Good riddance....one down, and a few more to go....if you ask me.
Can't believe the bleeding hearts and do-gooders on here who are complaining about this just execution of one of the most evil men of the last 100 years, right up there with Hitler, Pol-Pot, Idi-Amin, etc.
I urge these people to have a read of the link below, and tell me, if any of the following crimes happened against you or your loved ones, would you want this man to live?

The mistake the Americans made in all this was to have this "trial' in the first place.
It would have been simpler and all forgotten by now, if the soldiers had 'shot him in self defence' when they found him in the hole, crawled up like the rat that he is (was).
As for Iraq getting worse with the news filtering through of Hussein's execution.....what a load of garbage.
More Iraqi citizens have been killed by al-Qaeda extremists and because of the rivalry between Sunnis/Shiites, than the Americans, Poms, Aussies, and the rest of the Coalition joined together....and the violence won't subside overnight, but I don't think it can get any worse either, just because Hussein has been executed.
