Saddam: Captured
 

If you haven't heard, they finally found him and he's alive too.

I guess that increases Bush's chances to get re-elected...
Anyway, it's a good thing that they finally got that jerk. Who knows what he was planning.

Yeah, I'm sure of it. :|

Well, it's about time. Thirteen years after U.S. forces should have brought him down, they finally did the deed.

Nothing like being fashionably late. :P

"Ladies and gentlemen, we got him," U.S. administrator L. Paul Bremer said at a news conference in Baghdad. "The tyrant is a prisoner."

what are they gonna do to him? torture him 'till he kills himself? or just kill him?

He'll probably end up before an international war crimes tribunal ala Nuremburg, get convicted, and be sentenced to death.

Yeah, that's What I think is going to happen. I haven't heard much about it (I was watching CNN a few minutes ago, but I wasn't able to catch the what will happen to him discussion) But as far as I know, He'll be tried for his crimes against the Iraqi people.

But I guess it's a great day for the Iraqi people. No longer having to worry about following Saddam's lead, they have a chance of a great future.

This is great news! I heard about this an hour or so ago.

saddam
 

Just heard the news....wow. :o

Yeah, I don't wanna be in his shoes when trial time comes around... :dead:

I wonder who will get the reward for finding him. I heard like 400 soldiers were on the mission when they found him.

Saddam...
 

Saddam will be held in trial for War Crimes and Genocide. He wont be tortured, just heavily interogated, also, no one will recive the reward. Latest news....

When one Bush failed, another triumped! I can see it now... I am in disgust. It is a common trait to go to war right around reelection time, and it gross. Regardless of the fact that Sadaam was "caputured", I will not vote for Bush.

Just caught the news, too. Plus a friend of mine on AIM comes up saying in capital letters WE GOT SADDAM!. Interesting enough we were just talking about him in CCD class today.

They had said that Iraq wanted to hold him in trial, but the US wanted to hold him in their trial, or something. But if he ends up in Iraq on trial, he's liable to scare those people back into voting not guilty or some ****, and getting him back into power and the end result would be the bombing of the US. But that's just a thought.

I might hate Bush and his way of running America into the ground, but I supported the war in Iraq, it was great watching 'em blow away the empire of this sickening madman.

You got yours Saddam, Desert Strike games have become a reality, now we're going after Bin Laden.

Sadly, this little capture has almost GURANTEED that Bush will win the next election.

i always expected the US Forces to capture Saddam right before the elections are held.

well anyway there's still Osama Bin Laden...

Wow....talk about history in the making.


This talk about Bush only doing this to get re-elected disgusts me. You think the troops just said, "Okay, we found him, but we got a YEAR until the re-election. Who wants to play cards?" Hell no! They want to get the job done!
What bush has done will saved thousands of lives that would have died under Saddam's rule. Go and read sometime what this man has done. I'm sure you would just love to be thrown into a vat of acid and left to die. :evil:
Yes, we have undergone many American casualties, but now our armies and such will be able to come HOME. We will not have to worry about another Saddam Hussein war, the threats of bilogical warfare with Iraq is pretty much dead...

If this war Was in fact a thing to get re-elected (which it wasnt), he took one hell of a risk. What if we hadnt caught Anyone? what if Saddam hadnt been pulled from power? What if the US and all these other countries gotten more adamant in their disagreements and started an attack towards us?
Worst case scenario. Bush could have Started World War Three. Bush would NOT want that. No one would. This talk about him Wanting to start a war just because of votes is reviling.


Give our president some credit. He did what his father and the oh so glorious Clinton could not. Sp please, quit bashing our president...

*remember those who died in Desert Storm. The first and second Gulf Wars. This is why we fight. We have done them a great duty. They did not die in Vain*

I didn'z say that the War itself was his election-propaganda. i said that the not-caüturing of the "king-terrorists" was propaganda. i mean tapes of Osama Bin Laden just don't lie around in some random houses, and a defenseless terrorist in a occupied country simply cannot dissappear without any trace.

The war was because of the oil in Iraq and nothing else. and Bush wasn't the one who pulled the strings, there are men behind them who are waay more important than Bush.

I expect George W. to get Osama Bin Laden around May or so.

You know those gag books you find in the bookstore entitled "Sex After 50", or whatever, and they're full of nothing but blank pages? After reading what you just said right there, I thought of another one to put into that series: "A Complete List Of Things George W. Has Done For the U.S. That WEREN'T For the Sole Purpose of Boosting his Super-Bloated Ego and Also in the Interest of More Than Just Power-Hungry Conervatives Like Himself Who Think the Only Right Way is the American Way". Sheesh...

For the sake of every other mind-in-the-stone-age Bush worshipper on here, I'll stop the flaming, but only because I don't see how it will have an effect since every conservative I've ever known is a complete and utter bigot.

Suuuuuuuuuuure, wait until he's re-elected, he'll start it one way or another.

I won't continue with bashing blind Pro-Bush activists, they will regain their eyesight one day, when a REAL President is elected, not one simply due to election sabatauge to further pro-war dictator scum like Bush.

LOL

That's rich, REALLY rich, credit for killing a lot of people? Pfft, where is the humanitarian merit in that?
