I will say that I believe his trial was nothing more than a sham, and that he was a "dead man" from the moment he was drug from his spider hole. The whole thing was just a huge joke.

So why should we be at all surprised to discover that his "execution" more closely resembled a public lynching than a state sponsored execution? Even if Sadaam didn't deserve anything more dignified than what he got...the rest of the world did. That was just pathetic.
