Video: Actual Saddam Hanging

Google Video; better delivery:


Revver - same video:

From Revver - Graphic warning. High traffic - slow response. Poor quality uncensored cell phone video.

Makes me think of Purim.

The AP reported:

The floor dropped out of the gallows, there was a crash and the chamber erupted in shouting.

"The tyrant has fallen," someone called. The video showed a close-up of Saddam's face as he swung from the rope.

Then came another voice: "Let him swing for three minutes."

Asked if Saddam suffered, Haddad told the BBC: "He was killed instantly, I witnessed the impact of the rope around his neck and it was a horrible sight."
