I'm unconvinced on the death penalty generally, however... I think its important that the Iraqis are the ones who are responsible for Saddam, so if they want him executed, if that's the way, then so be it. If the Iraqis don't want him executed, then so be it.

People say the coalition are still infringing on the Iraqis and then dictating them what to do. What kind of message does it send out if they can't even punish criminals how they want to? They wanted democracy, they have got it. They wanted Saddam out of power, they got it. Now it is up to them to rule their lives as they see fit.

If anyone does deserve the death penalty, Saddam does. People are executed for single and double murders. It is alleged that he has killed 100,000s.
