Rumor has it that Hussein has been executed
Saddam Hussein was hanged at dawn is the report for the past hours in the Mainstream Media groups. However, some are careful and watchful before reporting the incident as truth. While many of the top government leaders around the world have already commented on the news of Saddam’s demise, the stories that are coming out have too many conflicts to be ruled as a fact.
Conflicts in the many articles that have been coming out in the past hours:
Where the execution was held. There were reports of two places where the execution was to be held and now as the stories are released it appears that he was hanged at both places.
Three men were executed. There have been reports that all three men scheduled to be executed were hanged at dawn, one was Saddam’s half-brother Barzan Ibrahim, while other reports say that the only one executed was Saddam Hussein.
The news of the death of Hussein did spring up a series of events in Iraq and around the world, however the good news is that none of the events reported have been violent. For me, it is still a wait and see at this time. I am not convinced at the series of articles that have been released as to the completeness of the reports , but the official witnesses seem to agree on one fact and that is that Saddam Hussein remained calm and refused to have his face covered before the hanging.
