Word out of Iraq is that Saddam Hussein will be hung tonight no later than 10 PM est. I am actually surprised they are announcing the time because they had previously said they were not going to. The reason for this is the fears of what will happen after his execution. Many fear that the Saddam’s supporters will try to start some new violence. With the country on the brink of a Civil War as is, this would not be good.
I am not one for politics or anything like that but it’s about time that he was executed. He clearly deserves the punishment for what he did to his people.
God bless all our troops who fight for our freedoms!
UPDATE: At 10:10 PM EST, Arab television stations are reporting that Saddam Hussein has been executed.
