EUroweenie Hearts Bleeding Over Saddam's Death Sentence

The European Union is flying into a snit over the fact that an Iraqi court has found Saddam Hussein guilty of crimes against humanity and sentenced him to death by hanging.

BRUSSELS, Nov 5 (Reuters) - The European Union urged Iraq on Sunday not to carry out the death sentence passed on Iraq's former leader Saddam Hussein after his conviction for crimes against humanity.

"The EU opposes capital punishment in all cases and under all circumstances, and it should not be carried out in this case either," Finland, current holder of the rotating EU presidency, said in a statement.

Apparently the "rotating presidency" business is a symbolic reference to Europe's current status of circling the toilet bowl as Islamist extremists burn their cities and murder their citizens with impunity.

The Iraqis have jurisdiction, and will ultimately decide Saddam's fate, but they don't seem to be in the mood for mincing nancy-boy measures with Saddam. However, the Euroweenies' pleas for the misunderstood Butcher of Baghdad have touched my heart, and I'd like to toss them a bone. I think that we should stop executing convicted serial killers here in the United States. I propose instead that they be exiled...to Europe.

1 The Butcher of Baghdad is much too old for the Europeans to condone his execution. They have a strict age limit when it comes to killing their citizens. Due to their compassionate ethical standards, they wont execute anyone over 9 months in age--unless they're sick, of course.

2 I'd love to see them show even a trace of outrage, when a teenage girl gets the death sentence, for not letting herself get raped.

USA all the way!

3 Where is the EU outrage to all sharia condoned executions?

The EU must be demolished.    It is nothing but an Arab Islamic tool as useless as the UN.  Both should be smoldering embers in the halls of eternal shame.

4 HE should be shipped to the office of the EU President, right after the execution.

5 Can't believe the the Euweenies wish that a man who has killed thousands should spend his life in prison eating well and watching television. But, can we just blame the Euweenies? We have our own assholes who would do the same. Example: Puddlebrain.

6 The EU opposes capital punishment

But the Iraqis don't.   That's not their culture.  But notice how according to these Leftists multi-culturalism is FANTASTIC within European borders, but heaven forbid the Iraqis practice their own cultural values within their own national borders.  That would be...wrong!  Welcome to the upside down world of the Left.  It's a mental disorder.

7 Are these the very same Europeans who want to kill imperfect babies when they are born?  They want to spare the poor, poor parents from having to raise and take care of  damaged children. 
 
These are the Europeans that are wringing their hands over the proposed execution of Saddam?
 
They have their priorities backwards.

8 I knew this was going to happen. First they catch him or kill him (I think they’d rather have killed him), then it’s off to the Show Trial where only limited charges are brought and no new light is cast on his regime, and it’s off to a quick hanging. Hands washed and dried. Now, I know the conservative voters are too stupid and incurious to feel this way, but don’t the rest of us want to hear what this man has to say? Don’t we want full investigations of all his allegedly nefarious activities? What about the UN/Oil For Food scandal (I thought you sleazy, lying cons at least cared about that!)? Anybody curious? Don’t we want to know what was really going on in Saddam’s Iraq - the weapons, the oppression, the corruption? No? I mean, sure, we know that we have to take his words for what they’re worth, but don’t we want to at least hear them? What about his alleged ties to terrorists, stupid fuckin' cons? Wouldn’t we want to hear what he has to say about that? No? Afterall, Iraq is the “Central Front” in the idiotic “War on Terror,” isn’t it?

Sheesh.

Jersey McJones: The Ted Bundy argument? Didn't work for him, either. But why are you pretending that treasonous retardates, such as yourself, care one whit about Saddam's victims or crimes?

10 Jersey McJones: The United States did not try him or sentence him. No America was on the court. The Iraqis did. That is their justice system. Not ours. We captured him and turned him over to the Iraqi government. Why do you jerks continue to blame us? Is it lack of knowledge or just so wrapped up in the hate our government democratic bullshit. We purposely let the Iraqis do their own thing so idiots like you wouldn't be able to blame America for the justice given to this murderer of his own. But you idiots do it anyway. Just stupid. Just stupid. Nothing more. Just stupid.

11 It's almost impossible to believe that the Europeans would not have executed Hitler had they caught him.

Was it wrong for the Italians to execute Mussolini?

Would it be wrong for the North Koreans to execute their fanatic dictator?

NOT executing Saddam would be a major mistake, the Europeans have apparently forgotten Napolien's return to power after he escaped from prison.

But heck why study History, the Germans hardly raised their voices after their defeat in WWI.

And WHERE are you going to keep him. Perhaps the Finns would like to experience suicide bombers if they house him.

He has to executed, if he is indeed guilty, and I think the Kurds can provide ample evidence of a crime so horrendous.

Nothing that we have done in conducting this war is even in the same arena. Saddam, Hitler, Stalin, Pol Pot, and Kim Jun ILL (pardon my spelling) belong to a special club.


The tragedy was not that we went to Iraq, but that he did not look out the window one morning and find the world standing there.

The world watched a million Ruwands beat each other to death, where were the Europeans? Wringing their hands...

Watching your neighbor beat his wife to death is not non violence, it's cowardice..

12 What's the matter, sleazy cons?
 
Don't we want to investigate the UN Oil For Food scandal?
 
What about all Saddam's other crimes?
 
What about the WMD?
 
What if he did have WMD and they're out there somewhere now?
 
What about Saddam's ties to terrorists?
 
What about his attack on Israel during the Gulf War?
 
Not curious at all, sleazy cons?
 
You lying fuckin' sleazy scmbags.
 
You know damned well that he's being shut up to conceal what a scum, piece of shit, pile of asses you sleazy morons have put into office ever since Reagan, that douchebag rotting in hell. You are bad people.  Bad, cowardly, cheap, narrow minded, bigotted, sleazy, cheating, lying, murderous sacks of crap.  Every last one of you.

13 This is a sham concocted by Washington and enforced in Iraq to mock Saddam.  I think Bush deserves the same trreatment for HIS war crimes and crimes against humanity.
