Saddam to hang - more trouble than its worth?

Saddam Hussein has been sentenced to death this morning.  In my opinion, all’s well that ends well.  Whilst I think the entire Iraq occupation has been a disastrous event in which the Americans have thinly disguised their true motives for oil with weapons of mass destruction and the removal of a dictator in the name of democracy, the truth of the matter is that Saddam Hussein being disposed has been a positive thing.  What will be the concern now will be what to do with the vacuum he will leave behind.  The pro-Saddam Sunni’s have been fighting for him and obviously for his release, but now Saddam will be martyred in their eyes and it will surely escalate the violence.

That great moron George W Bush this morning made a gloating speech and will see this as further justification, but what he should be really doing is either cleaning up the mess or get out with my preference being the latter.

I look forward to our own moron Johnny echoing George W’s words this morning as he always does.
