Enjoying your two minutes hate?
Yahoo video: <link> Watch Saddam react to death sentence

I don't remember us wanting to watch the Shah of Iran react to being deposed. Oh, wait, we backed that murderous thug.

3. Excellent point. And didn't we have elected leader Mossadeq
assassinated. Oh, I'm pretty sure we did. I guess some dictators with death squads are worse than others.

But, why would we all want to salivate over watching someone's face when they hear their death sentence? Is that news reporting or is that part of the extreme sports entertainment channel?
