BAGHDAD, Iraq -- If he's convicted at his Baghdad trial and sentenced to death, Saddam Hussein said he'd rather be shot than hanged.
The request came during his first trial appearance in more than a month.

The ex-Iraqi leader has been combative, complaining he was brought to court against his will. He also has challenged the authority of the court rejecting the panel as a tool of the American occupation.

Executions in Iraq are normally by hanging, but Saddam said, as a military man, he'd choose firing squad.

Request granted, providing his balls get lobbed off first!

Any Volunteers???;) :D

Why don't they just shoot him in the legs and then hang him? That would cover both his request and the norm for execution in Iraq.

I just spent 30 minutes trying to find if any bookies are offering odds on Saddam's aquital. Nothing to be found. I guess even compulsive gamblers have common sense now and then! :D

I want to volunteer for the firing squad! (jumping up and down, hand raised hollering ME, ME, ME!)

Wouldn't do no good to start a pool here - we would all be betting on the same thing.

[Ironrider]

Well...we could start one on bullet placement, I guess .....

[Marine84]

yeah, yeah............that's the ticket..............bullet placement

Or we could start nominations? :idea:

Which Marine do you think deserves to put the bullet into Saddam?

[outlaw3179]

Ill see if I can borrow a ma-deuce from the armory.

[hrscowboy]

let me hang him by his toes and beat on him alittle then we'll put him up on a camel and drop the noose on him and as he is takin his last breath cut his gonads off and then shoot him..

Danged. I'd love to do it!! But there are those who are now serving in the Marine Corps who once lived under Saddams rule and thumb. Marines who had family members imprisoned, raped, tortured and killed. Some of the Marines were even imprisoned by Saddam and came to the US after they were released or escaped. (Oh, and other service members too.) I'd think they deserve first dibs on being a part of any firing line or hanging party. And if there's room for me then by all means add me to the rolls.

I Was Thinking Maybe A Larger Caliber...say 155mm

[redneck13]

:banana: :flag: :!: I agree with Angel, and I think everyone must have a live bullet, oh hell a full mag. not just a few, maybe one or two, with the real bullets. Whatever he wants, is good, as he knows he's goin' to get his "Virgin's."

[Camper51]

Cut off his gonads??? nah let me use an m-16 on the right one, someone else can have the left one...

.

Put him in a pig sty.

Smear him with bacon grease.

Feed him ham hocks.

Splatter him with pork blood.


Anything to do with pork.

That'll screw up his world and keep the virgins at bay.


No matter how he is 'executed', he will be a martyr to most. So why let it be a fast demise? If he want's to go on a starvation diet, let him. Drop in and check on him every few days and leave a plate full of pork delicacies, just in case he gets hungry.
