to people's bedrooms, some time later. That would be nauseating. Spare us with those grisly images please as yet...they were only the prerogative of those who wanted to see them on Internet.
Where is the 'civilized' world leading to?
Nearly 3000 UK and US troops dead. At a conservative estimate over 100,000 Iraqis dead. All for what purpose?
Well, Bush and Blair have got what they wanted - Saddam is silenced forever and Tariq Aziz (remember, that Christian confidante in Saddam's cabinet), lays well entrenched in Washington's corridors. Out of sight and out of mind.
But the stink of the illegal invasion of Iraq and the 100,000s innocents killed won't be erased with Saddam.
Saddam has but Bush and Blair must pay the price of THEIR crimes too. Their crimes are crimes against humanity...unlike Saddam, who is hanged for charges of committing crimes against his own people.
