I find it wrong that they forced shaved his beard. Even though he's a bad man he still should have the right to keep his beard.
I don't think he wanted to keep his beard? o.o; If I remember correctly, he didn't have one before he went into hiding. Just a moustache, which they apparently let him keep according to the news report on the radio.
 
This is truly a historical day for all the world.The dictator has been captured.Now ending terrorism isn't so far away
 
YAY! ^_^ I'm so glad that they finally got him! *does a victory dance* And they have confirmed that it was him, BTW.

Victory Dance? This ain't no time for a victory dance, when the soldiers come home alive, that?s when a victory dance should be done.

They shaved his beard because the world needed to recognize him underneath the facial hair that has grown. It's the same reason why Uday and Qusay were shaved before they were shown to the world.

Interesting how someone can have "mixed feelings" for a mass murderer.

As for mewthree, just letting you know how many people we're saving.. Let's see... in the 9 months after the invasion (I think), at 10k/month.. that's 90,000 Iraqis we've saved from Saddam. Yeah, it's worth it. Also, that whole "Bring democracy and a good economy to Iraq" thing.

I have mixed feelings for Saddam so I'm not happy or sad.
Certainly the capture of Saddam Hussein(sp) is certainly a monumental day in the demise of terrorism...but we must consider all of Saddam's followers that are still running around Iraq with bombs strapped to their bodies...Terrorism is when people have the belief that by killing themselves as well as several of opposing soldiers, they will be a hero in heaven. Saddam's followers will not stop fighting until they are all dead, just chasing the dream to die a hero and get a free ticket into Heaven. Theoretically, there is no way to completely stop terrorism unless we nuke all of Iraq, and thus all of the suicide bombers, but that will kill more innocent civilians than we can afford at this point, so you can see how conflicted the U.S. military officers must be at this point. We want to stop the Terrorist regime with as few American/British/whoever else casualities as possible, but that will be incredibly hard with th opponents we are facing now...

...see? I'm capable of making serious poitical posts...

As long as he doesn't kill me I don't care. I have mix feelings for most of what people call "evil" leaders.

o_O;;; Interesting viewpoint, at best. Must be a democrat.
 
Nah, he?s latiosspud. An interesting mix of views and ideas that can make him pretty unique and borderline frustrating. =/

I did see this, only because it's on every TV but mine. I don't watch news or keep up with any of this. He did look awful though.
 
Possibly? He is caught and is in our custody. Well, actually the US military's custody. They wanted to send him to the expert investigators right away to find out where the WoMD are. He is probably being investigated right now. ^_^
 
Our PM announced that US troops captured him, but only the media seem to speculate whether its him or not. Can't say much until its confirmed though, a bit weird that the PM is so certain.
 
They have taken DNA test to prove that it was him and it came out possitive. I for one am glad they caught him, one less evil to worry about in this post 9/11 world.
 
Yes, I said "possibly" because of those decoys he had. Terrorism will never end. Some people seem to have forgotten that terrorism can happen anywhere, we even had/have American terrorists...

Hmmm...All I'm gunna say is a disagree with part of that, and because of my lack of knowledge of the rules of this forum I?m not going to attempt to argue this at this point, I?ve already been in one very rough conversation about Saddam and the War today and I don?t want to inadvertently start another.
