I didn't even realize that was possible.

Yeah, apparently the Sunnis didn't think it was possible, either. And they're not impressed.

And we thought Saddam's hanging was a PR disaster.


ps. Cute kid!

Was he a half brother before or after the hanging?

Ibrahim don't lose your head over it, it's just a hanging.

Why the Iraqis chose hanging is beyond me, but shooting would offend, lethal injection would offend, mutilation would offend.

Ah well, let's let them all out, give them guns and say fire!
