6. Yes, I guess Americans were getting bored with torturing and raping
Iraqis. Needed more entertainment for the holiday season.

2. Political Pornography
Now there's a sound byte. It applies to a lot more than just this hanging, although this is the most revolting by far.

8. America is mirroring Bush's sadism. And his love of blood and killing.
Interesting to watch a whole country get as crazy as Bush.
Pathetic too.

10. Disgusting, Perhaps, But Part Of Human Nature
Videotaping Saddam Hussein's execution may be disgusting, but it's something that's part of human nature. That people came out to watch and enjoy public executions is why moralists passed legislation to move executions out of sight and behind prison walls.

Had the iraqis publicly executed Saddam Hussein, there'd doubtlessly have been a large crowd of Iraqis celebrating his demise.
