Saddam Execution Video
The Execution of Saddam Hussein
This video seems odd to me, calculated sloppiness with the camera as well as poor angles…
Baghdad, Iraq (AHN) - Former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein has been executed at a 6:00 a.m. hanging in Baghdad.
Iraqi officials say as Hussein stood on the gallows he was handed a red card; the official order for his death, signed by the Chief Judge. The card was symbolic, as it was a staple of the many state-sponsored executions under the Hussein regime in Iraq.
Court officials in Iraq also confirm that Saddam Hussein was executed on his own, despite his codefendants also being sentenced to death for their roles in a 1982 massacre in Dujail. The execution was photographed and taped, as is the legal custom for executions in Iraq.
In the U.S., Pentagon spokesman Byan Whitman confirms that American, “forces in Iraq are obviously at a high state of alert at this time because of the environment that they operate in and because of the current security situation.”
According to CNN, Hussein met with two of his half-brothers, Sabawi and Wathban Ibrahim Hassan al-Tikriti in his cell before the execution. One of Saddam’s defense lawyers, Badie Aref, says “President Saddam was just bracing for the worst, so he wanted to see his brothers and pass on some messages and instructions to his family.”
Since his capture in 2003, Saddam has been in U.S. custody and was transferred to Iraqi authorities only hours before the execution.
