U.S. Tactics Fuel for Islamists - OhmyNews International

Almost by default Hussein became a martyr. His letter probably won’t help, “Here, I offer my soul to God as a sacrifice, and if he wants, he will send it to heaven with the martyrs.” When he knew his death was coming he had the wisdom to know what to say that may cause the most grief. I’m in no way offer my praise for his past actions but I’m against the death penalty, I’m more in favor of the deep hole in the ground punishment, the worse the crime the deeper the hole. If attitudes change the prisoner can be lifted out of the hole but cannot be given life. Back to Iraq, this execution will not help the armed forces on the ground but will hurt and kill. I was US army 15 years ago so I know those are men with families. Anyway I can go on forever without saying anything but the point is let’s try to make the bad situation we’ve been put into by bush.
