Saddam gettin hanged vieo

Humanity likes to think of its self as something outside of the natural order. Dispite the intelectual accpetance of evolution, man continues to hold himself in a place seperate from that of the beast. It follows that the news agencies report on the concpetual sphere but fail to display for its viewers viewers the barbarism that is the true color of anthropomorphic existance.

I wish that the news would stop hiding the gruesome truth from its viewers so that maybe people would have a stronger response to the worlds injustices. To see the true nature of war, of excecution, and of torture would alter the cavilere western attitude of the toward the suffering perpetrated by tyrants and false prophets.

Analagous to the proverb of "the difference between knowing the path and walking the path", so to can the realism of graphic footage provide tangible fodder for action. I understand perfectly well that action in the Sadam context not readily plausible, but the logos beind the free display of powerful media can serve many causes. Maybe action in Darfur would be spurred on if the public were exposed to real images of genocide, maybe Saddam would have been ousted years ago if we visually understood the meaning of torture, maybe the starvation of millions of North Koreans would not go so quietly in to the annals of our collective conciousness if the imagry lingered in our thoughts because of its potency.

I do not ask for the gruesom becasue it its such; i reqeust reality: cold, cut, dried, and unfiltered. See the mirror, not rosey glasses.
 
i can honestly say that i have a decen tunderstanding of why this is happening/ happened. so u can shove it. u too scratch my back. and europe can suck it it. i am disgusted by the way ppl are treated on eastern europe. and the ways the nazi's acted. he deserved to die. and he deserved to be hung. i wish that there could have been a much more painful way that they killed him. and that would broadcast that.
 
fuck all of you. this whole thing means nothing... they got rid of one dictator. are you fuckin stupid?
 
I would like to say that I saw SWAP.avi the other day

Me and my mates are as insensitived as possible.

But still, nobody knows what saddam actually did. Nobody. It's all up to the media, and what they let us see.

America should pick a better dictator next time to put in power.

Also, americans should be carefull of the things they see. Lately I have started thinking that your newS may be slightly biased... hahahahahahahA

 
That is sick to be watching that, wether he deserved it or not, hes still a person and watching someone being hung is morally sick and I can't beleive whats wrong with you people, no matter what he did
 
i agree with cookscorner.

everyone should stop living in their dream world of force fed news broadcasts with our loyalties held towards only one broadcast station which emits their own political slant. it is a sad fact indeed when the only emotional response that we can get out of a situation occuring else where in the world is when its shown on the 6 o clock news. who televised the slaughter in Rwanda in April 1994. Who focuses on the genocide in Sudan or the relapse of war in Somalia with fanatical militias. No one does, its just tucked away as the fifth story of the broadcast with only 3 minutes of airtime to discuss a situation that would take a week to explain. I guess what it comes down to is that everyone should look for their own news. Everyone should read more, and not just one newspaper. Read the left wing newspaper and the right wing newspaper. Don't watch cnn or fox and then go spouting off like you're a god damn expert. You don't even know the half of it. Not even a quarter of it.
 
It stops loading before he drops...

where's the full version

he looks like he's prepared and shit from the part I sw.

I hope everybody who wants him to die feels ashamed
 
you're the ignorant one now. There are no "sickos" involved with any of the al jazeera network. Al Jazeera is a television station, not unlike a channel such as fox news. The videos of Bin Laden aren't run by the station in order to expose them to the world, they are meant to go along with a news story.
 
im not gonna feel sorry for him because he accepts his punishment, torturing hundreds of people to death is unforgivable and what you do with your last days cannot make up for it.
 
i completely see what you're trying to say.

but for me, the problem isnt cold cut reality. I agree with you, there should be no sugar coating whatsoever. but i also belive that if there is no sugar coating, i.e. you can watch the death of a dictator, i think that it should disturb people, rather than entertain people.

the only thing you should be happy about is that he's dead and that's that. you shouldnt be thinking up of worse ways he could die. or that you want to watch him die over and over. the information (aka the video) should be AVAILABLE to you, but gaining actually PLEASURE from watching it disgusts me. for example many ppl in here are saying they want to see it replayed over and over. my question is why? why would watching a man die make you want to watch it again and again. whoever the hell he is, this isn't NHL hockey you're watching here. this is a man's life ending, literally. how can the death of another person give you pleasure? Suddenly, it's ok to murder someone because of revenge? and let's face it...this is just a blown up version of revenge.

death should never provide you with a feeling of pleasure. someone is killing them, just because it's not you, it doesn't make it ok. how can you morally accept this so easily. watching someone die. it's one thing to be supportive of the fact that he's put to death. it's one thing to support his death. but it's another to watch a video and while you're watching this man die, you don't feel a tad bit of a turn in your stomach. how could you watch someone die and not feel disturbed. i think people should be creeped out by the video, not entertained, not pleased, not smiling. they should have dark, serious faces while they stare at the screen. there should be no grin, just blankness, darkness...because thats what this all is. dark.

