Baghdad Burning


Oops.

Apparently the timing of Saddam's execution wass even worse than most of us thought.

Of course, we don't believe in executions anyway, so what the hell do we know?

Baghdad Burning:

A Lynching...

It's official. Maliki and his people are psychopaths. This really is a new low. It's outrageous- an execution during Eid. Muslims all over the world (with the exception of Iran) are outraged. Eid is a time of peace, of putting aside quarrels and anger- at least for the duration of Eid.

This does not bode well for the coming year. No one imagined the madmen would actually do it during a religious holiday. It is religiously unacceptable and before, it was constitutionally illegal. We thought we'd at least get a few days of peace and some time to enjoy the Eid holiday, which coincides with the New Year this year. We've spent the first two days of a holy holiday watching bits and pieces of a sordid lynching.This does not bode well for the coming year. No one imagined the madmen would actually do it during a religious holiday.
