Today I just signed on my Aim and I saw an Aim today thing that said that they were discussing whether or not Saddam Hussein should be given back to the Iraqis. I was just wondering what all of you thought about it.

i highly doubt that will happen. he hasnt even gone on trial yet, and he should nvr be able to be sent back from all the havoc hes caused over the years....

yeah. . . . . .ur righttttttttttt--i heard this but im not sure that saddam hussein told little kids ro something that he'll get them medicine if they give him the money but instead he bought gasoline or something to sell. And i also heard that he killed lots of people. His son killed the leader of a socer team because they didnt win th game.

of course he should be given back. the iraqis should be the ones to try Saddam Hussein, not us.

Why? Why put back a dictator in his home-land? That's pointless. Why even capture him in the first place?

we have to give saddam back to the iraqis, because they have the right to prosecute him. he'll be tried in their courts, not ours.

They have courts in Iraq?

Well.. I like that idea.. BUT.. there's just too many risks.. once he's back.. what's to stop some supporters from freeing him? Then again.. he might not have many supporters left..

Osama bin laden isnt much of a big concern now.. apparently.. the government has somewhat given up revenge against him.. now they're trying to rid the entire world of terrorism.. which ultimately.. may lead to the downfall of the US.. you simply cannot defeat all terrorists.. for as long as people hold such strong hatred as they do, and have access to weaponry, there will always be terrorism.. i mean.. what can you realli do to solve the problem? mass brainwashing? this war against terrorism cannot possibly have a foreseeable ending.. well beyond world destruction.. there'd be no one to terrorize then..

i think we have all the right to have him in trial. i mean, he did try to kill Bush sen., and im pretty sure hes done more harmful things to our country..maybe ill research it later or something. im pretty curious now mellow.gif

He did the assination attempt.. I think.. but beyond that.. there isnt realli much undeniable evidence of him directly harming the US

No, because if he is given back to Iraqis, he might make a plan again to attack the United States of Americahappy.gif

They already gave him back, a.

B, he tried to kill George Bush Sr. in Kuwait during a war... It is not illegal to try to kill the enemy commander in chief during a war... After all, the President is technically a military commander by definition.

I believe he should've been tried in the international court at the Hague but nonetheless having the Iraqi people (whom sufferred Saddam's tyranny) decide his fate sounds good as well.

why should we give back the idiot that we took forever to find. he rapes women, he kills men, and slaughters anyone and everyone. and for what cause? none whatsoever besides personal pleasure, why the hell would we give him back?

But it is THEIR country.. those attrocities were done to Iraqis, not us.. its onli fair the Iraqis get to try him, why should we? (this is going along with the "What gives us the right" thread)

personal pleasure? wtf??? Where do you get that?

okay,#1 its their country. i`ll give you that much, but everything was so unruley [sp?] there. women had near no rights and so many people were being slaughtered under hussein's hands. so you want to let the Iraquis try him.
heres what will probably happen: he could be tried, and found innocent [even though anyone and everyone knows hes not innocent.] then what happens? everytihng we did since March 19th of last year was nothing short of useless. he bombs the US and poof, we're off the map for a good couple of years.
say it doesnt happen that way and hes found guilty, then the Iraquis have to reastablish their country. that could take a while. within that time, certain places get a little unruley, chaos erupts and, well, i think you can figure out the rest.
#2 is there are a reason for rape? i mean, its not like anyone says: there is nothing wrong with rape! im helping the woman im raping! i should be sent to heaven for raping her!
gee, that sounds like a great idea!
so tell me genius, what other reason for rape is there? even as punishment, thats just plain sick, so sick i could vomit. so, if you plan on answering me, may i ask, what is rape done for but personal pleasure for the rapist? cuz i dont think that after the deed is done hes gonna get a cookie and a pat on the head for listening. chances are hes gonna crack a grin and laugh because of the fact he just raped someone and relieved himself from being kinky. _dry.gif
so why exactly would we give him back again?

how is it pointless? the people who suffered at his hand are the ones in his homeland. he in no way hurt or disturbed america in any way. we have no right to decide what his fate his. the people that suffered and lived through his tyrony know better than anyone his cruel, perverse rule. it should be up to them how he does, which he undoubtedly will. in my opinion, he should die the worse death possible, but by the iraqis will and decision.

Why will he be found innocent when there's so much evidence against him?

Wouldnt they have to reestablish their country even if we dont return him? Its not like we're returning him to power or anything..

What the heck? Why are you talking about rape again?

I have yet to hear your reasoning on why you are so confident that he will be found innocent..

Note the word "probably" in that.. and now you're changing it to not likely..