if someone were to murder someone close to you, would you turn around and murder them yourself? no. But if they went into trial, were found guilty, would u want them to get the death penatly? yep. you sure would. so what makes capital punishment/execution ok? because it isn't directly you killing them? so ok ok ok let me just understand this. you don't want to actually do your own dirty work and kill people, but it's ok if your gov't (which is also comprised of people, men, who have to put ppl down)does it for you? i realize saddam's 'scale' of murder isn't the same as say, someone who breaks into your house and kills your mother. But saying it's ok for someone to take away another person's life is like saying revenge is ok. punishment is one thing, revenge...god damn. that's just foolish.

but anyways. like i said. my only problem with the ppl who keep saying shit like "i cant wait to watch him die!" is exactly that. 'i cant wait to watch a man die.' why the fuck would u want to be watching it. just know about it. or watch it once and while you watch it, let the dark images of all the bad things that have happened for it to come to this moment, and realize the world you live in. dont smile. it's not a smiling matter. he's gone. he sure is. but this is not a moment of light, this is a moment that reflects the darkest side of humanity. a man like saddam existed, thats not good. he did so many bad things that everyone around the globe was happy to see him take his last breath. now that's one hated man...but should we really be happy? why should we be happy to watch it. we should be happy a dictator and bad man will no longer be capable of what he once did. that is the only thing we should be happy about. the rest should be a cold feeling.

 
^I totally concur, it should be disturbing and that is the point. It sends shivers down my spine to watch terrible things but i feel compelled to see the real truth to understand the gravity of a situation.
 
i realize this i dont give a shit. i was replying to cooks which is why it was a quote reply, reply.

i had something to say in relation to what he said...my post wasnt directed at the 12 year olds. if that were so i wouldnt post as many things as i do in LM.
 
i wasnt insulting you, just pointing out that for the most part kids wont read what you say unless it looks like this

" SaDdAmm gawt PwnEd cUz heS gHay"
 
How do you know that he tortured hundreds to death... lets see... your news network? =because obviously he kille3d lots of people?

not like bush senior put him into power... no way! because that would not be democratic! fuck you all!
 
wow, just wow. he was tried and was found guilty. you really support saddam husein over anyone else in the situation? he tortured and killed people and ruined thousands of lives if you cant see that then you are a fool.
 
oh nono i know hahaha. i didnt think u were insulting me. i was just pointing out that i dont care if they arent reading it im well aware.
 
I was all excited to see the video. but then i found it and saw them putting the noose over his head and that shit is just too fucked up.

I dont wanna watch cause I want to sleep well tonite. maybe tomorrow.
 
iF i CAN' SEE THAT i'MN a FOOL? are you kidding? you know tht the american govnmnt put him into pwer, as a dictator? by america? that means that america is the bad force.... they are currently in power of the economic power, and the next dicattor will be someone who helps america YOU FUCKING FGS

if you like iraquis, then you will leave them alone, and you know it's true, actual democracy will allow them to have whoever they want as leader

but no! you will oppose that! fuck you!
 
can you provide some proof that the states put saddam hussein in to power, cause he forced the president before him to resign while saddam was vice-president
 
You think watching VIDEOS makes you desensitised? You're a cunt.

When you have friends, family or simply people you've met who have experienced and seen terrible things first hand you feel sad for them, knowing what they've had to experience. To say that you're desensitised to these kinds of things just because you've seen videos from your comparitively safe home is a fucking insult. You have a lot of growing up to do.
 
The question of whether he deserves execution is debatable, based on the arguements of whether death is a proper punishment for murder in light of the fact that many believe that as a principle of human rights, no person ever has the right to take another beings life, regardless of the crimes of the accused.

But what is wrong with all these threads about Saddam's hanging, is that people are cheering for the death of an individual, in some cases people are stating that he deserved to have suffered more pain in death. The death of Saddam Hussein has little benefit for most of the people on this website, and yet they praise his execution like it means their salvation. This idea of "if you kill someone, we will kill you back", is completely hypotcritical and wrong.

Simply put, there should be no pleasure in watching the death of an individual.
 
yeah he had to die, im just not gonna sit there and wack off to his neck breaking on a noose like some of you fucks, ya dig?
 
yeah seriously I saw another video on GoogleVideo, it was filmed on a cell phone from a different angle and we see Saddam Hussein drop. (nomensteven saw it too) I don't have the link anymore though I'll try to find it if you want.
