Saddam's days are numbered. Hell (and this is where he will be going), his minutes are numbered...

Saddam Counting the Minutes
He’s taking the fall this weekend.
Former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein, sentenced to death for his role in 148 killings in 1982, will have his sentence carried out by Sunday, NBC News reported Thursday. According to a U.S. military officer who spoke on condition of anonymity, Saddam will be hanged before the start of the Eid religious holiday, which begins this Sunday.
The hanging could take place as early as Friday, NBC’s Richard Engel reported.
The U.S. military received a formal request from the Iraqi government to transfer Saddam to Iraqi authorities, NBC reported on Thursday, which is one of the final steps required before his execution.
It would have been nice if he could have been tried for all of his deeds but this would have dragged on for years and years. Best to just get him off the earth now -- he will not be missed. He kept his people in repression and poverty while he lived the life of luxury. Well, it is time to pay the butchers bill for that lifestyle.
Here is hoping they go after that fat-boi al-Sadr next. Got one of his top aides recently -- need to cut this cancer off at the head though.
