Re: I finally have 1 good thing to say about Saddam.
saddam utters a few words about peace and you guys think he has repented
and armughal bhai you think saddam was a sunni muslim?....he was a pagan ...dont you remember the monuments to nebuchadnazzar and "hammurabi" brigades of republican guards.....
taliban who were sunni muslims are FAR BETTER than him
saddam's repression of shias had political rather than religious motivation (unlike the taliban) ....the distinction should not be forgotten

Zombie: why not bring Islam into it? Islam is a superior religion compared to the rest...and rulers of "Islamic" countries should be held accountable to a higher level as well! esp if they did everything in the name of Islam! I agree, he was pushed by the US and other superpowers for some things, and they're the ones holding him accountable...the fact remains however, that it was him in the end who did everything...and better to have 39 theives left compared to 40, even if it is the rest who get rid of that 1 theif...

Islamic countries!! ALL of them are MUSLIM majority countries , not Islamic. They are no different then ANY other country in the world ruled by tyrants or so called democracy. You dun NEED to look in Quran or in Islamic laws when it comes to dealing with barbarism. ones commonsense should be enough for this.
Atleast we came to agreeing that remaining 39 are thieves as well. :) but you are missing the point again.. My stance on this issue is that ALL of them, who were involved or HELPING him should be brought to justice. I would say that again that he GOT what he deserved BUT from WRONG people. It was fine by me if he was getting the same punishment or even worse (like dipped in boiling oil) from an independent justice system.
